Floridagirl's check-in
Well I have been using the NoS diet since Oct 30th. My GREAT sister- howfunisthat got me started. Since I started I have had the total knee replacement on my left knee revised. I also have a 5 month old total replecement on my right knee. Obviously both of these issues as well as my diabetes and hypertension will be helped by weight loss. I am just like all of you out there and I have tried many other diets. I just could not see myself staying on the diets the rest of my life. My husband is retired and we moved to Florida to have fun. This system was hard for the first 2 weeks or so but now it is not so bad- I CAN do this. My clothes are getting loose and I feel GREAT!!!!I have started this topic because I realize the value of checking in and I also know that we can help each other. I have lots to loose but I know this will not happen overnight. I have weighed within 20 pounds of my current weight for 16 years.
Keep it up and hang in there

New day
It is a good thing that today is a new day. Yesterday I went shopping for the first time since my most recent knee surgery. When we got home our neighbors invited us out for ice cream in the evening to celebrate a birthday. This is part of the reason we moved to Florida when my husband retired- to make friends and have fun. Oh well! I know this is not in the rule book but I traded dinner for a chocolate sunday. It was good too!! I am just glad that everyday is a new one.

Floridagirl,
Welcome! How's it going these past few days? That is wonderful both you and your sister are doing this and can understand and support one another. I've been nosing for almost eight months and have found it to be life changing and transformative ... whoops! now I am being redundant
Look forward to hearing more about you and your journey,

Hello from Florida
Well I was not so very good over Thanksgiving. My three kids and my son's wife and my daughter's boyfriend were all here with us in our 1500 sq ft house. Crowded- noisey and WONDERFUL. We had a great time and My husband and I took all of them to Epcot as an early Christmas present. We went to the Beer Garden at the German pavilion!!! That is why I love NoSing so much. I had a great time- I was sensible not CRAZY! and I restarted again the following Monday. I think the holidays are going to be hard as we live in a retirement community and there are lots of parties and just evenings with friends to paly games and cards. That is what we are here for and we LOVE it. I would like to just stay on an even keel for the holidays and begin in earnest again Jan1st. BUT then there is the cruise in Jan. Life is short and I will just set some rules and be raesonable.
I hope everyone has a blessed and safe Christmas.
