Everyday Systems

I have started and stopped No S so many times because I keep getting discouraged that I can't do it "perfectly." So then my thoughts start getting wacky and I start modifying or adding in diet rules and then I just give up.

But in reading over the Testimonials forum I was really encouraged by the amount of people who had to restart - and then it just clicked in for them.

So now I've decided - I'm starting Vanilla No S tomorrow. My Day 1. I want to be on that Testimonials Board 10 months from now!

Day 1: Monday: N Day: Success!

B: Coffee & 1/2 & 1/2

L: Croissant
Morraccan lentil soup

D: Wine

Normally I would just throw in the towel because obviously this is a ridiculous day of eating. But I'm going to try to not focus on doing everything perfectly. I didn't have breakfast because I ate way too much the night before and was not hungry. I had a date after work and when I got home it was too late to eat and I was tired. But tomorrow is another day & I will shoot for 3 normal meals.

I liked the dinner ! heh its early days isn't . Good luck for tomorrow

Thank you Gemma! It was a pretty good dinner

Day 2: Tuesday: N Day: Failure

B: coffee & 1/2 & 1/2
croissant

L: 1/2 cheeseburger & a few fries

D: cheese & crackers
beer

Had seconds on the cheese & crackers from my first plate. I have no idea why. I wasn't even hungry. I really have to keep reminding myself that I don't need to stuff myself at night because I am allowed to eat breakfast, whatever I want. If I am starving in the morning I can eat. This may take some time to get used to as my biggest reason in doing this is that I eat a lot at night and never in the mornings. I'd like to balance it out more.
