So it’s been an entire week on the No S diet. The first few days were relatively easy as I was enthusiastic. The next few days were a little more difficult. Now it has become a way of life.
There are just three rules and one exception:
No Snacks.
No Sweets.
No Seconds.
Except (sometimes) on days that start with “S”.
That’s it.
The no seconds has been tough. No snacking has been tougher. Actually the no sugar has been much easier than I imagined. Although it’s only been 7 days, I actually feel lighter. Not physically, but mentally. I enjoy and tend to savour my food more these days because it is several hour between meals. You get to eat whatever you want, just portion controlled and at very distinct times of the day. It’s also helped me slow the speed that I used to eat. I think it’s the simplicity of the diet that might make it stick with me.
One thing I didn’t do on purpose was to weigh myself. I decided to just see how this new routine makes me feel (apart from hungry at the moment) and how my clothes feel on me. Everything else is immaterial.
