I am slowly making the switch from IP over to alternatives because of the cost. I have been using both for the past few weeks and I am down a total of 27 in just 9 weeks!! So I would say it is not affecting my weight loss!
The EAS Low Carb drinks are pretty good IMO, I have tried them all, but my favorites are Milk Chocolate Fudge and Strawberry. They really seem to fill me up! I also ordered a few products from Nashua Nutrition that have been decent so far!! I typically have two EAS Dinks a day and one BAR of some sort, either IP or from Nashua Nutrition. Somedays I have 3 EAS shakes. Still follow the rest of the IP protocol.
The Proti-Thin Chocolate Covered Soy balls seem to be the same as IP.
The Proti-Diet Maple Brown Sugar Oatmeal also is pretty good and with only 6carbs and 15protein, I believe it counts as a NON restricted??
I was looking for a replacement for the IP Choc Raspberry bar(my favorite) and I tried the Proti-Diet Raspberry Choc Square. Not quite the same but good!
If anyone knows of any alternatives for the IP Southwest Cheese puffs I would love to hear from you
