Everyday Systems

Hi there,
I first started with No S at the new year. And in the three months to April I did lose a small amount of weight. Stupidly, though I decided it wasn't working fast enough and have been off the diet since. And what's happened? The pounds have crept back on (and more!) and I'm left with the feeling that food is in control of me and not the other way round. So, I vow, from tomorrow (17th May 2013) to check in with my progress on the No-S diet, putting it up so that you, the other members of the Everyday Systems forum can name and shame me if I fall off the wagon again.

Thanks to Reinhard for a great website and a great inspiration. A journey like this has to start some time so, why not now?

Age: 25

Friday, 18th May 2013 - Success!

Monday 20th May 2013 - Success.

This glass ceiling thing may well need a bit of work though. I may have to alter my British-learnt attitude to drinking considerably.

Tuesday 21st May
and Wednesday 22nd May
Both successes

I'm also noticing that leaving sweets completely alone is much easier than starting to eat them and then trying to stop.

So, I know I'm jumping the gun a bit posting before midnight, but I'm pretty sure I can count that as a "success".

I had my first major challenge today as I was round at a friend's house having already eaten when they decided to get Chinese takeaway. Still, my resolve held firm and I'm still green!

Same said be can't be said for the glass ceiling though, as I had three small (330ml) bottles of beer.

Friday, 24th May 2013 - Another NoS success, and a glass ceiling success despite the fact it was a Friday.

It is definitely getting easier (again). I'll be interested to see what my behaviour is like this weekend, what with me living in Germany and today being a massive Champions League Final party. The glass ceiling might well be in grave danger tonight, anyway.

The weekend was pretty uneventful. Saturday was almost an N day where food's concerned as I almost "forget" the restrictions were off. On Sunday, I took a few more liberties where food is concerned, due to the size of my hangover.

Yes massive glass ceiling failure on Saturday night

Yesterday, however, I was back on the right track with a wholly successful S-Day.
