Susan --
Thank you so much for the compliment. I'm actually impressed with myself. I'm young, and struggled with a brief bout of anorexia a couple years ago and have had a terrible relationship with food since. It's nice to finally be getting my life back. I started No-S for the final time on December 24, 2007, so it's been about 10 weeks. In that amount of time I've lost 10lbs, but I do alot of walking and spend about 4 hours per week in the gym, so that definitely is a factor. The next (and last) 10lbs will probably take awhile, but I'm okay with that. Best of luck to you.

Congratulations on all your successes - you are a huge inspiration to people like me who jump of the wagon regularly.

Posted: **Wed Mar 12, 2008 7:48 pm**

Thank you so much!

I'm taking an S-day today I think. I've been working out alot, and have not been making my meals substantial enough, plus I've been stressed with exams all week...so I need a day to mentally and physically recooperate and get back on track with healthy, filling meals tomorrow.

Posted: **Thu Mar 13, 2008 12:29 pm**

I think you are doing a good thing - rather plan a special (recovery) day than blow it by binging. Enjoy your special day (just make sure you don't plan to many in a month).

Posted: **Fri Mar 14, 2008 12:43 am**

Day 81 - FAILURE

Wow, my first failure in 3 months...
I took an S-day yesterday, and just couldn't seem to get back on track today. All the stress of school ended today though, so tomorrow is definitely the day to get back on track. Gotta stop it here, and I will.

Posted: **Fri Mar 14, 2008 6:13 pm**

Ok, I'm not exactly back on track today, but I'm better.
These past 3 days haven't been binges, but I've definitely done alot of rule-breaking. I know the reason though --- the weight was not coming off fast enough, so I wasn't eating substantial meals and ended up letting myself get too hungry. I've been eating what I think I 'should' be eating instead of eating what I want (within the No-S rules, of course). I know exactly what my prefferred foods for each meal are...so, it's time to start eating the way I know I should, and keeping up with my exercise. I think I'm gonna start a new 21-day check-in on Monday...this time, doing it the RIGHT way.

Posted: **Mon Mar 17, 2008 11:33 pm**

I had a couple bad days last week, so I'm starting a new 21-day check-in.

Day 1 - SUCCESS

#1 - turkey and cheese sandwich on whole wheat; strawberries

#2 - kashi granola bar; raspberry yogurt; apple

#3 - piece of breaded pork loin; potatoes au gratin; mixed vegetables

I've decided that since it's spring break and I'm at home and away from my normal routine, I'm going to consider the day a success as long as I don't go overboard. I feel like that is more beneficial than trying too hard, failing, and then binging.

Posted: **Mon May 12, 2008 4:53 pm**

WOW....that took awhile....about 2 months actually.

BUT I'M BACK. FOR REAL. FOREVER.

New 21 days.

Will post later about Day #1...

Posted: **Mon May 12, 2008 6:41 pm**

Welcome back Jocelyn! I had to chime in here and tell you that the consistancy you had really inspired me. We ALL fall off from time to time, but I'm glad you're back! Keep up the good work!!

Posted: **Thu May 15, 2008 4:58 am**

Thank you so much! Knowing that I inspired someone really helps me want to keep going.

Day 1 - SUCCESS!

#1 - Kashi Go Lean Crunch, 2% milk, banana, iced cafe latte

#3 - Chicken pesto sandwich

Good thing I was busy today or I DEFINITELY would have caved. I'm glad to have the first day under my belt though...it always seems like the hardest, but now I won't want to see anything but green boxes.

Posted: **Thu May 15, 2008 7:37 pm**

Aw man, I hate to do this on Day 2, but I think I'm going to take an S-day...today has been very unstructured, which doesn't happen often, and I haven't been able to eat big enough meals to keep me going all day, especially after running for an hour this morning. That being said, I'm going to take it, but I am NOT using it as an excuse to binge or eat junk, but I'd rather give myself some leeway rather than throwing in the towel and REALLY screwing up.

Day 2 - S-Day

Posted: **Fri May 16, 2008 12:08 am**

You're doing great!

Posted: **Wed May 28, 2008 9:13 pm**

Finally! A green day! Yes! I'm determined to keep going, forever, hopefully! I am working until after 10pm tonight, so I'm going to be sure to come home and go right to bed, not even chancing the opportunity for late-night snacking.

Day 1 - SUCCESS!

B - 2 slices of whole wheat toast, one spread with peanut butter, one with strawberry preserves and margarine, coffee with 2% milk and a teaspoon of sugar
L - Lean Cuisine margarita pizza, gala apple
D - Large bowl of HOMEMEADE chicken rice soup (my mom's is THE BEST!)

Posted: **Thu May 29, 2008 1:51 am**

Day 3 - SUCCESS!

But it wasn't easy....I was tempted to snack alot out of boredom...and I still am because I did not enjoy my last meal. I really need to give up on oatmeal --- I JUST HATE IT!

EDIT: I snacked....I knew that would happen. Failure for today

Posted: **Tue Jun 17, 2008 2:11 am**

Day 3 - FAILURE!

Ugh...I don't know what went on here. I probably didn't have a big enough lunch --- ended up snacking on junk and eating dinner early. I'm going to try not to do anymore damage before bedtime, because that's no good...but who knows...hopefully I won't use the failure as an excuse to pig out all night. Bummer

Posted: **Mon Jun 23, 2008 10:36 pm**
