Well, four years later, good to hear from you! Honestly, I know people keep saying it's great houw you can modify No S for your own purposes, and all the exceptions here still represent exceptions to the rule. The odds of being a successful exception are pretty low. Otherwise, they wouldn't be exceptions. I think what makes it individual is more what we each put ON our plates. Just my opinion.

Re: Sammybunny's Check In
WOW...I have no idea what happened to my thread. All my original posts say *deleted by original poster* and I'm not sure what happened. Anyhoo. I'm back and determined to stick with No S this time around. I have enjoyed reading through all of the bulletin board posts and feel motivated and charged up to succeed.
I am, unfortunately, at my highest weight ever. I have gained 30 pounds since March 2019 (NOT A GOOD THING) and I have got to get back to a healthy weight. The BMI now says I'm obese. That being said, I am not in a hurry. I want the slow and steady wins the race sort of deal. Planning to track with HabitCal.
My plan: No S (strict, vanilla) + Exercise 30 min daily (walking, stationary bike, zumba)
Good to be back.

Re: Sammybunny's Check In
Totally failed at my projected N day. In a major depressive episode at the moment (I have bipolar II disorder) and just ate to fill the void. Tomorrow will be better. Did manage 2 short walks today, though. That's a win.

Re: Sammybunny's Check In
Welcome back Sammybunny! I’m right there with you. Joined in 2013 and have never stayed on no s for more than a day or two, always lured off by the flashy promises of other diets. Ready to commit to the sanity of no s! We can do this!!
Re: Sammybunny's Check In
Welcome back! I keep wandering in and out myself. Maybe this is it for both of us.
