Hello Jelliehel! I didn't. Dumb question - do you freeze the box or do you pour it out in molds? I used molds with IP RTD and didn't care for it because it was like ice (probably due to water content) so it lost its creaminess this way.
I like ProtiThin drink boxes, btw. Someone here said they were identical to IP's, which I really like, so I got them and would say that was true in regards to taste but there is a difference in macros.
Hi! I freeze it in the box and it is creamy. I take it out about an hour before eating so it can thaw a bit. It really feels like I am eating ice cream. I am more of a salty snack person but this is a nice change.

good morning to you! when I said the boards are dead, its SO TRUE compared to when I started IP in 2010-2011! there was so much activity each day all day, it was hard to keep up with all the posts. But it was great to have the reading to do, and it was all 'current'
That is when I originally did IP and it was a great support system, I often wonder how WUV is doing, she lost so much weight and was so inspiring. I need to start again, but I am being the typical, First of the year starter. lol
Jelliehel - thank you for this tip. I did it today and really enjoyed it. And, the bonus was it made my sore throat feel better! I even got a brain freeze from it, lol.

HEY BELLAMACK!!!!! good to see a familiar name yes I was just trying to search her up the other day. I don't think she is on the boards. Hope you are doing well
Bellamack (Karen?) WUV is my FB friend. Actually, I think you are too (;
She is doing great. She had regained a bit of weight but had to re-lose it when she was going for a tummy tuck. She lost with the tuck and just recently had a hip replacement which went well. She moved further south in her state and got a good job with a band which meant she had medical coverage and could have the hip surgery, she was in a lot of pain with that. She just got a different position with the bank and moved into a new apartment closer to her new workplace. I will PM you on FB.

Another familiar face! And that is great to hear about WUV!
So I am just finished my veggie delight salad from subway, and now working on my protein shake....... a week ago my stomach did NOT feel full THAT FAST. It seems like I get full faster now, and when I feel full, its funny how the first thought in your head is THERE IS NO WAY THE SCALE will go down NOW. Cause I feel like I pigged out. I think with all the years of avoiding food to lose weight, we get /got programmed to link hunger - weight loss. Which we know is wrong now of course. But I still catch myself in the old way of thinking.....
good morning all ! you know what I found 'funny'? during the past week, I ensured I stayed at 18-20 carb as per the food tracker I use on Atkins site. Yesterday, the M&M French onion soup for supper ( I splurged...) was several carbs OVER and put me at a count of 29 for end of day... I WENT DOWN 1.1 lbs! while during the week, the losses were smallllllll while trying to maintain the 18-20. Why?

I don't think it is related. You were due for a "swoosh". Way to go!
Yes I remember that, however the ones we still have in Canada are the 'old' recipe. I am IP / Atkins... both targeting low carb and more fat
Hi LFG2010, I'm afraid the Quest bars here in Canada are not the old recipe anymore... you will notice they are much higher in fat, making them not IP compliant, except for Lemon Pie (if I remember correctly) which is still lower in fat grams. For any of us who have 'graduated' from IP and are now in maintenance mode, Quest will still work OK especially if you are doing LCHF. The trick with Quest is just to make sure they don't trigger cravings for sweets, but it may depend on what the individual bar is sweetened with as there are different combinations for each flavour bar.
! Lol about the brain freeze. Glad it made you feel better.
