Went to my first weight and I lost 10 POUNDS!!! I cant believe it. I am in shock. I was so surprised I went back on the scale to make sure that was right. Exactly 10!!! I bought alot of food today because I was so motivated. I also lost an inch of my waist and hips. I am thrilled. (It was also my TOM--which was hard for me)
Thanks to everyone who helped me get through the first week.

That's FANTASTIC! Good for you, girl!
Happy Monday, everyone! Just finished a vanilla peanut bar. I love those things. I love ALL the IP peanut bars. They really satisfy that peanut butter craving for me that I've had on this diet. Has anyone tried the new unrestricted garlic-herb chip things? I got a bag today, but I haven't tried them yet.
I have a restart appointment on Wednesday. I started last year and had great success while I was following the program. But, a vacation threw me off track and I never really got back on track and then I completely derailed. Now I'm back where I started! Very disappointed in myself. But, I am ready to fully commit. Hoping maybe some added support will help me get through. I remember the first few days being pretty difficult. I have a big birthday next year and hoping to start the new decade off better than ever! Seeing some of these great weigh-in numbers is really motivating.
Just started the protocol on 10/02. Had one weigh-in with a 17.4lb weight loss, and I go for my next weigh-in on 10/15. Hope that we all stick with this and do great! Here's to the rest of the Octoberlings!
Wow! That's fantastic!
Keep going!
You will get there!

Hi all! I started IP on October 9th and have my first weigh in tomorrow. VERY nervous about that. I was 100% perfect this week and will be discouraged if the scale doesn't budge! The doctor seems to think I will lose around 10 pounds. I sure hope he correct. Will find out in the morning and let you all know. I am REALLY hoping this works as I have tried just about everything and this is my last resort (other than surgery and I don't want to go there)!

I tried the garlic chips today at my appt. very tasty. will be great with salsa on one of my 2 tomato days
I started on Sept 30th so today is day 15 for me. I am down 5 lbs. I have been trying to follow protocol but I haven't signed up at a clinic so just trying to wing it on my own right now. Eating lots of protein and vegis I got very light headed today - does anyone know why that is, what causes it and how to get over it?
My clinic in VA does not exchange or take back any packets we dont like or use and they only sell food by the box. I have 2 drink packets I will never use because I dont like to drink my food.
I have:
1 packet of Wildberry Yogurt Drink Mix EXP 11/2014
1 packet of Peach & Mango Drink Mix EXP 11/2014
I am new - this is my first week so I am open to try other packets/bars of food. I do not like spicy food. Let me know if you are interested. I am in the Northern VA area outside of DC. I will send in US or Canada if it is not too expensive. Thanks

LOL. You and I have similar stories!
I restarted Oct 1. Lost 5 lbs the first week and now 3 lbs on Week 2. I never get the huge losses that lots do but every pound down is one in the right direction. I still have to do my measurement this morning. Hoping to see the inches widdling away too! I am doing it on my own using alternative products.
Good luck to everybody this week!
Why is it so easy to stay on plan during the weekdays and so difficult for the weekends? Does anyone else have that issue? It can't be that I'm bored because I work weekends too. I think it's psychological. These next 2 weekends I HAVE to try and stay on plan. I'm going to a wedding in 2.5 weeks and need to look great!
Back from first WI...down 7.2 pounds this week. I was hoping for 10, but still...7.2 is more than one pound per day. Hoping this will continue and I will be at goal before I know it!
Good for you, girl!
