Liz - I just got out my blender and made some coffee (chilling right now). I am excited to try your spinach shake. Also, like your new pic! I started at 212 and hope I look as good as you on week 14! Robin

Thanks Robin! Honestly, these past 3 months have just FLOWN by - I can't believe WI#14 is on Friday. I look forward to catching up with you over the next few weeks. IP is an amazing protocol and you will find a lot of ideas here to help make it pretty easy and delicious. I've never eaten better!
I am not a black coffee drinker and found the spinach smoothie to be the best way to get my caffeine in and its a tasty breakfast! I actually broke my blender this morning - it was getting old though (10+ years), but I'd really been putting it through the ringer these past few weeks! You can also use water or herbal tea. I personally love the chocolate drink best, but cappucino and vanilla are delicious too (especially w/the coffee!). I wasn't a big fan of the butterscotch or dark chocolate though, but that is personal preference.
ok question for ya im still trying to figuire out are you having 4 packets because you exercise? im only allowed 3
Yes - I have the 4th packet on my Bodypump days, it's a 60-minute weightlifting circuit class I do 2x/week (Sat & Tue). I also walk with my son to the playground ~2-2.5mi, 3-5x/week since I started IP (before this week when I could go outside without melting!), but I never added a packet with that (I take a very slow, leisure pace). My coach said I could have a 4th packet my first week if I felt I needed it, but I pretty much just powered through it. If you do end up taking up exercise, and make sure your coach is informed, you will need to add the 4th packet. This is such a low-calorie diet and your body needs the extra energy to avoid going into starvation mode which will slow your weight loss.
Breakfast:
Capp drink mixed with 1 cup spinach and 8 oz coffee (YUM!)
Lunch:
IP Chicken Noodle (Someone please help me on this - I keep messing it up)
Salad with veggies and 2 Tbls WF Rasp Ving
Snack:
Caramel Nut Bar
Dinner:
IP Approved Pizza
2 eggs + 1 egg white scrambled to and cooked in skillet until almost tough
Saute green peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes
Spread 1-2TBL WF tomato basil sauce on egg crust, add sauteed veggies and a little raw onion with about 10 turkey pepperonis then 1 serving of Mozzarella Veggie cheese on top, then place in 350 oven til cheese is melted.
Satisfies the pizza craving! (When I have an IP Plain Omelet available and still have a remaining packet in the day I use that as my crust, but this way it's not as filling and I can eat the whole thing.)

I am loving this group! I spend too much time on these boards during work but I'm getting a lot of ideas! I wish I knew about IP 3 months ago. I go on vacation in a week 1/2 and very nervous! I have been watching your meals each day and it's been very helpful!
