i have been doing edamame for 4 weeks and have lost well. i eat it 3-4 times a week, but usually it's about a half cup at a time bc its so filling, not sure if that's made the difference..

a cup of COOKED soybeans has 19 carbs, 7 of those being fiber(insoluble in the body) so a cup actaully has 12 g of net carbohydrates. the percentages are close to 33/33/33 on carbs, fats and protein which makes it almost a perfect food. asparagus, mushrooms and okra contain almost 70% carbs..idk.

CG those wii miis are BRUTAL aren't they?!

cheryl just have your after dinner pack then
instead

HOLY BANANAS! webster's dictionary states: soya: n, the soybean. it's on the list of ok foods, obviously some coaches aren't up on their vocabulary. my coach ok'd it and it's on the list of approved vegetables so i'm going with it. soya is the term possibly used in europe or canada?

now the other definition for soya: is a Japanese museum ship that previously served as an icebreaker and patrol boat

...but i doubt they would allow us to eat 4 whole cups of boat a day, too many carbs

and tofu is not a vegetable it's the curds of soy milk, which of course is made of soy and what most of the IP foods contain as well.

on another topic, DK, could you recommend some good low impact workouts for the dreaded back fat around the bra hooks? weight is falling off everywhere else but there!

hatesusernames
okra is so yummy, i brown cut frozen okra in a pan with a little olive oil and salt and pepper, i prefer it a little brown-gives it a crispness that i prefer to the gooey texture if it's just boiled or nuked.

Rocky Monarch - I was wondering if my aunt was your coach but I guess not. Her name is Jan Kelley and she operates an IP Clinic in Beaverton as well as 3 curves locations in the Beaverton area. I already met someone on here who had her as a coach and worked for her at the clinic. Crazy!

Good evening all, Thanks for the encouragement! This is the end of day 3 for me and it was MUCH better than day 2! I am sure by the weekend I'll be over the hump and into thr grove. After doing some more reading, I discovered i have been taking my vitamins incorrectly. I have been taking them all in the morning at breakfast. I just thought I would get them all out of the way.
With the adviced from this bord, I feel much more informed about the plan.

Wishing everyone a wonderful day!

I'm a little shy about photos (though I shouldn't be anymore, I guess) but I'll see what I can do...

Hey, Novak, How's Phase 3 going? Looks like you're continuing to lose. That's comforting to know.

Wow! I had no clue you could get Ketone Strips. I will have to look for those. Thank you for sharing that

Here's what I found on Edamame!
Here's what you'll find in a half-cup serving of shelled edamame (or 1 1/8 cup edamame in the pods):

* 120 calories
* 9 grams fiber
* 2.5 grams fat
* 1.5 grams polyunsaturated fat (0.3 grams plant omega-3 fatty acids)
* 0.5 gram monounsaturated fat
* 11 grams protein
* 13 grams carbohydrate
* 15 mg sodium
* 10% of the Daily Value for vitamin C
* 10% Daily Value for iron
* 8% Daily Value for vitamin A
* 4% Daily Value for calcium

Seems like a lot of carbs, but when I was In Curves program we would subtract the # of fibre from the carbs so it would be only 4 carbs then!! Anyone heard of doing that??

Soybean...one little word eh. I live in Canada and to be honest, I have fields of it all around me! All soy products start with the bean. Processing of the bean to tofu, milk, curds, oil etc?? Better than the bean itself?? I can always try tofu I guess. I do not eat processed meat. All of my meat comes from the farmers! Yeah! So any lunch meat for me is a no no.... Now I am not saying stay away from processed foods, kind of hard to do right. But you know I even read the labels of decaf items. How are things decaf? Look at your labels you will be surprised.

I will ask my coach. I am sure she will also question it if she doesnt know the answer. I love it...the fiber in it is awesome especially for those who get a little constipated.

This forum is absolutely awesome! I love it. Learning a lot each day.

It is the long weekend here....Victoria Day. Next weekend is Memorial Day in the States which I also celebrate, as I am a US citizen living in Canada.

Toodles for now,

Using Net Carbs I believe is also what Diabetics do....Yes I have heard of that. The Fibre 35 plan talks about Net Carbs. Interesting read.

You have the absolute right attitude for having a slip. It happened, but today is a new day and the sun always shines! You Can Do This!!

PS....also woke up with a headache this morning, could it be from the extra carbs in the restricted items that caused it??? If so one more reason to NOT cheat even though it is an IP food. We learn something new every day don't we!!!!

Frannie57: Thank you for your encouraging words...I think maybe I am going to have to start going for walks when those little hunger attacks happen. Also I didn't have a salad at lunch time, just my 2 cups of veggies, so will have to remember that also. Yes today is a new day and I am still 24lbs lighter than I was 5 weeks ago soooo here's to IP!!

Sadly there is no way to target weight loss... the weight has to come off everywhere... you can tone it up a bit and focus on those muscles.

Do you go to a gym?

Rowing exercises are great for working your upper back and these moves counteract everyday slouching. When doing rows, most folks think of squeezing their shoulder blades together. Instead of thinking solely of the movement coming from your back, initiate the movement from opening your collar bone, aka your clavicle. This detail helps open the chest a bit more, allowing the upper back muscles to engage more deeply.

Here is a video to do bent over rows... be sure to keep your back flat at all times!!!

Also One arm bent over row

The other one to do is the Lat Pulldown excercise
