I <3 my new waffle maker, lol.

D: Something from Applebee's on plan (have 1 hour between work and a meeting to grab dinner)

I wanted to ask your opinion on something. I noticed that a few IP users are actually using other brands products. It kind of sparked my interest as i wouldnt mind saving a few bucks. Do you think that i could swap out IP snacks to the Proti-thin snacks? without having any adverse affect?

B-Choc drink with mint
L-Roasted Broccoli with garlic and rosemary, and an IP vanilla crispy square
D-Lemon thyme chicken with asparagus and a salad
S-Choc drink blended with cinnamon

Hi! Yes, tons of us use alternative products. Many Proti-Diet and Proti-Thin products are in line with IP's nutritional facts.

If you search, there are many previous threads on alternative products.

I probably use 95% IP products and 5% Alternatives. My favorites are Apple Pie Quest Bars, Proti-Thin Peanut Butter and Smooth Caramel Crisp Bars and Weight Loss Systems Creamy Cheesecake Pudding.

Hope that helps!

Can i have 2 hard boiled eggs instead of a IP in the am ?

MANY of us use "alternative" products in place of the IP packets (I did 19 of my 29 weeks on off-brand products). If you search through the forum, you will find SEVERAL threads on alternative products that are compatible with Phase 1 - what they are, where to buy them, what nutritional info to look for. Good luck!

B coffee w/ vanilla casein protein
