Counting carbs/calories is a drag. Obsessive scale stepping is a recipe for despair. If you want to count something, "days on habit" is a much better metric. Checking off days on a calendar would do just fine, but if you do it here you get accountability and support. Here's how. Start a new topic in this forum called (say) "Your Name Daily Check In." Then every N day post a "reply" to that topic as to whether you stayed on habit. A simple "<font color="green">SUCCESS</font>" or "<font color="red">FAILURE</font>" (or your preferred euphemism if that's too harsh) is sufficient, but obviously you're welcome to write more if you want. On S-days just register that you're taking an S-day. You don't have to do this forever, just until you're confident you've built the habit. Feel free to check in weekly or monthly or sporadically instead of daily. Feel free also to track other habits besides No-s (I'm keeping this forum under No-s because that's what the vast majority are using it for). See also my <a href="/habitcal/">HabitCal</a> tool for another more formal (and perhaps complementary) way to track habits.

SUCCESS
I started the no S diet today and to my surprise i made it through with no major glitches. I had two small glasses of soda though that was my only flaw. breakfast and lunch were low point values from weight watchers to boot. yay me!
can anyone tell me how soon they saw results with this diet so far.

Hi Brandy! Welcome!
Today is my 3rd day on this eating plan.
So far I am loving it. My hardest time has been about an hour before supper. BUT today I didnt get hungry until just before supper!
I plan on weighing every 2 or 3 weeks.
