I'm new to posting around here, but I vist the site daily. I appreciate all the information and encouragement that everyone shares, it's awesome!! I started IP through a clinic in June of '12, but stopped going because I didn't feel I wasn't getting the support or information I needed for success...and I wasn't going to keep paying that kind of money for nothing!

I restarted IP-Alternatives and have been OP for a month. I'm down 11.8 (possibly more, it's currently TOM) for my first month. I know I can do it this time with my drive and the lovely advice and encouragement from you all!

Thank you all and Happy Friday!!

Even though I've been in maintenance for a few months, I love lurking in this thread and reading about everyone's losses! Congrats to everyone!

Thank you!! When I was at my heaviest (387) I started an exercise and diet regimen. I started out slow, but I did cardio 6-7 days a week and ate approval approximately 1200 calories a day (lean meant, veggies, whole grains, etc.) My lowest weight has been 225(where I plateaud for almost a year), but I've unfortunately gained some back.

I went to a weight management clinic in my town and met with a Doctor. I told her my story and saught her help in losing the last of my weight. While she was nice and impressed with what I had lost she said that my weight at 225 may be where I'm supposed to be.

I didn't agree, found IP and I'm here to lose and reach a HEALTHY weight and then move onto maintaining! One of these I'll have to upload photos of my journey!

Absolutely. The carb count is just what makes the diet ketogenic (without the extra carbs your body doesn't have a glycogen store to pull from and is what causes the body to burn fat instead of glycogen for energy). It is the CALORIE deficit that actually makes you lose weight. If you are eating more calories, you will lose more slowly because there is less of a difference between what your body needs to function and what you are taking in.
