Everyday Systems

I have something similar to this. It's words to live by.

Today I started week 7 of No S. It has been amazing. The most significant thing I noticed so far happened on Saturday and Sunday. When I went to update my calendar this morning I realized that I automatically ate 3 meals each day with no seconds or snacks. The only exception was a small piece of ...

I posted this at the No S forum on Sparkpeople and thought I'd put it here too.

My mom put me on my first diet when I was six years old. It was a crazy diet where you eat nothing but a can of tuna and some toast for three days and then eat however you want for four days. Needless to say at 36 that ...

Yesterday was a red day for me. I was pretty disappointed with myself because Sunday was day 21 of yellow and green days and then Monday I snacked.
I did really well all day and then about 10pm my stomach was so ravenously growling I couldn't settle down to go to sleep. So I ate a bowl of Cheerios ...

I just finished my first three weeks (21 days) successfully. Woot Woot! I'm so excited. My next goal is 30 days. After that...forever!

Reading while I eat slows me down for sure. I find I eat less when I take time to taste and think about what I'm eating.

Last night my work place had a birthday celebration for one of our co-workers. All evening I was able to ignore the cookies and treats by saying, "We're going to have all kinds of goodies on Sunday for Easter."

But when our lunch break came someone thrust a piece of molten lava Chocolate cake into ...

It's amazing what I am discovering about the tasted of food. When I was growing up we were not allowed to say we didn't like something. We had to eat whatever was on the plate and all of it. Somewhere along the line I learned to shut off my taste buds.
Then as I started on the diet food roller ...

That is so awesome! I left sparkpeople a long time ago because I was so SICK of counting calories. If there is a team following NO S, it would be worth going back just to have friends with common ground!!

I'd actually like to see fun, random, everyday life type stuff. Having been a crazy crash dieter since my mom put me on my first diet in the first grade (I'm now 36), I'm sick of being inundated with diet, health, fitness. I don't want my world to revolve around food and fitness (or attempts) any ...

Okay so- Usually every year I give up something bad for me for Lent. Typically, much like new years resolutions, I fail by day 3. So this year I decided to start a new good habit.
I am 36 and was placed on my first crash diet when I was in first grade. That means I've been dieting for 30 years ...
