Well, I had my first official weigh-in today and was down 8lbs. She didn`t measure me though...was kind of sad about that. She is a new coach though and I am her first client, so it could be that she forgot. She seemed in a bit of a hurry this evening, but in any case I am content with my 8lb loss and am looking forward to more awesome results next week. I bought some of the WF Peanut Butter and HoneyDijon dressing. Does anybody have a WF product they really love or really hate?
I picked up some enzymes and omega 3s from the drugstore tonight and am hoping that maybe will jolt something. I didn`t get all my veggies in at lunch today which was stressful, and just an overall rough day at work put some extra stress on me. Looking forward to trying the pancakes for snack tonight!
Here`s to a great finish to another OP day.

Then again, I've had it in my head that I couldn't lose much weight before surgery because I wanted to make sure that the girls stayed big enough, so maybe it's a mental thing too. *shrug*
It may only have been 0.6 this week, but dang it, I got into those 8s!

Plus everyone's words and the energy with cleaning out drawers and cupboards is very fitting. I'm getting rid of excess fat and while I'm at it excess stuff in my house. There soon won't be any "junk in my trunk" or in my house. Haha. I'm off for the afternoon running errands then Drs so have a good night all.
Hi AmyonIP
How often do you take the Digestive enzymes and how many at a time-- I got some today and it says 1-2 per meal (is this every meal) just wondering how you do it vs. what the bottle says

Thanks for the help!!!!
At first I took 2 before my solid meals. I believe it helps "liquify" your food and makes it easier to digest. I've been adding Vitamin C also and boy are things flowing good now, so I backed off to 1 before my lunch and dinner. Hope that helps.
[QUOTE=kjw83;3692122]I was told that I could substitute 2 eggs for a packet, or tuna, like the kind you buy in the pouches. It probably doesn`t matter what kind of tuna as long as it`s packed in water not oil and low in fat. Those 2 things are lower in carbs than alot of the packets anyways. This was only for in a pinch, as I didn`t figure my packets right and would have had to eat 3 restricteds one day and 2 the next before I got to my WI and got more packets! Good luck/QUOTE]
Well I made it to Walmart, but I forgot my IP ingredient list and I didn't want to buy the wrong thing, so I didn't purchase anything. Hopefully I can get out tomorrow and make the health food store with the list. I had a salad for supper with some chicken and shrimp. I am also afraid I am eating too much oilive and grape oil as I use it for salad dressing with cider vinegar + for cooking the meat.
Thanks, I have been ducking out lately, and starting to wonder off program. I agree the support is huge here. I need to keep this diet front and center in my life, otherwise I find myself wondering back to my old habits.
I noticed you use the same little determined chick on your ticker that I use. I have a suggestion for you. Get your eyes off the ducks in your life and get focused on your determined little chick. Your determination is there, use it. You see, I had no trouble staying focused and determined while I working toward my goal. As I move into phase 3 soon, I think I will do o.k., but I wonder how I will do in phase 4. I feel I will need more help and support in phase 4 than ever before. Keep this diet front and center and you will obtain your goal. Judy
[QUOTE=Spiffsgal;3692403]Best of luck to everyone today. I am going to stay focused and OP and try and meet my goal in the next 2 weeks. I am looking forward to phase 3 and all its glory! Keep up the good work![/QUOTE
