kthelastnight's check-in
Hey all! I'm new here. I'm a college student warding off against more weight gain! Hopefully I can even lose a few in the process. My modification to no S is No sweets, no snacks, no seconds, except for FUN nights. (Fridays and two other events of my choosing per month.) Fridays are the nights I hang with my friends. I have gone crazy counting calories in the past, but if I don't lose or start gaining I may spot check

Exercise- None, blech
Breakfast- 1/2 cup oatmeal w
ith cup 2% milk. 2 tbl peanut butter thunked in

Day 4
Success!
Exercise-none.
Weight-125.2 seem to be stuck here. If it doesn't budge next week, I may cut back on some stuff. No doubt the most egregious offenders are beverages. It's hard when you are a caffeine addict who has an internship, a job, and classes.
Breakfast- oatmeal made with 1% milk and 2 tbl peanut butter, 2 cups coffee with spash milk, small banana
Lunch- Salad made of couple cups romaine, couple carrots, 1/2 tomato. 2 tbl vidalia onion dressing,, Can of tuna in water mixed with tbl light mayo, small apple. cup of coffee with splash milk
Dinner-Breakfast quesadilla(at least that's what I'll call it)- 2 corn tortillas with 2 eggs and few cups stir fry vegetables. Apple
Pre bed- 1.5 cup 1% milk. Starving.
Can't wait for my fun night tommorow.

2nd Week Begins
So far so good! Week one 6 SUCCESSES and 1 FUN DAY. Typing out my meals is going to be to much of a pain for me, I think, so I am just going to do weight and whether or not I had a success or failure. Maybe I'm deluding myself, but I will see by my weight if what I am doing is working or not. I got a spreadsheet online that converts what I weigh each day to what I am anticipated to weigh. I may get tired of it like Reinhard will suggest, but it it is entertaining me know. All I do is plug in a number each day. Simple for even those busy days. (Today obviously wasn't one of them, as I am typing all this out and downloading spreadsheets.
WEEK 2
Day one- 125 lbs success

Week 2
Week 2 Day 2
125 lbs
Failure-
My first faiure. I had too much caffeine and no protein at lunch. I ate way too much, despite it being healthy stuff. I don't even feel full now, but I know I way oversnacked.
Oh well. I guess I am not perfect. I'm just not looking forward to the scale tommorow, but it will keep me accountable.

I am the same way. If I do not eat enough, especially protein, it leads to overeating later. That factor plus my hatred of counting or logging food intake makes me a poor candidate for traditional diets. No S has been a lifesaver.
It looks like you are doing well! Keep it up!

Ugh Starting Over 21 days tommorow
Failed again. =(
R jean- Thank you for your kind words. It is such a relief to finally have an answer and to know others have my same issue.
I just had a bad couple of days. The solution for me will hopefully removing peanut butter from the house and eating enough at mealtimes. I also need to exercise in the morning.
Tommorow is a new day, and I am bound to suceed. There is no way I am failing this time.
