That's awesome!! Keep it up :)

Great weigh-ins, Pampered Kate and Emsmom97!

Appraisal is done. I am totally exhausted. Parent conferences start tomorrow. Going to bed early, I hope!

New starters, sounds like things are moving along. Definitely have sympathy for those of you suffering the headache. It does get better.

Oh, and good luck tomorrow, Wine4me!

I am on day three of IP. Thank goodness for this forum. I will be checking in every day for motivation! Feeling a bit grumpy and brain dead right now but starting to feel better after reading your posts and settling down with my green tea :D

It does get better. Make sure you have your salt and plenty of water. They really help.

Hi :welcome2:
Glad you're joining us. Hang in there! It gets a lot easier after day 3.

WAY TO GO!!!

I was quite the bear, and it's been a couple days since I've been moody. It does get better!!

Yay for appraisal being done!! Get some sleep and don't forget to take care of yourself through the chaos!

Starting Day 3. Had the worst headache all day yesterday. Where did I see the recipe for Big Mac in a bowl? I just saw that and though it looked good, but can't remember where.

I am bursting with excitement and I just had to post. A little background for anyone that is not familiar with my story. I started IP last August, lost 50lbs in 3 months, without a single cheat...then everything just blew up! I tried and tried for months to not cheat, and eventually I took what was supposed to be a short break. I've tried and tried several times to restart and I messed it up every time after only a day or two. Well here I am again, and I am so happy to say that I made it through my entire first week, CHEAT FREE!!!! And the payoff? I lost 8.4 lbs!!! This is more than I lost the first week the first time I did IP and I was almost 15lbs heavier that time! I am finally feeling like I can do this. I know it's a slippery slope though...I can't even read that 90% thread, no way, not risking it! Hope everyone has a fantastic OP day!

:-) congratulations! No cheat weeks are awesome and so motivating! Its a great nsv just try to remember this feeling for the next 7 days :-)

Hi everyone!
I'm just coming back from my weigh in. I lost 3 pounds and 4 inches this week.

Congrats, wanta! That is awesome. :carrot:

Congrats all!!! We share the same stats, Bella73123, but I am on day 2. Feeling okay, but definitely foggy minded, which is bothersome. Good for you to get back on track! You are strong and you can do it!!
