Hi Kelela 92,

I know exactly what you're saying about being too hungry before a meal. I have the same problem now and then. I remedy that as best I can with a drink of hot cocoa which really helps. But there are those days when a hot beverage isn't going to cut it, so I will eat something small and ...

I say set your timer for 14 minutes, turn on the music and dance like you just don't care! See how close you get to the 14 and you'll probably go over cuz it's so much fun! You'll feel so good you'll want to do it more often.

So today I learned a little something. I usually wait till 8:00am to eat my breakfast at work. I hold myself off with coffee and cream. But this morning I was so hungry I ate at 6:00 am and had a big bowl of cereal, 1/2 banana and whole milk. I always get hungry about 2 1/2 to 3 hours after I eat ...

Dawn, I am so glad to hear someone else feeling a bit jealous. I have to fight the urge to want to start counting calories again, which is nowheresville!

my mom's chocolate chip/walnut cookies
Our bakery's kringle(not everyone knows of in Racine ...

Hay Buffalo Gal, you wouldn't be talking about Body Flex by chance? I cracked up when I saw your comment! I've done that one too. I still don't know if it does anything for you but ya know when you're desperate, you'll try anything right? LOL!!! I've been working on NOS for a few days again and am ...

Now that I think of it, we didn't get snacks at school or if we went to scouting afterwards. I went to parochial school and we got a milk break in the morning between the time we got there and lunch. Funny thing, I don't ever remember any kids not taking it. Was there lactose intolerace back then ...

Hi Reinhard,

I wanted to congratulate you on your book! I was on vacation in upper Wisconsin this past weekend and picked up the Womans World magazine, and low and behold there was your article! It was really exciting to see this about someone I "almost" know, hee hee! I've been following NoSing ...

Hi Dawn,

I'm so sorry I haven't responded in such a long time. I just happened to browse this site again and I'm glad I did. This is so much saner!!! I actually tried counting calories again, which as usual drives me nuts. I know that if I could eat about 1400 calories a day or so, I'd drop the 15 ...
