Everyday Systems

From Shape Magazine: 7 Quirky Weight Loss Strategies that Really Work. One of the strategies is no snacking. It specifically mentions No S.

No S was the best part of the article.

Wow. It might have been helpful if I had actually posted the link. Thank you, Wosnes!

First mainstream media pickup in a while -- thanks for letting us know, raumgirl!

Here's the direct link to the no-s slide:

Reinhard

Woohoo, the big time is just around the corner now. Let's everyone get ready for the newbies on the main board!

love it!

REad my last comment and it sounded snarkier than I wanted. I'm actually VERY glad it was mentioned and regret only that it was just in passing. It needs to be a regular feature, though I think Reinhard's whole point is that it isn't that complicated. However, time has shown that implementation is still tricky. Or perhaps surrender is.

I think the problem isn't that implementation is tricky; it's that we've become used to eating anything, any time, anywhere. This has happened only in the last 40 years or so. Prior to that, something like No-S was the norm and no one gave it any thought. Our food culture has become a culture of dietary sloth.

I agree with both of you. The rules are simple. Consistent implementation of the rules is tough...largely due to the current food culture. So maybe No S is a grass roots effort to change the existing culture?!

Viva la revolution!
