Thanks Leenie! :)
Gosh, another thread already! Boy is IP rocking'!! |
Ogdog13, I live in the Pacific Northwest, but I don't usually buy my Choplets or Vegetable Steaks at the local store. A tin there costs $8! I buy a case at a time through Amazon. Using their Subscribe and Save subscription service, I don't have to pay for shipping, so it works out to $3.95 per tin. Each tin lasts for several meals, so the price is pretty good.
You're probably not going to want to buy a whole case if you haven't tried them yet. I'd be happy to send you a tin -- as a thank you for putting up all those great recipes! |
Well down 3 pounds this week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Staying steady!
Week 3 coming up :) I fell like I'm in a really good groove right now....exercising as much as did before starting IP (4-6/week) and finding exactly what IP foods I enjoy and swapping out those I don't ;). I'm moved from the ranch dressing to just lemon on the salads. With the sea salt I'm really enjoying the flavor. Only side effects I've had was a massive headache early in week one. Since then I'm never hungry, have plenty of energy, and no other symptoms. :carrot: |

Blair.com has some nice tankini's that provide good belly coverage and I think you can order the boy shorts separate from the tankini top. With you weighing 150 ish, I bet you may want a size 8. You could order an 8 and a 10 and see which you like best. I have 4 or 5 different prints of these suits and they are well made and hold up good too. At 200 lbs I wear a 14 snugly. I am 5'9", I hope this helps.

Yummy! New favorite pudding. The vanilla pudding tastes like rice pudding. It is so good with cinnamon in it.

I just had a big test on day #4- a work potluck that I helped organize. It was a healthy potluck for our healthy living focus week, but it was still tough. I love things like hummus and tomato soup and that's what was there. BUT, I was good. I brought my shaker of butterscotch pudding, a cup of fennel bulb, and I was good to go.
One thing that is hard is that people really don't get it and I don't like having to explain it and getting weird looks and people thinking it's drastic and not healthy. It's a LOT healthier than the way most of us eat every day. The social pressure to eat is real. I'll probably get more of it tonight when I go to game night at a friend's house. I wish people were more supportive and less judgemental or apt to try to pull me off the wagon. |

You can also sprinkle the soy nuts on a nice salad and no one will even know you're eating IP food :)

I like the sour cream and onion puffs on salad as well, like little croutons!!!

Thank you, ladies! I will see how bad the "pressure" gets at work and maybe swap around my meals accordingly. That's a good idea. Then I'll just have to deal with funny looks from my husband and not the whole staff of my office. :)
