Glad to see everyone doing well! I'm finally in the 230s, ugh. Only lost 3lbs in the last 2 weeks and when I get frustrated/anxious, I seem to disappear from here.
I need to go back to the basics and do the plain version of the plan. Once I got "fancy" with recipes and changes, it seems like I slowed down on the scale. And if I drink too many other things (ICE, MIO, etc.) my plain water intake seems to suffer. I think it's all in my head.
Can't wait to read all of the updates! The numbers on the spreadsheet look amazing, people are doing awesome!
Someone sent me a link once to " A plan"
maybe I didn't understand it. Maybe I thought I would Have to pay lots of money for something out there.
Can someone plssss
explain it to me .I don't seem to be losing at all.
Wow, sounds like a lot of fuss and basic expense too, Loser13.
I buy my Quest bars at GNC and it is worth it to buy a gold membership - discounts are huge with it. Also try to buy the bars that they mark down because they are closer to their due date. Many times I end up paying $1-2 CDN per bar thanks to all these discounts. The only issue you might have with the closer-to date bars is that they can be a bit chewier than the 'fresher' bars. Good way to check this is by bending the bar a bit in the wrapper before you buy it, that way you know how soft it is. Also keep in mind that they are a bit higher in fat than P1/2 protocol suggests.
Ack! What happened to the spreadsheet? All data is gone. I could find the old data in the revision history, but I couldn't find a way to restore it. Can anyone fix it?

looks like someone deleted it all. SMH certainly hope it was not done with malice.
Wishing everyone a happy 4th of July holiday. I'm going out of town on vacation and won't be back until after the 4th, so I won't have an opportunity to weigh in during the last week of our challenge. I am sending everyone good vibes for a great victory over the scales this week and I will need some good vibes to survive my first vacation on plan.
I gained this week, hoping it was TOM and eating out because I cried all the way there and all the way home. (I peeked at home before I left.) Hello hormones, ugh.
My coach didn't seem too worried about it but she's not an overly excitable person either way. I want to hurry up and weigh in next week.
Well, I was a little shy of my June goal of 140 - I landed at 141.8! Ah well, July is another month!!!! See all y'all on the next page of the spreadsheet! Keep checking in!!!!
Had my fourth weigh in last night and I'm down 15.6 pounds (20 on my home scale) for the month of June. Very pleased, although I am really missing white wine with girlfriends.
BUT -- my hair has definitely started to fall out. There's a lot in the shower/hairbrush. Surprised it would start so soon, others have posted about it starting after three or four months--not weeks. Starting on biotin and already taking omegas and antioxys, but now my couch's outfit has stopped stocking the antioxy. Anyone know where else to get it?
Happy Fourth everyone!

Hi Ripip: you can get antioxidants at any healthfood/drugstore. No biggie. I never had hair fallout but some girls do. Make sure you treat your head gently, lol. Try shampooing less often (only a couple times a week) and try not to use harsh styling tools all the time such as blow dryers, curling or straightening irons, etc. If you have curlier hair, you are lucky as it hides any loss better than straight hair.
I've hopped back onto the challenge sheets after losing about 5. Hopefully I will finally dip below 140 this coming week, but I will admit I have had a lot of cherries and blueberries as they are in season (doing a reboot of sorts but not strictly as you may notice). I also eat a lot of cheese & pepperoni as I'm mainly keto low carb/high fat maintenance.
I entered my first WI on Sheet 2 (July), but it did not do the math? I mean, it was only a pound and I can figure it out, but not sure if there's something wrong with the worksheet? I'm terrible at technology!
