IP BOOTCAMP WEEK - Start March 1
 

Here we go ladies (or gents),


Bootcamp rules:

NO restricted items
NO ocassional veggies
Water intake (1/2 your body weight)
NO substitutes or (IP or alternative products only)
NO CHEATS (No rationalizing cheats by comparing nutrients)
NO exercise

Post daily your food journal for accountability.

Let's see how we do this week by respecting the Protocol.
It will be great to compare notes on next Tuesday.

(Any changes or additions in the rules can be done on next weeks threads.
REMEMBER we are all in this together.!!

OK, here we go!!! I know for me I have to drink all my water and stay away from Ttrident sugar-free gum. It's slowing me down.

Hey,
Those rules should be easy to follow:P!
Looking forward to hearing about everyone's progress!

I am on board Teresa for boot camp! Will post my Journal tonight! Thanks for heading this up!

Thank Mary, it was her great idea!. A separate thread was a great idea because we are all following protocol 100%.so it will avoid discussions what some allow (small cheats)

Boot Camp
 

Thanks Teresa for setting this up. I had my WI this morning, I was only down 1, but lots of inches, pretty good considering I didn't have any IP products this week.
I will be posting my food intake tonight also. I could post now, but you never know I might sneak in another celery or two between now and then.
Pretty exciting people! I have high hopes for this week.
I'm going to head out on the Internet and find the listing of restricted veggies again. I'll post it when I find the link.
Lent starts next Wed. I don't have anything else to give up, so I might continue this through Lent if all goes well this week.
Mary

Restricted Veggies
 

Ok, here it is:

Please find attached the New Phase 1 sheet. I will be following it too a "T" for this week. As it says anything not on the sheet should be 0/0/0.

hi fluffy, it looks like you are missing a lunch packet. it is important to get all 3 packets in each day, even on boot camp.

Water retention
 

Anyone else having a problem retaining water? My ankles are puffy at night although I drink way more than 1/2 my body weight daily. I have always had this problem in the summertime, but it's still early and not all that warm out.
I do not add the extra salt and I quit taking Aleve for my arthritis because the label says noproxen sodium tablets. Also at the WI this morning, my blood pressure was 138/84, the highest it has ever been.
Is there a lot of sodium in the packets?
