The No S Diet

I came across this and just had to share it. This diet seems quite cool, made up by Reinhard Engels:

No funny science or calorie accounting involved, just a few simple and mnemonic tricks for giving your willpower the upper hand.

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.

How could something this simple possibly work? Precisely because it’s simple — or rather, following the Einsteinian dictum, “as simple as possible, but not simpler.” For all its folksy charm, there’s a lot of serious, practical wisdom packed into those 14 words.

While there are other diets that work on some scientific principles and people report good results, this is very simple and should work well.
