Everyday Systems

Pre-Day 1, I guess - SUCCESS

Well, I'm off to a shaky start. I forgot my breakfast sitting on the counter and am winging with something that is not very substantial. So, I already feel off-kilter, but I am not going to allow this to stop me! Why is it that when we determine to make positive changes, things start to go awry? I had more stress this morning than I have had in a long time and my immediate temptation was to drown it in the coffee cake down the hall. I am worth more than that, though, so I am sticking with the plan.

I didn't officially start until today, but I ate three meals yesterday and no more. I was SO proud of myself. I even made it the three hours until bedtime without cracking and going to get a late night snack. I am a big late night snacker - or well, I used to be. I'm not anymore!

Love your name!!
Peace and Love,

Here I am, again.

So much has happened since my pre-day 1 post. I am so fickle and so flighty. I think my way out of everything that I remotely feel like I might not have the willpower to do when it comes to food. I thought my way out of the No S Diet back in 2007 after just a few days because I just wanted to know that I was going to lose weight, definitely and for sure. So, I figured that I would choose something else that "guarantees" significant weight loss.

Well, those things didn't work. I lost 52 pounds counting very few calories, but it drove me insane and I gained 20 back and am steadily creeping up...and its driving me insane.

So, I'm here and I'm determined not to overthink it. I'm going to commit myself to the No S Diet for all of June. Simple and not thinking myself to death. 3 meals, no snacks or sweets unless its the weekend and that's it.

I'm taking a we'll see approach.
