Success

Yes I know there's 2 S days and believe me I use both of them. I have a weight loss support group I go to one Weds and so Weds after the meeting has been my traditional day for cutting loose and not dieting.

I wasn't ready to change that, so I use Weds and one weekend day (varies depending ...

Success! Sat and Sun both NoS days (since having my S day on Fri)

I found the no snack rule the hardest since I was used to at least 3 snacks a day. I had some headaches the 1st couple days, but now I've adjusted. I find a cup of tea really helps mid morning and afternoon.

Are you really getting too skinny or is the family just worried because of the sudden change? I suppose if you did keep losing past an ideal weight, you could stay with NoS but add more calorie dense foods during maintenance.

I've missed a couple days reporting but they were all successes. Then the kicker, I weighed for the week on Weds and showed a 1# gain. After all my hard work, that's frustrating. Now I'm questioning if this is going to work for me. Tho I do have to add that I only exercised one day last week ...

Thanks Tricia!

I'm going to call yesterday a success since it was an S day and you can't really cheat on those... but I still felt like I ate more crud than is good. I started with a candy bar when I went shopping then had cookies for lunch (that was the plan) but then I ate ice cream after dinner ...

Success! If I'm hungry between meals, I have a sugar free cocoa or some Citrucel fiber drink.

Success.

Success!
After first week, thought i had binged too much on S days, but I still had a small loss for the week. Next week i will be more controlled for S days. Planning on one sweet and one snack only.
