They suggest skipping a meal if you eat a "big meal". I would not do that.
Of course, they wrote a book. Meet the new approach, reads like the "old" approach"...

This link was posted here back on February. Great minds run in the same circles! It is an interesting support. I love anything that doesn't dwell on calorie counting or jettisoning food groups.
If I had stuck only with foods I love, though, I wouldn't love some of the foods I do now. It just didn't seem like a good idea to live on lasagna, pizza, brownie batter, and cookie dough.
The one thing I thought was a very good addition to No S , but not necessarily for newbies, is having only one major meal a day. I noticed when I read about French eating that they have a very small breakfast, just some small bread-y thing and cafe au lait, the only time they add milk to coffee, and one smallish meal plus the big one, which apparently is often the mid-day meal. But they allow for the time to enjoy that mid-day meal, usually with others. I don't think American workday practices would allow for that. Mine wouldn't. Lunch is 35 minutes at school! And I think most Americans want to have a big dinner to eat with family. Though there are a lot of us single people out there now.
