I use 90-95% IP the only thing I do outside of IP is shakes and bars I can find great alternatives for between $1 and $0.55 per serving opening my budget up to more exciting IP products (cheddar ridges yummy!!!!)

Strictly IP although I do plan to look into alternatives but only once I hit maintenance. Only reason; like most of us, is cost.

Default atkins products
In the past the Atkins products have stalled my weight loss. I am doing strictly IP products. The first week I was drinking power aid zero and that screwed me up I only lost 2 pounds but then lost 8 pounds the second week. Just started 3rd week and hoping for 3 to 4 pounds.

I'm still in Phase 1 of IP, lost 10 lbs. I'm going alternative after 6 weeks on IP because of the high cost. Now I can have more variety too. I must say, I've noticed that the Nashua products aren't equal in volume to IP. For example, I get 4 oz less of their egg omelett than I do with IP. I love IP's omelett and will miss it.

The IP omelet is much bigger and still less calories than two Nashua omelets

I've been strictly IP but just made an order for some Protidiet products. I checked the nutritional info using the charts you nice ladies provided. Due to costs, it's just hard to continue to buy IP if the alternatives are the same but half the price.

I'll see how it goes and if my weight loss becomes really slow, I'll probably switch back to just IP.
