just keeping track
today is actually day three for me so i switched over to the daily check in forum. Here is how it went:
Day 1: Success
Day 2 SUCCESS! even ate out and couldn't believe I could have what i had, but it was one plate and event the smaller size i use at home
Day 3 : so far so good but... today for luch I tackle the buffet! I have been invited to lunch by one of my dearest friends at a place with a pizza buffet. Now can I just get one plate from the buffet? hmm that will be the test. Or I could just order from the menu.... I will check back later to keep track.
question: my mom (God love her) doesn't know I am trying this No S diet and brought me a starbucks this morning. grande vanilla latte. now, I didn't drink but 1/4 of it because it was too sweet. but, do i consider this a drink or a fail day because it is definitely a sweet (in my mind anyway, i was going to save it for an S day) or do I switch today for an S day this weekend? Any thoughts?

A) Yes, you can stick to one plate from a buffet!
B) In the interests of clarity, take the failure, recognize it's a small one, and move on.

Great Day! good solid breakfast (egg&cheese on toast), good lunch (pizza bread) felt oddly guilty about this but it fit on one plate and a small plate at that. I am not so crazy hungry that I am dying for the weekend and my S days free for all. I was having major growly stomach this morning so I ate breakfast at home when I usually eat at work at 8 or 8:30 but I stayed full and was not extra hungry for lunch, cool. I am planning my sweet but not so crazy that I will make it for breakfast. It's weird this feeling of freedom. Also ordered Wii Fit yesterday since I can't get out to work out since I am home with three kids when I am not at work. But then , they should enjoy it also I may even try the sledgehammer thing, lol. Lets review:
Started No S on 1/4/11 - Success
1/5 - Success
1/6 - hmm not sure what to call this i guess Fail due to latte, but good rest of day
1/7 - Success so far only one meal to go
1/8 - S day
1/9 - S day
no snacks, no sweets, no seconds - that's my mantra and I have to keep repeating it to myself every day M-F that is.

Failure isn't ugly, not in No S. Failure is a day, out of many. When you start piling up more green days instead of red days, that is satisfying. We all have red days, in eating, and in life. Good luck tomorrow!
