Have a cold - feel crumby. TOM - feel crumby. Snowing outside - feel crumby. Having a bit of a 'sorry for myself' day. These days kill my will power and the emotional eater comes out with a vengeance! UGHH!

Thanks for the coupon code. Wanted to get some extra stuff as a back up.

I can't believe how many are getting sick. I haven't been sick in years. I take a Claritin every day all year long and as soon as I feel funny like I might be getting sick I take an airborne. Works every time! I probably just jinx myself

That's great. I hope to have the same results when I weigh in tonight for my first week restarting. I already feel 100% better. Wish I went back sooner.

Thanks for the kind words. I know between TOM and the cold its just retention. Still hate to see that scale go up. Gonna put it in the closet when I get home

Hehe, hope it helps!

Oh, good one - I had forgot about those zucchini muffins - I think I'm making a couple of batches before we leave. Thanks!

Well, I have found a new meal. But I am not sure if I am allowed to have it hahahah It was to good. (I am in Phase 1)

For my lunch, I made the Potato Puree Flat Bread (Its delicious!!) and put on a leaf of lettuce, 0.5oz chicken and some mustard. What I am not so certain about is what I had with it....I had some celery....with PB2 on it you take 2tbsp of the powder mix 1tbsp of water to make a heaping 1tbsp of peanut butter. I put a little less then half on the celery. But I am not sure if I am allowed to use the PB2 in phase 1?? Anyone know?

Well....Nevermind! Found the answer. Its a NO until Phase 3! Shoot!! Glad I only used 1/2 TBSP!! But at least now I know.

Hey PurpleMomster, Are you coming to Minneapolis for an event or to shop at the MOA. I live in the area, welcome!

I'm on phase 1 and for thanksgiving dinner, I was wondering if I can eat 8oz of Boston Market roasted chicken but without the skin?

Hey! We're coming down for a Wild/Jets game in St. Paul And some, okay lots, of shopping too! It's a bus tour - never done one before - but they're taking us to MOA and Albertville so it should be good.

I make the trip down 2 or 3 times a year, my son loves MOA, lol!

Hey Purple, If you're coming to Minneapolis this weekend you are in for some nice weather. It's been very cold here but will be in the 50's for Sat. Which will make Albertville tolerable. Have fun at the MOA! Lots of food choices there that will fit in with IP.

Are u measuring inches every week? This is my second kick at the cat. I was on the plan about 1 1/2 yrs ago and lost 28 lbs in 9 weeks. And I lost 38 inches as well. I remember my coach saying that as long as you are either losing inches or lbs it is good.

I bet you lost some inches. Stay focused and next week you could be down 6lbs. I remember when I was on it last time I only lost 2 lbs the first week, and I remember the devastation I felt. I did everything right but the scale didn't show. The next week I was down 9lbs. It all works out in the end to approx 3lbs a week.

Keep up the good work

This is my first day on the forum and Day 14 on IP. So far so good. Down 19.5lb. Here's to a good rest of the week. Good luck everyone.
