ohh, thank you jen1974!! and yes, nice to be in the challenge together!! ooops, i have also started this thread in the wrong place and i dont know how to move it to the daily check-ins... so,unless someone can help me do that i will keep going here untill i succeed and then open the daily check-in to continue... it seems that people find it helpful even after they get the habit flowing... so i'll trust that...
cedar - thank you for your support <3 yes, living with the forest with trails for joggers literally across the street from our house... and other nice things around the house are amazing... and the price of our appartement is dirt cheap for switzerland... im sooo lucky... but, actually, the owner will renovate our beautifull swiss farm-style house, the rent will shoot up and we will have to move out in a year time,... i'm already looking for other options, preferably close to our forest... that makes me sad and afraid a bit... but life puts me in perspective always (im originally from croatia, SE europe, lived through wartime there) and i think i can handle losing my forest to another nice piece of roof over my head...

but i cant promise i wont cry about it if/when i have to leave it...
so, day 6 of the nos, n-day -
success!!
again, 2 big meals and one lighter one...
i never felt stuffed... and, like many that write here about their experiences with nos - being a bit hungry between meals is somehow even enjoyable... it even energizes me in some ways... and food tastes delicious.. and i tend to look for more nutritious food - not because of the nutrition but because i somehow
know that it will satisfy me better...
exercise - almost 1 and 1/2 hours of swimming: today i was lucky to be able to leave work earlier and join my son in the swimmingpool during his swimming practice... great for my back... and great to see his progress!! and his saltos and how much he is enjoying water!! im so proud of him! swimming is such a beautiful sport!
at work i got to play some badminton with the kids... they already know i cant say no to badminton so they come and ask me to play with them and whenever i can - i do!
oh, and today was weigh and measure day... lost 1 kg... but body fat reading the same, so could be loss of muscle or just imprecise readings... whatever... nice thing is also, 1 cm off the waist size... but these are my normal variations... and im trying to wean myself of the numbers and scales... i will try not to do it now for 2 weeks... acceptable failure is to do it in 1 week... anyrthing sooner is unacceptable...
wow, this was long!
