I have only been on IP for 3 weeks, I feel so energized even with my new baby. He wakes me upo at 7 am everyday and I am up and at it. I also use to experience really really bad menstral cramps, which I havent since I started. Its funny what some diet changed will do for you. I always thought I was eating healthy before too, people would even compliment me on how healthy I ate. Yet I worked out all the time and lost maybe 1lb a week... IP is a savior.. So far! I have lsot about 10lbs since I started, but the main thing is I feel really amazing.. and all your stories are inspiring too.. so thanks for that!! I am opptimistic that by Christmas I will be really close to were I need to be.. Yay for us!
