My first official week of NoCount saw a loss of 2.4kg. A pretty damn fine effort, really. I weighed myself daily at home, so I could track my progress and do some experimentation.
Things I've learned:
Portion sizes still are really important. You can 'eat freely' from the restricted food list. This really means have a reasonable sized meal, it doesn't mean inhale a bucketload of food.
I've got much better at asking myself 'Are you actually hungry?'. The answer is usually no.
I'm enjoying the freedom of not counting. I'm choosing foods I want to eat (off the list!) instead of trying to work out what will make me feel the fullest for the smallest number of points.
Basically, I'm really enjoying NoCount. But it could just be because I've been counting points for a year and was overdue for a change.
I'll keep you posted.

WOW, I am blown away. Good going Sue! Maybe that's how I can lose my last couple. Thinking...
WOW!! Well done on a fantastic loss - but not only that, it sounds like it is making you think a lot about what you are doing which is possibly an even greater plus! :-)
Very impressive Sue. You really have thi sweight loss under control. Think I might need to actually read the NO Count books an dthink about it.............
Excellent loss Sue. I haven't been here for a while, and you look fabulous!!!!
Keep up the great work.
Jods.
It's really great to get a perspective from someone who hasn't seen No Count as a way to "inhale bucket loads of food" as seems to be the norm. I think it is on the right road to teach people how to listen to their bodies, and with the structure of counting behind you I think it will be very successful.
Congratulations on your great loss Sue. A 47.4kg loss on any weight journey is just AMAZING.
Hope you have a fabulous week :D
WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Awesome loss especially so close to goal! Less than 7 kilos to go now is that right??? :) Fantastic work!
Great loss Sue - that's amazing!!! Pleased that No Count is working for you - Lots of good ideas there but finding some of the choices a bit limited - but that's just me!
Woohooo!!! You can do your funky chicken boogie dance now Sue, you're on your way to goal. Just around the corner!!!
Not only "slimmer of the year" but move over Fergie, I think you dear Smaller Sue should be the new WW face!
