Default IP in 6 more days!!

I am so excited, I have my first consultation at the IP clinic on the 5th. I can't wait to shed this 40 lbs that crept up on me in what seems like overnight.
I have been really enjoying reading the success stories posted on this site!!They are the motivation I need to starting a new lifestyle. I am looking forward to posting my success on here, too!!![

Congratulations on choosing a diet that really does work! Also, this really does teach you how to eat better and make different choices. It really does work if you stay true to it! I can't wait to see your success story!

Default Yay! Me, too (sort of)

Hi Hollomark!

I'm happy for you

I am re-starting on January 4th. I originally started early December and put things on hold till January. I am very lucky to have a great local cennter and a very inspirational coach who I really relate to. Perhaps my little lapse was a positive thing because although I have not gone crazy (tried sticking to protein and salads but didn't want to stress about family gatherings), I have felt lousy physically as compared to when I was following protocol. I know it's hard to believe, but once you get rolling, you won't be hungry, at least that was how I felt.

My goal is also 40 pounds, and if you're at all interested, we can exchange emails because I would love to have an IP pal to share with (ups and downs...esp. downs on the scale, lol). This board is also the best. Everyone is so positive and imformative.

Let me know..........

Good for you! I lost 60 lbs with IP in just under 4 months and best of all it helped me think about what I am eating, why I eat, and what I should eat! Maintaining hasn't been a problem because of the changes I have made and getting back to the gym. I just wish I had found this forum back when I started. So much helpful information and support!!
Enjoy your progress

Sad news: Access to the private message service takes the same amount of time and # of posts as it takes to get access to signatures and tickers -- 20 days & 20 posts.

Info on private messaging
