KNM,
Did you gain back allot after your first try? I am really scared of gaining during phase off. Were you eating right and just didnt follow the IP phase off plan?

Sara,
I have been doing ok minus a cheat here and there. Its really tough though Today I drove by a Mcdonalds and wanted to stop and I also really wanted a starbucks iced with hip cream

The problem is with the term eating right...if you eat by the American food guide you will end up like Most north Americans, overweight.

Unfortunately McDonald's and Starbucks with whipped cream need to forever be occasional treats!

Phasing off is not the secret to success. It is continuing to track as you move away from phase 1 to see what is working and what is not.

The first few days of phase 1 includes all those difficult cravings, with none of the euphoria of the first weight loss.

And it never ends. I lost the battle with Easter candy last night. Today is a full phase 1 day. Tomorrow will depend on the scale.

This will be a challenging weekend.

Anne

I've had weight loss systems cheesecake pudding the past 2 days and I have been super hungry. I feel like that might be the reason for my cheats. Tiny cheats but still cheats
I know what you mean about maintenance. That's why I'm afraid of phase off and maintenance I fear I won't be able to succeed. My daughter is really hard on me mentally. Tonite she insisted on eating my salmon and threw a fit where I couldn't enjoy my boring dinner because of the way she was acting. I don't know why kids act this way, she had her own meal. Trust me a much yummier one than my meal. She's really hard on me. My other children are good, she's the one that's going to make all my hair gray prematurely

Sticking to P1 the second, third, tenth time around is so much tougher I find. I was so diligent the first time, but that one cheat, honestly screw with your head. I have had an AWFUL day today, beyond bad, embarrassingly bad.....I hate these days where the food has a terrible hold on me, but tomorrow is a new day and I will push through and get back on. I am going to be a very part time coach, only Wednesday evenings for a new clinic in the area, so my hope is it will keep me on track and honest with myself. I am excited but scared as heck that I won't be able to be........but I am going to be so thats it!!!!!!! Good luck to everyone, this is a long road of figuring out what works best for us individually.

Lexi - I basically gained everything back. But I won't blame anyone or anything but myself. I went from strict phase 1 to cheats and tried to get back to phase 1, but couldn't stay on track so went off plan completely. Didn't help that this was in December where there were Xmas parties every weekend and I was visiting my brother for a week as well.

Thanks Sara and Roo. A balance is definitely hard to find....I hope we can all figure this out one day. I am feeling the effects of my out of control behaviour from yesterday.....bad headache.....just blah! But that is good, makes me want to get back at it today. Gonna be a tough weekend, Carrie Underwood concert tomorrow night, with dinner out first, then of course the bunny visits......my 5 year old is so excited and says he will share his chocolate with me.......ummm no thanks buddy. Lol

Have a good day everyone!

My clinic seeks the mct oil
They sell many fitness related items as well as ideal protein.
Of you try it start slowly. I took too much early on and it is a extreme laxative. Lol

It is Medium-chain triglycerides. I guess that it can give you more energy, boost your metabolism and help burn fat. Here are a couple of the links that I found:
