Share Your Daily Food Journal!
So I am just TODAY getting started back on IP... I lost 20 pounds on it last fall, then some family crises knocked me off track... I was just now able to find the motivation again and am super excited!! Anyway, I find that the food journals help me a lot since they hold me accountable.. but I think they would help me even MORE if I made my food diary public. So, starting today, at the end of the day I will share everything I ate/drank - whether I stayed OP or not. Hoping others will want to join this thread too and we can share our food diaries with each other!
Today I believe I stayed OP!
Drank way more than the required water
Breakfast: Cappuccino shake (by itself) and later a cup of coffee
Lunch: Strawberry Yogurt shake, 2 cups spinach with oil/vinegar
Dinner: 2 eggs; 2 cups of baked turnips tossed in oil sprinkled with salt
Evening: Blueberry shake, as we speak
If I goofed anywhere please let me know! But I think I stayed OP today, and feel good so far. Ready for tomorrow.

I feel like I ate a ton compared to you! For breakfast, I had the chocolate drink in the microwave...hot chocolate! I also had coffee. Lunch I had a good salad with oil and vinegar, some green peppers, celery, and cucumbers with an IP soy patty. Supper was chicken breast, salad, broccoli, cucumbers and green peppers. Snack is dill pickle zippers. BTW...are the restricted items a no-no in phase 1? My mom swears her coach told her she couldn't have them until phase 2!

your menu today sounds yummier than mine, I have just learned that I'm lazy!!!! So I think instead of chopping a bunch of veggies I will eat spinach for most of my veggies. Today the only thing I chopped was spinach. We'll see how long til I get bored of spinach tho The restricted items are only not allowed during your first two weeks. After that - game on! I've noticed some coaches tell people stuff that is actually stricter than the IP Protocol - maybe their personal opinions or experience leads them to do that, but I tend to stick to the protocol. Each coach seems to have their own little twist to the diet but sticking to the protocol works!

Ugh...I already feel frustrated with all the different opinions! My coach said my 1 restricted item per day is absolutely fine. I'm doing the "online" version, so I'm afraid of mixing something up!

I hear ya, it can be really confusing at first... when I first started I had copies of the protocol everywhere and was constantly double checking it - I had one at my desk, one in my purse, one in my car, one on the fridge... and that worked really well for me! After just a few weeks I had no more confusion and could confidently plan out my days without constantly checking my paperwork. Stick with it, don't worry about looking stuff up frequently - you'll be a pro in no time!
