This is probably a stupid question, but.... I find myself wondering, so here goes -
When a package of frozen food lists the nutritional details for a certain per serving gm weight on the label, are they quoting for the frozen or thawed weight?
Probably thawed. I think in cases like that, the nutritionals refer to the way the food is eaten unless otherwise specified.
I stayed up tonight even thought I am dead tired to start today's thread. ONE year ago today I changed my life when I started Ideal Protein and found this site since then I have met online outstanding ladies and gentlemen on this forum that are all going through the same thing that I have gone through. Trust me when I say IT CAN BE DONE! I would like to say thank each and every one of you for letting me become part of your lives. It has helped me more than you will ever know to stay focused while on my journey. All of the support and encouragement that we give each other here is something that some of us don't get at home and it means the world and keeps us on track.
Everyone of you will have struggles but NEVER EVER GIVE UP......stay strong, focused, dedicated and committed to YOURSELVES.......YOU ARE WORTH IT......never let anyone tell you different. Hold your head up high and take pride in what you are doing for yourselves.....
154lbs of Pride is where I stand and I am NOT stopping, I am going to the end....when I am done I will stand proudly and say that I have loss 188lbs and I will NEVER GO BACK TO THAT.....Thank you IP for helping me learn how to live again!!!!!!
had my weighin yesterday,,only 1.6 pounds kinda of bummed but not giving up 18 pounds in 17 days is awesome and i know it..gonna try the spinach in the shake.need to get my vegies in not getting my 4 cupes aday.
Congrats WUV, you have had an amazing journey......all the best to the end
I have had a pretty good day today, although a disappointment for breakfast. I mistakenly bought the chocolate pudding mix instead of the chocolate drink mix....I opened two packs one for my sake with spinach and one to test chocolate pancakes. NOT the same'..........I soooooo love the chocolate drink....they were out of it last week, so I was looking forward to it this morning . I called my clinic and told them my dilemma and said to bring it back and they would switch it. Wew!!! Disaster adverted! The coaches there are really great, give me samples every week to try....and really motivating. The pancake turned out ok with the chocolate pudding, but would like to try the "real" one lol
Went to the States shopping again today and couldn't find the miracle noodles but found the shirataki. I am going to see if I can find the miracle noodles on line and order them. Can't remember what people do with them tho, so I will have to search that.
Now to read the rest of the post.....have a good evening everyone!
Popping in to wish everyone a great weekend! I'm going to have crawfish tomorrow, so I plan on making the cauliflower dressing that Wuv posted about Easter week.
I have a new favorite IP drink. Today I mixed the powders of the vanilla shake and the orange drink together. It tasted just like a creamsicle! I divided the powder mixture in half before mixing one shake. That way I can make it again another day.
You can also try the MIO water flavoring Orange tangerine instead of using 2 packets. When I ate my crawfish, my mom measured out 2lbs for me in a bucket. Have them boil, mushrooms and onions as well and some asparagus so you can get some veggies in there too ...enjoy!
thanks everyone, I went shopping at the avenue for some new pants and I fit in a size 20!!...a year ago I couldn't fit in ANY of there clothes 30-32 was too small!.Found a new pair of pants for $9.96...woohoooooooo
Happy anniversary, Wuv Your story is so inspirational!!
Found a great surprise today- went to a healthy grocery and found almost all the WF products in the store- no more shipping charges
I put a little less than a tablespoon of WF marshmallow dip in my choc shake today. YUM. Just when you thing the choc shake couldnt be better Also thinking about trying a dab of WF peanut butter in my chicken stir fry for a Thai kind of flare...
OK, so I'm am super giggly, and this is not IP related...but...I just found out I can get insurance for only like $125 for a month (have a month's gap between employers) instead of having to pay $750 for COBRA! I'm literally so hyper right now I could run a mile! (or at least the first 200 feet of it...)

Lisa,
I LOVE your new photos!! You look like an entirely different person
I had the new IP Chicken a la King for lunch today...delish! It contains bits of chicken, tiny pieces of pasta, several kernals of corn, and other bits of things. Very thick, too. It was nice to have something with texture that I didn't have to add.
Hi Andie, is this a restricted item? Sounds yummy.
