Breakfast: oatmeal, raisins, vanilla soymilk
Mid-morning Mod: 2 ounces cheese
Lunch: tortilla spread with red pepper hummus, tomatoes and cucumber ...

My son was telling me that a couple of months ago, he checked his email one morning and had an order confirmation from Amazon for stuff he didn't order. Fortunately none of it had shipped and Amazon cancelled the order and refunded his money.

As I have been "rehearsing" my return to No-S, I have been using a little vanilla soymilk in my decaf coffee to tide me over from one meal to the next.

I like the idea of watered down juice, too, and will try that. It would be an easy thing to manage at work.

I've been off the wagon so much it's not even funny but I always keep coming back. It's like No S is the baseline I measure my (bad) behavior against. I eat mostly from-scratch healthy foods, but I just eat too darn much of it. I'm lucky, I guess, that while I haven't lost any weight, I haven't ...

After dinner, we had some errands to run, so we also stopped at Starbuck's and I limited myself to a decaf with a little vanilla soy. No cookies! :D

Yesterday was the kind of day that has, in the past, caused me to jettison No S and just eat randomly and wantonly.

Breakfast was on time...optimized oatmeal.

Mod on time..."Cheese @ 10." I can't believe what a difference this is making.

Lunch...didn't happen until 2:30, and then there wasn't ...
