Ok, first time check-in ever. I semi-started last Wednesday, because I had already snacked all morning by the time I found this website, so there. I was great on Thursday and Friday (no sugar, no snacks, no seconds) and on Saturday and Sunday I wasn't too too bad... in any case, on Wednesday, I was 237 lbs, this morning (monday) I was 235 lbs.
Yay no-S!

Ok, still doing fine. No slip-ups (hurray!)
Currently I have tons of easter chocolates around me, my son's birthday party leftovers etc. etc. etc. BUT I STAY FIRM - because I can have some on the WEEKEND!

Yaaaaay! You've got the idea!
I never thought it would happen, but now when I see candy or sweets in the kitchen at work, I don't even think of it as food. Or I think of it as belonging to somebody else: I would no more eat it than I would steal someone else's lunch from the fridge.

EXACTLY
And you can spend some good time on the weekend making up a delicious sweet dessert that's way better than candy
You're doing great!

Ok, It's been a week now... and it wasn't too hard... and I'm down 5 lbs (!!!!!!!!). I expect to gain some back over the weekend:
Today it's my son's 5th birthday. Cake, candy, ice cream, you get the idea.
Tomorrow we're going up country for Easter, to visit MIL... I have the intention to stay firm and not eat anything sweet and only three meals, even though we're on the road and I alwasy snack in the car!!! (Like my son, he's a constant snacker, but he's growing, and he hasn't gained a pound in almost a year!!!)
Saturday, it's the big Easter dinner at my MIL's. Now I have two choices: I can either do the No-S on Saturday, considered that I had a S-day on Thursday, or I have Saturday AND Easter Sunday as S-days in addition to the S-Thursday.
In any case, I will play it by ear and hopefully it's not going to be too bad. I love this diet though, because it makes me so flexible even when I go visit my mother-in-law!!
Big Easter-Disaster!

Well, not only was it Easter, it also was my son's 5th birthday two days before that AND I was not home on that weekend - double-whammy.
I didn't drink enough water. I ate more than I wanted to. I felt sick the whole time. I didn't really enjoy it all that much. I am up 4 lbs.
BUT: On the one Not-S day (Friday), I did fine and stuck to it 100%. I went out with friends and they ALL had ice cream, and I didn't even have a lick of it, nothing, zero, zilch.
Very proud (but sad that 4 lbs are back)

Ok, day 13 (all SUCCESS), but weight is back because of Easter chocolate overeating. I'm afraid that I am going to yoyo like this for ever.
Mood down.
Very down.
I'm not cracking.
