Please help me. Does anybody know of anyone that gained all the weight back after this diet?
I'm sorry, Lilly, I just realized that I didn't address another of your concerns, and an important one. I've pretty much stuck with IP exclusively but, because my packets get mailed to me, and because mail to and within Hawai'i creeps, early on I found I was coming up short. So I ordered some isolate whey protein (http://www.vitacost.com/Syntrax-Nect...rotein-Isolate). I chose it because I'm mildly allergic to soy AND because it has all the essential amino acids, more protein per portion than IP, and I liked the name: Twisted Cherry. It's really delicious but a bit watery compared to IP. And when I looked it up I found it's 40% off right now and shipping on the mainland should be cheap. You can get 2 pounds for $26.65!!Originally Posted by Lilly0618
Hi, My name is Lilliana. I have been on the IP diet for a week and a half and have lost about 7 pounds. I am getting desperate because I can't spend more than 80 dollars a week plus the groceries, so I can't be buying a variety of IP foods, so I stuck to what I know I like. Please help me. Does anybody know of anyone that gained all the weight back after this diet?
If you substitute this for one packet, save the packets, then you will end up with a week/couple of weeks of IP at the end. Since you don't have a lot to lose, and because it is imperative that you stay strictly on program, you should come out much better off.
The only caution is -- please don't stint on the IP supplements. And consider adding a vitamin B complex and a slow-release vitamin C. Hope this helps.
