Fantastic losses you two! Well done!:dancer:


I hate the weekends now because everyone around me is eating whatever they want! I'm frustrated this morning because I woke up very hungry. :mad:

Pitakitten - Hang in there...I too have not lost anything and am getting frustrated.....the cookies were calling my name from the pantry.....they can be so persistent sometime!

Lindora is having a 20% off sale on beverages and puddings now through Sunday.

I went to weigh in this morning. I only lost 1 lb. since last week. I seem to be in another rut. I bought the pina colada and the strawberry pudding for this week. Thought I'd try something new. It is getting very difficult for me to be able to afford to stay on i.p. bcs of my husband walking out. He is not giving me any financial support. I think that the stress is contributing to my slowwwww loss. Please keep my kids and I in your prayers. thanks

They do call you don't they? hehehe, that's cheese for me!

Sweet! Thanks for the heads up

Hey I lost .8 this week...so there you go. Don't worry, it will happen.

You are in my thoughts always and I promise you it will work out.

Look into alternatives if the IP products are out of your budget. Lindora has good stuff too and it is cheaper.

Use the loser *** as motivation to lose weight. Just imagine how GREAT it will feel when you are all hot and sexy and he is just an old middle aged man. 1 lb closer to satisfaction baby, 1 lb closer to feeling better about yourself, 1 lb closer to a sexy new you!

Hang in there every pound counts!

I second that motion. Actually, I nominate frumpy as an official "Honorary IP Citizen" until she is back on the plan. :):hug:

1lb is still a loss mama so hold your head up high:) I left my husband 3 1/2 years ago and he hasn't thrown a penny this way, but I kept pushing forward for me and my kids...you can do this and so much more....women are phenonmenal with the amount of inner strenghth we have, don't discount yourself!!

got all of my IP stuff yesterday and went out and bought my veggies now debating when to start since we are rolling up on Mother's Day weekend, going out to lunch with my mom, grandmother and aunt tomorrow, so maybe a Sunday or Monday start...HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY in advance to all of the beautiful moms in case I don't make it on here this weekend:)

I second that motion. Actually, I nominate frumpy as an official "Honorary IP Citizen" until she is back on the plan.

YIPPEE! YAHOO! HIP-HIP-HOORAY for Frumpy, our "Honorary IP Citizen!" We all want you back to 100% perfect health!!!

Could not agree more!! :cp::flow2::wizard::rain::df::goodluck:

NOTE: do NOT have red wine if you are going to cheat. Your day after will become the worst day EVER! not that I did it but just sayin....

Some people are very sensitive to sugar alcohols, sweetners and acesulphame K. Keep a watch on what you eat and how you react. You can read the product info online. I know several products are quite a bit higher in the ace K (potassium). It sometimes causes intestinal distress, belching, bloating. Also, keep in mind what minerals/supplements you took. SOMETIMES, an excess of magnesium can cause intestinal distress. Usually you would experience diarrhea but for some it can be just the gas first.


Excellent work, Journey and Penguin! You bith should be proud of those numbers!

Here, Here!! Definately want to keep Frumpy around!

I like to post this note here because then I will stick to it:
I El will NOT cheat this week. I will not whine. I will work out every day. I will unwrap the yoga DVD I purchased and use it. I WILL lose weight this week, regardless of how my weigh in goes tonight. You all will ignore me fully if I write another post about cheating again!

Thank you for this. I love the workout and i feel great. Loosing the inches. But not the lbs. Scared to eat more because i am not loosing now, so felt if i eat more i would gain. I guess i will try to drop to maybe 4days a week and add some weights inbetween.
