Good Morning IPers,
With my medical issues and being on the mend I am finding it hard to get back on track. My brain won't kick in gear, I was previously one of the no cheat's losing 3 to 4 a week but now I feel a bit lost . I have the alternates and my coach sent me some nice options but my brain is still in the whatever mode. I need to prepare my food, something i'm just so tired to do, healing and my first week back to work is taking all the energy I have. I must smack myself and push to get back on track before it's to late. The water weight which I use to retain quite a bit, is already creeping back after 8 days, and the scale is reflecting it.

Smacking myself never worked.
Formulating a plan and sticking to it did.
Be gentle with yourself & don't overplan while you recover. Add small tasks so you don't overwhelm yourself. Prepping veggies is a lot of work. Grab some frozen ones and maybe only 1-2 fresh. You're still recovering.
Throw some meat in the crockpot.
Water weight will go away with the carbs after a couple days. Send them packing.

Chocolate Soup
Good Morning everyone 
This AM I wanted to make chocolate pancakes, well I added too much water and I had hot bubbly chocolate soup in my pan. I added a couple of drops of coconut extract and had hot chocolate soup!!!! It filled me up no questions on that!
Happy Tuesday everyone

Good morning everyone sounds like we are having a Monday all over again. Today is my second day back at work from vacation, everyone was making comments like WOW Tiffany you look like you lost more weight on vacation (I did 2.5 lbs) one of my assistance called me skinny all day. I don't know if those words have ever been attached to my name before, it made me feel great. I officially weigh in at doc office Thursday. Hope everyone has a great Tuesday.

My bosses' boss called me "skinny" last Friday (she's been dieting, too).
Interestingly, I'm still in the overweight BMI.
Skinny will come in January when I return to P1 after this "break the stall" break. Right now I'm definitely skinnier than I was but far from skinny...it feels kinda weird to be called that. I've always been the fat girl.

A co worker keeps calling me the incredible shrinking woman. My BMI is still unhealthy as well. There's still several areas I'd like to see get smaller. They can't see the spare tire under the clothes lol. But I guess to them they see a dramatic change

Does Anyone know where in the Norfolk Virginia area I can find the best selection of Walden Farms products? We're visiting here for a few weeks and I want to spend my time site seeing with the kids not chasing around for products but still want to stay on plan. Looking for Rasp. Jelly and Chipolte ranch dressing. Thanks! (I've checked the website and been on the phone with WF this morning as well as called stores listed in the area as distributors. No luck so far but they also don't list the places that carry the most product at home). Hoping I don't have to try and get an order sent to a temporary location.

Good Morning IPers,

My brain won't kick in gear, I was previously one of the no cheat's losing 3 to 4 a week but now I feel a bit lost . I have the alternates and my coach sent me some nice options but my brain is still in the whatever mode.

SORRY THIS WAS A QUOTE, HIT A WRONG BUTTON..
had the same problem, getting back on track is so hard...take baby steps, hour by hour........then kaboom your first 24 hrs is done.....that is what i did....that took me many re tries. I had to say, listen girl, I want to be skinner at christmas time and feel better, that will give me the willpower to ignore all the carb and sugar monsters durrig that perioud. Once we start to feel and see the results its give me anyway more strength to go farther....way better then anyones words...I dont want to be the fat girl with the pretty face........
You can do it, one bottle of water at a time....

Good morning IPers! Last night was rough-- I really wanted to snack. Being home alone seems to do that to me. Fortunately I didn't eat all of my blueberry cran granita jello (it was REALLY weak the way I made it so kinda bland). I ate some of that, which was about 1/4 packet, which I figure is better than eating.
I have a belt on today to keep my pants in place, pants that were snug a few weeks ago. My legs don't feel skinnier at all, but I guess if my pants are loose they must be? Here's hoping!

yespositively: The blue-cran granata and raspberry jelly can be used every day as an additional packet or every other day if it is one of your 3.
They don't contain all essential amino acids of a protein so don't feel guilty!
