Jenny's daily check in
Hi all!! I found the No S way through a co worker. We decided to start this new *better* way of eating this week.
Start weight: 183 lbs
Day 1 (yesterday) was good. I ate my breakfast and lunch at work like I normally do. Nothing out of the norm until it was time for my 3 o'clock snack time. Everyday around 3 I have a little snack (100 calorie pack). Yesterday was HARD because I was craving a snack. To make matters worse my husband had to work late so we didn't eat dinner until super late. I thought I was going to break and eat a snack but I was strong and didn't. I had a great dinner and was good to go for the evening.

Day 2
pretty much the same as yesterday, had breakfast and lunch at work. Started to feel "snacky" in the late afternoon. I popped in a piece of gum (i think I read that was ok?). I left work at 5 and when I got home I wanted to eat SOOO bad!! I didn't, I fought the urges and drank some water. I did make dinner earlier than I normally do because I was so hungry. I eat breakfast around 8:30 and then lunch about 11:30 (my lunch time at work) and then there is nothing until I make dinner around 6:30-7. I really can't eat lunch at a later time because I have a specific lunch hour work. The time between lunch and dinner is the hardest for me, its only been 2 days but for me to not snack in those two days is HUGE!!!! I think I read the first few weeks were the hardest but I am determined to get through it! Tomorrow I'll start walking during my lunch time. Its about a 2 mile walk. I used to do it everyday and then I got lazy and put on a bunch of weight.

Day 3
Oh no! a failure?!
Did my ususal breakfast, walked 2 miles during my lunch hour and managed to wait til 2 to eat my lunch at my desk. I was not feeling too good today, having a grumpy day and feeling run down...basically pre menstrual. Got home and wanted to snack but I didn't. Made burgers and fries for dinner. I got half way through a glass of sweet tea and realized it was Sweet tea. I guess I didn't think about it being an "S" when I poured the glass. I drank half the glass and that was it. Day 3 and I had a failure
I "feel" so hungry at dinner time that I am over eating. I don't get seconds but I think I get too much on my plate. Any suggestions on how to get away from that? Obviously if I get less I will be tempted to get seconds...I guess its something I have to work on and find the balance.

Failures are part of the noS experience
Don't fret over it, just try to learn when/what/how to eat so that it does not happen again. If you are like me you will have many more failures - I learn slowly - just keep going!
