I agree 100% with webrover... Oh yes. Same concerns. Still sticking with the center tho'...mostly because I want to have the ability to get help in phase 3 and 4, which scares the dickens out of me. My counselor sucks big time...but I mostly just get the IP packets from her. I've also determined some of their stuff is really bad for me...like the soups because they have way more sodium than a well versed person would think of eating after making this kind of self commitment. I've lost just about 30 lbs since Jan 10th. Almost 1/2 way now. Have found myself using a few alternatives for variety, and know that a 2-3 egg white omlette with mushrooms and spinach are an OK substitute when I just can't face another shake or fruity drink. And getting info from great voices here on this forum for my confusion has been a boon. When I reach phase 3-4...probably this summer, I will make a lot of noise if I do not get what I need in both information and support from the center after spending so much money. Even if I have to involve the IP corporate. For now, I'm doing fine and logging consistent losses. My body loves this diet and is responding. This is not a program for cheaters...whether you use IP or alternatives...so getting the right program for my metabolism when so much else did not work has been the most important thing at the moment. But my priorities will change this summer as I attempt the later phases and my expectations will set the bar a good bit higher for IP as a company.
