Day 1
 
Today is day 1 for me and I have a terrible headache right now. This is what I've had to eat today:
Breakfast: 1 IP Oatmeal
Lunch: Salad, 2 cups of cuccumber, 1 IP vanilla pudding
Supper: Salad, Chicken
Snack: 1 IP hot chocolate
I know the first few days are the worst so I think it's going to be early to bed tonight.

did you get your last 2 cups of vegetables on your salad?

Have you had all of your sea salt for today?

How much water did you get in?

The last 2 will cause a head ache.

Try this, take 1/3 tsp of sea salt, place it on a spoon and eat it and follow with a large glass of water or, try taking it mixed in a glass of water as a drink. It may help.

Sometimes the headache is simply the withdrawal from carbs though.

Sleep is a good idea. It will help and come tomorrow you will be ready to get through day 2!

As far as the water I'm on my 7th glass now, salt I didn't measure it but I'm sure I've used at least 1/3 tsp...... but I completely forgot my 2 cups of vegs at supper time, when you posted your reply that's when it clicked, so i'm munching on a plate of veggies as i'm typing this. Thanks

I wish you all well in your IP journey. I have a ways to go, but it has been great so far.

Thanks for the support in this forum!

That's awesome results keep up the great work. :high:

Hope everyone is having a wonderful day. My WI should have been tomorrow but the east coast is being hammered weekly with storms...so you guessed it snow in NJ tomorrow. Reached out to my coach to do my WI today and I am down another 2 lbs which is a total of 16 lbs in almost 3 weeks (Monday will be 3wks). I have to say I am so proud of myself and I am enjoying these little moments of success.

Congrats keep up the great job you are doing we are all proud of you too. :bravo:

I have lost 83 lbs. and 47 inches and I will be thin in 2011!!!!

Those results are awesome you are an inspiration to all of us. :bravo:

:) it can be easy to forget some things some times.

Definitely try to get in a little more salt, we need 1/2 tsp a day.

For water if you find 8 glasses isn't enough, try going between 80 and 100 ounces a day. MANY people on here have found that necessary. You can also count brewed decaf herbal teas as part of your water. And it's relaxing and soothing while you get over the next 3 days.

Have a great evening!

Can't believe I almost forgot lunch today! All right off to do dinner. It makes dinner seem so early!

See you all later!

Hi all - I think CuteEli asked this yesterday (sorry if it wasn't you) but I just got my new omeletes this week (and keep in mind I also bought them last week so I am looking at the nutrition information on both boxes as I type) this week my coach said they were a new formulation - the new stats on the omelete are as follows - 140 calories (used to be 100), 4.5 g fat (used to be .5) 25 mg cholesterol (used to be 0), Sodium 630 (used to be 150), Total Carbs 7 (used to be 3), Dietary Fiber less then 1g (used to be 1 g), Sugars 3 (used to be 0), Protein 18g (used to be 20) -- I realize the serving size is larger in the new omelet 35g vs 29 - but the protein is less and so is the fiber -- Does anyone know what is up with this???? -I liked the old formulation and now looking at the new ones I think I like the old ones even more -- Carla do you have any ideas on this???? My coach said they increased the fat to perhaps keep us satiated longer (which makes no sense since these were one of the highest protein packets available and thus very satiating as they were)

CheekyWit 01-20-2011 09:17 PM

Also for those of you looking for the new chocolate pudding and did not know this already.... it is here -- I just got it - it is now called Milk Chocolate Pudding Mix -- here are the nutritional details - Calories 110, Total Fat 0.5, Cholesterol 15mg, Sodium 110 mg, Potassium 290, Total Carbs 7, Dietary fiber 2 g, Sugars 4 g, Protein 18g (serving size is 31 g) -- again this one is higher in carbs then the other chocolate pudding and has less protein (so I might not get this one again - I am trying it tonight to see if it is that much better to justify the extra carbs)

I am curious where y'all find rice vinegar with low/no carbs? I've gone to 3 stores and can't find a lower carb one. Thanks!

That is exactly what I did to get through the first few days....SLEEP! Hang in there it does get better!!!
