I've decided to add mods to the diet (I'm impatient, and gaining weight -- that'll never do). I started the No S Diet in December, taking awhile to add each of the principles until I was fully on the diet.
I reached a month on the diet this past Friday. Unfortunately, I am gaining weight with it. I ...

Re: Flavorless calories on the No S diet to reduce appetite
In order to reduce my appetite so that I am less interested in the S's, I am having a few hundred flavorless calories with a no-flavor window around it, an idea invented by Berkeley psychology professor Seth Roberts. In practice, first thing in the morning, I put on swimmer's noseplugs and drink a ...

We went to York, which is a fantastic old city with lots of history and vibrant atmosphere! This was both an early celebration of valentine's day, and also a special anniversary for us (not wedding, but when we went on our ...

This is my second time doing No S. My first time was successful and I believe I am having some success this time, as well.
I have issues with bingeing on sweets and bread and I am quite sure that is the only reason I ever gain extra weight. No S helps with this behavior --- which I am guessing you ...

So far, the 2 lb weight gain I've experienced on the diet hasn't budged, and all my core measurements are the same. However, I've lost two inches on my thighs. I FEEL slimmer, lighter, and my husband has commented on how I'm looking ...

WEIGHT GAIN *ARRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHH*
I have been at No S for two weeks, consistently (I added each of the NO S's slowly until I was fully on the diet two weeks ago). I have not had any failures (My HabitCal and Daily Check in are available for observation!).
I weigh in once a week, taking the average of three days' weigh ins.

Re: Guilt!
Everyone's psychology is different. Personally I found it so freeing to be able to eat normal less healthy food occasionally, as long as it's in moderation. The lesson is moderation, not perfection.
Perfection is in some senses the enemy because it can lead to immoderate behavior.

Guilt!
I'm struggling with a new phenomenon on the No S diet -- guilt. And lots of it. Diet guilt probably isn't new to anyone who's struggled with weight gain most of their life. However, this guilt is a new, strange breed. I'll explain.

Sarah's check-in! -- a California Girl Stranded in Britain
8) I stumbled across Reinhard's website doing research on an article I was writing for walking as exercise. Two months later, with it niggling away in the back of my mind, I've slowly added (at 2-3 week intervals) each of the principles of the No S Diet to my eating plan.
I stuck to it ...
