Good morning everyone. I finally have a free morning to catch up on life...ahhh.
Looking forward to a smooth OP day. Weekend was a bit challenging with regards to schedule and running around, but other than having an extra packet on Saturday to help me and keep me going, I stayed OP!
It's tricky to deviate from the daily IP schedule that I've established, but I'm getting better and winging it on the go as long as I have my little travel pack of salt, IP bar, tea, stevia and vitamins.

I'm glad people allow me to do it, even if I'm late, it is waiting for me
Just wanted to express my gratitude, also, Lisa! And thanks for the encouraging words today. I have a running list of "Lisa-isms" that I pull up every now and then to keep me OP

Ditto, Lisa, thank you! BTW, did you make the Jicama chips and if so, how did you like them?
I ran outta time. Kale chips didn't get made, either. Got a LOT accomplished over the weekend, however. Bought the Kale. Bought the Jicama. It didn't look as nice as the last one I got. Maybe tonite...

Have a meeting tonight and don't really feel like dealing with the woman I have to, but such is life. Have a great day!
I wanted to thank rainbow for your kind words yesterday! You look amazing in your blue dress!
you are so very very welcome beautiful lady!!!!! oooo i want some snow!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Made jicama sweet this weekend but I think Im going to try it with popcorn white cheddar and garlic next time! already tasting the yumminess!
I made jicama for the first time this weekend and I am now addicted! I made mine sweet too, cinnamon and splenda sauteed in the parkay spray it was great. I cooked up a few batches to experiment and added water to one and really cooked it a long time until the cinnamon and splenda started to carmelize. I swear it was like a caramel apple.
Hi. I am a Newbie here and I have personally seen the great results with Ideal Protein. Is this something I can do on my own? The food part of it is self explanitory, I was just wondering where to find the nutritional information as to what the packages have in them and the dosages of the nutritional supplements. I cannot afford anymore right now but need to lose weight so badly. I have a few friends on this but am embarrassed to admit I cannot afford the products. I have protein powders of all different sorts here, I just wanna see which ones are the closest to IP's. Any help and info would be greatly appreciated. I have 40 pounds plus to lose. How did I let this happen? Oh wait...the wine! Well....willing to give it up now....something has to give!
I finally closed on my house this past Friday! It was a 2 year process and 5 different houses until one came through. Buying short sales is not so easy. I managed to stick it out the last 4 1/2 months without the stress let me get off program.
The lack of constant sublimial (or not so much!) stress is finally gone!!

WELCOME!!
There are alternative threads that will get you to similar products at reduced prices. Also, there are some spreadsheets that give the calorie, carbs etc for many items look at the first message in this thread for lots of info.

Attachment 43616 Here is a sheet that explains a lot. There are many people, myself included, who have switched for financial reasons so please don't be embarrassed. The website where I ordered products was www.nashuanutrition.com There are several site though. I compared the nutrition labels with those of ideal protein by going to www.plainprotein.com and pulling up the labels of the products I like. It's amazing how similar the products are!
I still have a slight stomach virus. I had all of my veggies for the day but couldn't stomach the rest of my chicken for lunch. would i be allowed to have the rest later with my strawberry banana drink?

I was told by my coach when I started that you could fit the food in anytime if the day that works for you. Other coaches seem to have a regiment.
I personally change my menu arrangement as needed and don't see any difference due to timing.

No more air mattress for me at the parents house!

but feeling better today and ready to take on the week!!!!!!
