Good Morning, everyone! Hope everyone has a great day on IP! If you do what you must to succeed on this plan, you will succeed. It takes conviction and believing that it will work to stay committed!

Good morning,

5 lbs lost . only 1/2 inch in abdomen though. So 12 lbs in 2 weeks! I need to stop stepping on the scale at home and trust that this will work.

Two weeks and I am getting bored with salads, I need to find some seasonings that will flavor things up. Any suggestions?

Have a great day,
Linda

If you look in the recipe thrreads, you will find LOTS of recipies to try. I got a little tired of salads, but now I look forward to them. Your tastes will change.

I may have missed it, so I'll apologize now if it's already been answered. What was the decision from IP about the Southwest Cheese things?

Great job!!!

I don't really eat "salads" I just take a heart of romaine and chow down - not very fancy here.

Good Morning all my friends ! 45 lbs lost and at least 20 more to go. I got my blood test results back yesterday and everything else was perfect except my cholesterol. It was 253 (suppose to be under 200) and bad one was 160 (130). It has been almost same since 2000 and I really don't want to take medication. I'm still waiting what happens when I get rid of last lbs. Happy to be on this protocol, this really is wonderful and happy to be part of this wonderful group Have a blessed day everyone !

Good morning...I have my first meeting tomorrow and hopefully will be starting Thursday. I can't tell you how excited I am and oh - how I hope this works.

I've struggled with hypothyroidism for almost 25 yrs - and ready to finally be healthy!

Looking forward to joining in on the daily chats - if that's ok. I'm really wanting my little ticker at the bottom - :-)

Good morning all! WI #2 yesterday. Lost another 3 pounds to total 9 pounds in 2 weeks. Not to shabby! Hoping to lose a little more every week from here on out as that was the dreaded low loss second week, but I'll take 3 pounds a week anytime! I don't remember WW every being that successful! Not to mention I am not counting, starving or craving! Gotta love IP!

Good morning everyone!!!
I hope you all have a wonderful Tuesday

I weighed in yesterday and lost 7 pounds!! WOUHOU! I feel less bloaded it's great! It feels awesome to be back on it!

Last night when I went to get the mail, I received a ridiculous amount of coupons from junk food restaurant. I would have usually looked at them and said something along the lines of: MMMM Okay let’s got to McDonald’s!!!

But yesterday I took them, went inside the house, looked at my roommate and just threw them away. It was so tempting to just go but I kept repeating to myself: I am worth much more than this crappy food! And it actually worked…well of course I kept thinking about it for a while, but I drank some water and the thoughts just disappeared. Hopefuly I will be able to stay strong and overcome many temptations..because I know that that is my weakness..:/

But I am staying optimistic and I am aiming for 5-6 pounds for next week!!! GO GO GO!
