Lolly's daily Check In
I’ve had a bit of a difficult start to No S, with far more red days than green, so I’ve decided to check in daily and attempt to do 21 days of successful No S.
To begin with, I’m going to make my meals a bit bigger than usual, even though that might mean that I’m eating too many calories to lose weight. As soon as I get into the rhythm of No S, I’ll reduce them a bit. I’ve found sticking to three meals much more difficult than I expected, and maybe establishing that habit will be the most difficult part of the diet for me.
DAY 0 - Failure

Thank you 
Unfortunately I didn't have the best first day of tracking. I was so sure I was going to do it this time and have 21 days of success, then some friends visited me in the evening bringing snacks, and I ended up joining them and really pigging out
I think I'll count today as my first day and start again. Hopefully the embarrassment over failing straight away will stop me doing the same thing.
DAY 1: Success
A good day today, my first N day in a while. Only one more until the weekend

I'm a bit worried about today as I'm going for a few drinks tonight for a friends birthday and there will be a birthday cake. I don't want to take it as an S day, but the combination of having a little wine and friends encouraging me (I imagine) to eat some cake will be really tempting. I hope the fact that I have 7 successful S days behind me will stop me though, as I really don't want to have to start from day 1 again.
Day 8: Success
Nearly blew it, really glad I didn't now. I had quite a bit of juice , more than ideal but managed to stick to No S rules

Two weeks of FAILS
15th November - 26th November
FAIL, FAIL, FAIL, FAIL, FAIL, S Day, S Day, FAIL, FAIL, FAIL, FAIL, FAIL
Really not sure what happened here. I was doing so well with No S (for me). I really thought I had finally got it, and then it all fell apart. Spectacular fail day binges. At first I was so disappointed with myself, and vowed to get back on track , but as the fails mounted up I just thought 'I've blown No-S now, can't go back and post so many fails'. I tried to justify my excess as having a healthy appreciation for nice food, but without the limits that No S gave, that nice food wasn't anywhere near as enjoyable and was accompanied by the usual feelings of guilt and self-loathing.
Anyway, I'm back and determined to succeed this time. I really love the structure of No-S especially now its nearing Christmas, and there are so many temptations about. I'm going to try and make the rest of November and December perfect No S
