Good morning all, hope you enjoy this S day!
I'm excited.

I have started a new daily check-in thread.

bizzybee

Always start on an S day!
I have a fat stripey grey kitten in my lap and hot coffee - life is pretty good.

I am making pancakes and sausage is a few minutes for the kids and their friends who slept over - I might have some too

Today is a big cooking day - I am making our traditional New Years ...

bizzybee

So, I registered this account in 2007 - it's been a decade of more starts and failures than I want to admit. I have tried every diet under the sun and I keep coming back here because I do want to be freed from food obsession and diet obsession and this is the only system that gives me that.

New ...

bizzybee

Oolala53 - led me from the Facebook group to this fantastic, just what I've been looking for, discussion.

So, my thinking is that my goal for the year is really just one thing. For the next 12 months, the only "diet" or eating plan I will follow is No-S. I already feel a little relieved that I will ...

bizzybee

Ah Monday. This week it feels like a relief. Thinking up snacks and sweets for S days was hard work and ultimately less satisfying than I had imagined. I ended up being not hungry for my favorite pizza and Chinese food.

But the brioche French toast I made was quite delicious and sweet and very ...

Thanks lpearlmom
Rowing is a huge part of our lives. My daughter really wants to be a rowing coach, she was a coxswain in highschool. Her passion for the sport is kind of inspiring. She is at a regatta right this very moment rowing a single and coxing a master's 8.

Saturday morning :P

I guess that Saturday morning weight should be my low for the week and so I have lost 3.2 in seven days and 7 pounds in 15 days. I imagine that from here it slows down. I am unsure how much being sick had to do with the weightloss. I do weigh in every morning, I have an app ...

Day 15 and TGIF

Yesterday was really tough it was my first night of having to negotiate with myself about snacking after dinner. I got through it but it was not easy.

I am very much looking forward to Saturday.

bizzybee

Day 14 and I'm still here. Right this very moment I am a little hungry, but I'm trying to wait till noon to break my fast for the day. I am picking up lunch after I run errands. Tonight I am making Caesar salad on naan "pizza", it's a family favorite and super easy to pull together. Last night I ...

bizzybee

Thank you lpearlmom, I am starting to feel better. Prednisone sucks though, it's been a few years since I have had to take a course, and it's awful stuff.

So, I am here on day 13, still on track which is amazing considering, I have had a vacation, Mother's Day and a major illness. I am down 6 ...

bizzybee

It's been a few days since I last checked in and I am currently very sick and asthma medications are killing my appetite, so I'm not really in a normal cycle.

So, Thursday we flew to Florida and I gave myself the day off from NoS - we went to a theme park and I had sweets.

Friday, I did great, two ...

Day 6 success no s plus Intermittent fasting 16/8

I woke up at 5:30 AM and thought "no way, I can make it 6.5 hours without food, I'm already hungry." But then, I did. I stayed busy and drank tea.

Meal 1 - Reuben, Greek yogurt with blueberries, a couple of tortilla chips
Meal 2- berry protein ...

bizzybee

Day 5 - success
I got a little hungry waiting for it to be noon but it wasnt terrible. I did two meals and a lemonade today. I just wasn't really hungry for my second meal. I hit my water goal, maybe that helped.

Meal 1 - smoked chicken sandwich with cheese, baby carrots and Greek yogurt with ...

bizzybee

End of day wrap up (day 4)
Pretty easy day all around. I did not eat healthy food for the most part.

1:00 - 2 hot dogs, olive oil potato chips (they were healthy hot dogs and whole wheat buns)

4:30 - berry protein smoothie

7:00 - fantastic Reuben grilled on the panini press, sweet potato fries ...

bizzybee

There were some very delicious meals over the weekend, Mother's Day included a pie. I have a bit of a " I really over-did it" feeling. I did try to stick to the three meal structure and I did not snack or have seconds, I did have a lot of sweets however in addition to my meals.

So, back to it ...

bizzybee

Thank you for the welcome Osonie.

I'm here and done with food for the day. I guess I'll mark my habit cal in the morning.

I ate breakfast around 11, lunch around 2 and dinner around 6:30.
B- two slices of sprouted wheat toast with butter and low sugar marmalade, I also grabbed a cup of Greek ...

9 years later and 20 pounds heavier, I'm back. I look back at periods of No S success like lighthouses amid the rocks. They were the times I felt at peace with food and my body.

I'm headed into Wednesday with two green days, like Bernie, I've got momentum. :P My husband and I both took the day off to get the house ready for our daughters Birthday party on Friday, do some shopping,have a nice lunch etc. So it's a mid-week date day.

I am going to be cooking up some quiches ...

4 months later and 10 pounds heavier - I'm over 240, (241.2) that's the highest in many years. I'm 43 and I Know I need to get a handle on this. It seems to be harder every year.

Ok, so I had several green days last week. I was practicing. Over the weekend, a ton of sweet stuff appeared in my home ...

bizzybee

I'm back. I seem to come back every other fall or so.

So, I know the basics, I know what works and doesn't work and I am starting tomorrow, hoping to get 21 days strung together. I have no need for a NWS day in the next 3 weeks.

I will spend today trying to detox from Halloween candy.

bizzybee

Had to jump in the Happy thread. I restarted a week ago and have been tracking on a blog. I lost 7 pounds this week! It's certainly encouraging, I'll try to remember it when I lose nothing for a couple of weeks down the road.

bizzybee

I was thinking about posting recipes, if I can figure out how to do a cut on there. I really love to cook things that are healthy but comforting and kid friendly.

I just finished my first week of the visual table and I'm down 7 pounds. I have no idea why. I do know I have had moments where I spent ...

bizzybee

I have a blog I am working on. I like the visual reinforcement, so it's mostly food photos at the moment. I will probably add some more thoughts on the plan as I get more green days under my belt.

Ugh. The stomach flu hit my family hard. We hadn't had a gastroenteritis event in many years, my kids don't remember ever throwing up before. So I'm finally eating normally again, trying to get back in the 3 meals swing of things, hoping I can workout tomorrow.

In good news I'm seeing the 220s for ...

bizzybee

Wow! I just read through this whole thread. What encouraging losses and a positive attitude you have.

I've been playing with the idea of keeping to no-s and adding up WW points at the end of the day M-F. Points are so second nature to me and faster to figure than calories. It would just give me a ...

bizzybee

So, lets see. I drifted for about 3 weeks after my last post and then joined weight watchers the week before Thanksgiving. Almost 4 months later I've lost about 15 pounds and I am growing really tired of points and the very slow rate of loss. Exercise has been good, I belong to two gyms and I ...

I was on vacation for 10 days and took them all as S days. I know!!
But I'm back now and on day 4 of the good ol vanilla style No S. It seems like its a whole lot easier to get back on the wagon when you haven't been off it long.

I am trying to make fairly healthy choices this week especially as ...

Peace to you and your family, I am so so sorry.

Wednesday- checking in

I just finished lunch, it is a half day so I have the kids home for the afternoon. I am anticipating feeling snacky later this afternoon. Something about being stuck at home. So, I am eating a big satisfying lunch, grilled cheese, tomato soup with goldfish and a sliced apple ...

bizzybee

Its Tuesday evening and I am finished with eating opportunities for the day. It was a good day... albeit rather Mexican inspired.

Ezekiel english muffin and greek yogurt with blueberries

Ate at a new to me place, across from new office

I want to be the first one to congratulate you on 21 days!
Just one more, you have so totally got this.

Yikes, I think I'm getting a cold. DD is passed out in bed. I got her from a sleep over and she said she wasn't feeling well, asleep for 3 hours now.

Reporting in with a good moment.

Today I was standing at a cash register with my husband and he saw me staring longingly at a bag a Jelly bellies. He tried to buy them for me and I said "No, it's Friday and Friday doesn't start with S." then he said, "Well you can have them tomorrow." I replied ...

It was a pretty good week. I managed to curtail the junk food meals a bit.

I am still going strong, one red day this week, but 4 green ones with no muddying of the water and better choices when eating out, I don't have any real cravings for this weekend, maybe a good beer out on the deck in the cool evenings.

I had to run to the DR on Thursday to X ray my ankle after 6 ...

Just posting to note that Dh announced he's under 160 again. Since we don't snack together at night and he doesn't like to eat alone... He was already pretty slim and is now back to college weight. So, No-S by proxy is working for him I suppose.

For me, meh, I had a red day yesterday. I'm not ...

Yesterday's food was
hot ezekiel cereal with blueberries, low fat milk and maple syrup

chinese take out, one plate

Burger King - whopper, small onion rings and a diet coke

It was a poor eating day, too much fast food these last couple of weeks.

I'm officially off it.

Today I am planning ...

I woke up nervous and a little hungry. I'm not sure what either of those things are about. I'll plan a big breakfast.

So, Thursday I had to fire someone who had been my best friend for years but we should never have hired. It was AWFUL. The combination of feeling angry and taken advantage of and the sadness for a friendship gone never to return.
So, I caved and while maybe I can virtually plate a bowl of frosted ...

You know what's interesting? The WHEN of feeling strong and feeling weak and what, heretofore, unknown situations pushes those feeling to the front.

Today for instance, feeling good, feeling strong then after a fast food lunch (which is allowable) I had to run errands with one very talkative 9 ...

I wish you luck in pushing that reset button. The road is long and full of potholes but it does LEAD somewhere great.

I have to do a soup shout-out. It is almost autumn after all. I make some every Sunday and eat it with lunch all week long. It gives me an extra serving of veggies (or two) and warm liquids are comforting and filling. I had soup twice yesterday, butternut squash for lunch and split pea (crock pot ...

Hey, thanks for stopping by and offering encouragement, I read everyone's check in threads and I need to start posting as well. I always feel like I'm bothering people in their own journal even though I KNOW that is not how it feels at all.

I could do a glass of red wine every night quite happily, especially while I am cooking.
I am currently saving it for S-Days, not a hard and fast rule but alcohol really affects people in different ways. After 2 drinks, I have an immediate loosening of my resistance to everything and I will eat and ...

I am becoming a fan of hunger as my own (non yucky) MSG - makes everything taste more intense.

Also, my kids are so hungry if they have no snacks before dinner. they don't dissect their food "is this a pepper? are these canned tomatoes? I like yellow zucchini this week not green."
Last night I made ...

bizzybee

Definitely Chapter 3. Except sometimes I actually jump defiantly into the hole, rather than just waiting to fall in. :(

Yeah, that's me.

I love this hole! you can't make me leave it, and I shake my fist at the sky a lot. But I can leap right back out of it.

I like this metaphor quite a bit ...

I made nachos this week for dinner, I used healthier chips and added beans and veggie crumbles for protein, guac, sour cream etc. It was awesome. The kids looked at me like I was insane and polished the whole platter off before I could "change my mind." hah.

It was the only meal this week where I ...

Perfect weather today, if it could be sunny, low humidity, slight breeze and a high of 70 every day... well that would be boring.

one spinach and egg cup pre-workout, 2 pieces of toast with PB, greek yogurt. I came home from working out and my 9 year old had made me breakfast, so I ended up eating PB toast I hadn't planned on. He had put flowers on the table, I couldn't disappoint him, and the ...

I have to echo the discovery that hunger wasn't going to kill me. I was terrified of hunger, sure I would "pass out". Now, I know that I can go for hours being hungry and be just fine. Its not pleasurable but I have found that the body brain connection is strong and many times I have thought, "Oh no ...

Ok so this past week was not wonderful, it was stressful and I just didn't have my habits and skills in place to get through it without bingey food behavior to cope.

My goal is to have only 2 NWS days in September. I have exercise pretty well in hand but really need to get serious about Vanilla No-S. October is a very hard month for me, my Birthday, my husband's our anniversary and our yearly beach trip take over three weeks of the month. So I need to come ...

Just noting for myself that today has been really really hard. I have quite literally been inches away from my mouth and put down the snack twice.

Feeling better this morning. Thanks for saying hi Deb. I take zyrtec for my allergies to dust and kitties.

But, in all the years I've been hyper-focused on food ...

bizzybee

Just wanted to welcome you back, I'm on my, oh, 11th try at this!

I figure every other try was a prelude, a learning experience.

Sounds smart Deb, habit is place now time to make some headway.

I have a plan to cut out starchy stuff on N days somewhere down the line. I'm still losing right now but will need to modify at some point.

bizzybee

We have 4 hungry people and big plates and often end up with 1/2 left in the pan. I just can't imagine who could eat so much.

bizzybee

Limiting opportunity is helpful in so many situations. My goodness, I do it with my kids, limit the opportunities to break rules and they feel more successful. When my dog was a puppy, I kept him crated when we weren't at home to limit opportunities for puppy mayhem. And for myself, I limit ...

Drive-by post to report I am sick, this time bronchitis...
I am so completely over feeling yucky all the time.

OK, this week I will post every single day. I had some issues last week, ended up sick and used the amount of snow days and Holidays as an excuse to slide back into old habits. I did not have a single green day last week, (ETA- wrong both Monday and Tuesday were greens, sky is falling much??) except ...

bizzybee

Oh yeah, need to mention , My S-days were pretty heavy this weekend, loaded with sugar. I was not sticking to my 3 meal ladder and I definitely had more than one sweet. So if the scale isn't moving much next Saturday, I need to remember Sat-tues were not light eating days.

bizzybee

I'm still here! My pants fit, yay. I can't believe its Wednesday. Monday and Tuesday were hard days but I made it through. The meals were big, I drank some beer, I had some sweetened yogurt with a meal etc. But for vanilla no s, they were green days.

I am hoping to pull it back together today ...

bizzybee

Thanks Deb. I am happy to report that when I actually stick to this plan, it works!

I am trying to prepare myself for the inevitable slow down in that rate. I know I will be here pretty soon reporting no loss or even a gain. Its just how things go. But I do get to start back to the gym this week ...
