It does seem that different folks require different things to stay on track. No surprise. Some of us need to feel that the rules are rigid for our own good and some of us need to know we will be forgiven by their metabolisms for slip ups.

It was easy for me to jump back on IP being 100% OP because I have seen incredible results and I have decided to keep at it until I reach my goal. If I see the slow weight loss again, I'll probably do the same thing. Everyone is different, so what works for one, might not work for another.... |

By the title of this thread I honestly thought this was a troll. Assuming it's not at this point, after reading the entry...

I want to say that I am upset that this thread was posted, since with my own experience, I know that cheating is not the way to go, believe me. And I am scared that some newbies would assume that it is ok to cheat on this diet and that it might even be a boost to their weight loss (which is wrong)
I know from my own experience that cheating on this diet put me way back and I regret each and every moment I did, I wish I could go back in time and undo it, but I can't and now that I can't, it got sooooooo hard for me to go back 100% like I used to be, I struggled like crazy to go back on this program just because I decided that I wanted to cheat for my Christmas break (which by the way continued until my Easter break plus some more), so I lost time and money and most of all I did not lose the weight I wanted to lose and now that I see my fellow Ipeeps who stuck with it and I see their numbers and mine, I really regret my acts. So, please, do not consider cheating, you will only be cheating yourself. Sincerely. |

My coach had me have a cheat day - because I platued - but it did the opposite for me - was so hard for me to get back on track...that I ended up having more cheat days and just fell off the wagon completely.
I'm more of a rule follower - so as long as I'm on IP - I am strict with it - because I know I can't just have a cheat day to trick my body into losing more. Having said that - this time around - I'm varying my meals (since I got into a soy patty and choc pudding rut - I think my body adapted to that and plateaued and wouldn't drop anymore). |

It's about making wise decisions, wise choices for ourselves. We really can't tell other people what to do because we are so fundamentally different. I love that people try to protect others from sliding down that slippery slope but you can't do it. You can't jump through the computer and knock those cookies off of anyone's table. We each have to learn our limits and based on what I have seen here some are classical and some like to jazz a bit. |
