Everyday Systems

this is day 2, i just found this plan yesterday...it's something i've suspected for a while - i've often told myself i'd probably lose weight if i had 3 good meals, and that's it. i tend to have 4 smaller meals, plus snacks. so here it is in writing, with testimonials, and i love it because it doesn't feel like i diet at all.

so, day 1 was yesterday and i did great. the afternoon was tough...i made soup for our cousin who has a newborn, and we weren't secheduled to take it over till 7, so i allowd myself a small bowl when it was done at 5:30 (vegie barley soup). when we went to her house, i had seconds because the bowl was so tiny! so, i feel ok for a first day although i know i can't allow mods liek that if I'm going to succeed.

today was great, except i had a glass of milk at 4:30 because i was so hungry.

i started the couch to 5k program 5 weeks ago,a nd the simplicity of this goes along with ti. i'm goignt to add shovelglove soon for upper body strength.

welcome sojo. I did that couch to 5K program and really enjoyed it. Hope you do as well. NoS is the only way to eat (at least for me) that makes sense. Look forward to your posts

thank you Denice! I agree. it's not as easy as i thought it would be though!

day 3 wasn't perfect either...i was at trader joes and starving and still had to go to costco, so i got some sushi and ate it in the car, then had a hotdog at costco. they were within an hour of each other, and easily would have fit on a plate, so i considered it lunch altogether. this just points out how difficult it is to have a good, healthy, filling meal on the go. i knew if i just ate the sushi i would have been starving 2 hours later and never would have made it to dinner.

and just now, I had 3 gulps of keifer... what's up with drinks, do they count as a snack?

hmm, green day or red day, just not sure...
