Good Morning Lisa & Fellow IP'ers. 'Have a lovely day OP!' We owe it to ourselves to stay focused, we can do this & enjoy it at the same time! :sunny:

Felling very discouraged even though I know I shouldn't be. Missed a couple BC pills last week which means (for me) TOM came EARLY - went to do my weigh in and of course its higher than normal because of all the water retention and whatever else - oh and now TOM wont go away .. Lesson learned TOM .. GODBYEEE!! Goodness :)

Good Morning!
A NSV for me; I am no longer wearing "granny-panties"! :cheer2: I can't wait for my weigh-in tomorrow! I peeked at the scale this morning and it likes me this week! :) My husband is wanting to do IP for a coulpe weeks to get rid of his "beer-gut", however he is in the military and does heavy exercise daily. I'm not sure how to go about this. I know that with light exercise, an extra packet is required, but what about high cardio exercise (running up and down ski hills) and heavy weight lifting? |

Just heard a great quote about diets that have "cheat" days:
"Rewarding someone who's overweight with food is a kin to an alcoholic celebrating a month of sobriety with a beer." |
Lol!

I have come a long way in my weight loss journey. I have have many successes on IP -it works! What I am struggling with now is the fact that I am burned out and tired. I am 10 lbs from the goal my dr and I set, but I am seriously considering switching to phase 3 on the first of October even if I haven't hit it yet. Any feedback or suggestions?
|
Well, I'm excited to say, my little "shake up" worked! I am down 4.5 lbs today!!! That is huge for me!! After nothing last week and small losses the two weeks prior this feels SO good!
Keep drinking that water guys and gals. I now completely believe in it. I have liked having dinner for lunch, so I plan to continue that for a while. :hat: carressme -- Don't give that mean ole' TOM any power. Just keep doing what you're doing and, once it is gone, you will see a great loss. Stay strong!! Have a great day, losers!! :dance: |

Although my official weigh in isn't until Friday, I weighed myself this morning and I hit 30lbs. So excited....I'm almost there! 7 to go!
|
Granny panties, LOL.
Caressme, take care it will get better, TOM is only temporary! Congrats to all on great weigh-ins! I posted my 50lbs down pictures in the before and after thread. Maybe I will finally do an avatar now! |
