Found this diet while googling information on the New Weight Watchers program, which I really didn't want to do AGAIN! It is simply too much work, and I find all I do on that program is think about what I can eat next. I have recently been doing Atkins, with some success, but I am craving whole grains and I know I have been snacking too much - I can feel failure is imminent. That is why I began searching for another way.
NO S shouldn't even be called a diet. I can get back to eating what I want at meals. I love the full plate idea, and not having to seek out special recipes which usually are quite unpalatable. I can get back to my family favorites and eat without the guilt.
I am a huge snacker. This will be the most difficult thing for me. I am also newly retired so I am home and I still have my 24 year old home with me so the snacks and cookies and TWIZZLERS will be around. I think I will be talking to myself a lot, LOL!
Knowing that I have the S days will be my saving grace. We shall see.
My daughter is getting married in July, so I hope to see some results by then. Here we go! I am starting on a S day, lol! Wish me luck!

Welcome. I just reached my goal on WW and I am living proof of what you fear. I am obsessed with tracking, weighing, finding the diet version of all food...it can be a miserable way to live. I fear the scale. So I started No-S about three weeks ago when I started my usual creeping up of weight on Maintenance. I hope that this way of life will rid me of the constant need to diet. I have vowed to only weigh in monthly. Very scary. Wishing you much success on your goals. I suspect we are on the right track here. Kat
