TP: This topic is right on, saying no doesn't make us bad people - it makes us sane, healthy people who are standing up and taking care of ourselves.

I like this thread! It's so much more than just a number on the scale.
1. To know that I can wear anything I want to, no need to hide my body.
2. If I do an interview/audition and I'm not chosen, to know that it was for another reason than just being "too fat".
3. To have men give me those admiring ...

MIa, I like this decision because it will help you reinforce the new habit of no snacking. Yes, you'll need to do the seconds for awhile, but I think that's so much better than allowing the snacking to worm its way back in and eventually you end up eating more than you should. Starting with just ...

In 1980 I was 21 years old, and weighed 125 lbs. Heck, I was gorgeous! I absolutely agree that children were slimmer, it was rare to see an overweight child. And I didn't own a car, was living in Vancouver, British Columbia, and walked quite a bit. Plus I was into those high impact super aerobics ...

European Mindset
In the news a short while back, a comparison study was done between North Americans (Canadians or Americans or both, can't remember) and the British in terms of diet and cardiovascular disease. In general, the Brits have what is considered to be a horrendous diet by our standards: Beer, lots of ...

Life is Hard, Food is Easy
I'm posting a weekly thread from "Life Is Hard, Food Is Easy" by Linda Spangle. I hope it will serve to inspire and support many of you. It's one thing to follow No S, but it can also be another thing to stick with it for the long haul. I think that Linda Spangle's book can help with the "stick with ...

Deb, you are doing so well, and including a snack food with your meal is a terrific idea. There is no deprivation!
