No S Diet

Posted on 08/08/10, 01:33 pm

I have been looking at this weight loss plan and think I give it a try.

No sweets
No seconds
Days off that start with S (Saturday, Sunday and Special days)

Also I am reading The Thin Commandments and will be mixing that into the No S Diet.

  I gave the No S Diet a 21 try and I gained 2 pounds. I must need more regimentation! So back to counting calories FOREVER!
  
  Which just made me notice that no one has posted here in over 21 days! Where is everyone?

  I wondered about this. Where does portion control fit into it? And fats?

  Hi
  
  I too gave this a try Joyce when you mentioned it, and it is working! I am losing weight,.... finally. But, I am doing it the way they recommend: no snacks, no sweets, no seconds. On Saturday and Sunday I add one sweet each day. But I still do not snack or have seconds even on Saturday and Sunday.
  
  Beesley, the portion control is the " no seconds" part. You are supposed to put a normal sized portion on your plate and no seconds.
  
  This is really working and I do not feel at all deprived or that I am dieting.

  I wonder if it would work for me if I counted my calories along with it? But then that was the beauty of the whole idea.

  Calorie counting for me is the only consistently effective method I have found. I still struggle after two years of maintenance with my portion control and once I stop counting calories (or become more leniant), I go down a slippery slope and end up bingeing. I know that there are other methods and each person is so different with their food needs, routine, and lifestyle. I struggle with it still, and I don't have any good ideas to suggest besides the annoying calorie number counting... :(

  Hi Smile Lisa,
  
  I have found counting calories so difficult and time consuming. Is there an easy calorie counter or book available that is VERY user friendly?
  
  I will look at the S diet as well.
  thanks!

  Keep a list of your favorite foods and their calorie count to make it a little faster. That also helps you stick to your portions. I like www.caloriesperhour.com

No Gimmicks is a group for those who are losing or looking to lose weight the healthy way through exercise and cutting calories. We are all about making a lifestyle change instead of "dieting."
