Ideal Protein Diet - Monthly Chat, October 2009
 

Good Morning,

This is what I meant by opening a monthly thread. If there are Phases to this diet, please post them in a new thread titled "Ideal Protein Diet Phase I, II, III or what ever" and I will make it a sticky or.. a thread like FAQ - Ideal Protein Diet.

What ever you ladies like to make this work for you, let me know.

My IP friends, have you found this new thread yet???

Someone might want to re-open the old thread and post this linking thread there. Because not everyone is computer savvy and it would have just been easier and will be for all to find it. I would hate to lose someone because the thread was closed.

Not sure how I will feel about having so many different places to look amongst all the other stuff NON-IP related.

How can I find the old thread? I wanted to get the hints off of it.

Found it. Nevermind as Emily Latella would say. . .

From Original Thread From Bundukaa -- HI torchlaker! Thanks for the reply. I have read many of the old posts but i havent gottena list of the dos and donts. I was wondering if anyone was kind enough to share the vegetable lists and also they didnt tell me about the sea salt? do i take that everyday!!! I feel so lost!

Answer: I don't think we are suppose to ask for private email addresses but I would be happy to scan and email you all the paperwork I received today at my first meeting if you want to send me your email address. I got quite a bit of info and would be happy to send to you. And yes, you need sea salt 1/2 a teaspoon a day.

I will make it a STICKY for you :)

what is a "sticky"?

I found you guys!

When you log into "Other Reduced Carb Diets" look at the posts in red at the top of the screen that say Sticky. That means they are stuck and will not be lost in the sea of posts. You will see Sticky posts on almost every board you click on, whether it be Atkins, Weight Watchers, etc..

thanks, found it with the link you have - now it is in my favorites!

So glad everyone is maneuvering over to our new thread!

Just wanted to share my weigh-in results today. Yesterday was exactly a month that I have been on IP. So far I am down 16lbs and 11.25 inches. :carrot:

I must be honest here though, I have done a few things that I shouldn't have. I've had a couple of cheat meals and I usually use a salad dressing that's probably not "safe" but that's the way I make this diet work for ME. I am eating more protein and more veggies than I ever have in my life so I know that I'm much healthier than I was a month ago. The fact that I've been able to make a few tweaks here and there is what makes this diet "real world" feasible for me.

Everyone who is starting or struggling: YOU CAN DO THIS!! If I can do it, ANYONE can.

:hug:

To Gink:

Congratulations!! That is fab for just one month. Just think what it would have been like on the "old" way of losing weight. My golly you wouldn't see 16 # gone for at least 2 months and maybe 3.

I had my first meeting with my coach today and got my food. She wants me to wait until Saturday to start. She said to eat what I wanted to for a couple of days. . .

She also said no exercise for the first two weeks then I could do whatever I wanted.

HI! so just want to get this straight about the new thread thing....what does it mean by monthly threads... this one being october, does that mean a new thread come november, december and so on? and are we supposed to post on the sticky that categorizes the posts for the phase we re on? am i understanding this correctly?
