Ive seen a few questions about soda. My coach told me at the beginning that sparkling water was OK. The IP RTD shakes are really thick. I mix 8 oz of sparkling water with every shake. It makes it taste like a chocolate soda and I get an extra glass of water in. I have done this almost every day since I started IP with no bad effects. I would guess you could do it with other flavors of IP too but dissolve in a little still water first, then add sparkling water. Don't shake sparkling water in shaker. I made that mistake!
Today is a new day....huge NSV for me I got my signature.....Thank you everyone for the support and good luck today and stay strong.....
Congratulations! The signature makes it more fun; eh? I love making the change to my current weight! Best of luck to you and welcome to the world of IP warriors!
Hi everyone, this is my first post I'm going to my Ideal Protein consultation tonight and I'm soooo excited. My sister has been on it for 6 weeks and lost 15lbs and 27.5 inches. I'm kind of a carb freak so hopefully I won't have to much trouble.
WI #4 for me this morning. Du Ta Da.....down another 4 pounds, 0.5inches. That makes 20 pounds and 35 inches total in 4 weeks. I went shopping last night and bought a new bra (that unfortunately did not go down) and a new pair of jeans and dress pants. I went from a size 22 to a size 18. Have a wonderful 100% OP day to all my fellow IPer's. WE CAN DO THIS!!!
That's great!!! I hope that I too can go down a pant size soon!! How exciting!!!

You did yourself a HUGE favor joining this forum!! The support here is AMAZING!!!!
Good morning everyone...well i'm back, I went off IP in the beginning of December with the hopes to continue on my own...but that did not work out in my favour!! So here I am...getting back to basics. I will go in the clinic today and start over....wish me luck!! It worked great for me when I started so there is no reason for it not to work for me now....summer is coming and i'm looking forward to a nice new bathing suit!!
Good morning all! I had a small slip up on Valentines day (my first since starting the program) but glad to report that I was back on 100% yesterday and keeping it up! I go for my WI tomorrow and hoping for a loss but I am sure that I threw my body out of ketosis.
Finally getting some nicer weather in WY (aside from the insane winds) Here is wishing everyone a great OP day!
i had my weigh in today and i am down another 4.6. so its a total of 78lbs in only 3.5 months. i am soooooo excited. hope everyone else is having as great a day as i am.
So I have more incentive to lose my weight.... My Boyfriend of 9 years proposed last night! So we're geetting married in the spring of next year!
By that time I will be a beautiful slender bride!
Yeah for you!!! So exciting, my boyfriend proposed December 27th and we have an August 6th date planned....so much to do in so little time!
Keep at it! You and I will both be HOT brides on our special days!
Cheating is such a negative word. You are not a cheater!! You just had a tough few days and you went off protocol. You will get back on. Everyone is here to help you. I live only a few miles away in Louisville, CO. When I started this in November, I pretty much let myself have as much protein as I needed the first 3 days to get into ketosis, then settled into the protocol and I was almost never hungry. I would be happy to be your cheerleader if having one would help. Send me a PM.

thank you lynn! i can't PM you though...it wont let me. I appreciate your support and encouragement. I am back on plan strong today. almost a 6 pound gain this week and the pain i was in last night was sooo not worth it. looks like my body doesn't really like that food even though my tastebuds do!
Ok.... Had my fourth weigh in today and lost 2 more lbs.... Yea!!!!!!!!!
