So without too many personal details. Today has been a huge challenge, to not emotional eat. I have no appetite but in the past I would try to sooth these feelings with food. Please think good thoughts for me.

Nola, I am sending good thoughts your way. You have come so far, you are strong enough to face these emotions. I know that things may seem tough but no food is really going to change that. I believe in you! :hug:

Nola congrats on acknowledging your feelings and old responses! Be proud of yourself for making those mental changes for yourself! I'll be praying for you!

Good day everyone.
Lately I just don't feel hungry. I find it very hard to eat all the food or even drink enough water. I started doing yoga again to try and tighten up some of my problem areas. It felt really good, but not as good as it used to. I feel a little depressed and not sure if it's related to the weather or stress at work. But because of this my loss has slowed down, I'm wondering if I have gone into starvation mode. Sorry to be a bummer, I just needed to get it off my chest. Hopefully things will improve sooner rather than later. May everyone else's week be brighter. :) |
Nola - thinking positive thoughts for you. Stay strong and know we are all here for you when you need a boost!

Thanks all.

Congrats, everyone, on the good weigh-ins, the new panties, and just motivating and re-motivating yourselves and others on this board! Some challenges, some successes- we can do this!
Today was a rough day; sat in a meeting for 2.5 hours with parents and felt very attacked. Didn't have time to cook my pork roast (due to leaving school close to 6 pm) so I stopped at hubby's work and got some steak and double veg. Despite the awful meeting, i felt no desire to emotinally eat. I find that a huge NSV for myself. Quote:

The weather could certainly be bringing you down, or the stress at work, or a combo. Here's some sunshine-y thoughts coming your way!!! |
Renee, hope that tomorrow is a better day! Great job sticking to program through the parent induced stress.

Tried another new food today, thanks to this board. I did the roasted cabbage (thick slice, brushed with EVOO and seasonings sprinkled on). SOOOO yummy! Made a few chicken strips seasoned with garlic powder and dipped in WF Honey Mustard. I have been wanting to try some new things and the cabbage was amazing. I'm so thankful for this board and the recipes and ideas. I honestly feel like I'm eating not only healthier (obviously) but better tasting foods than I was before IP. I can see me doing this for life, not a problem!
Feeling so satisfied!! |

I did it when I originally did IP, but not at the 4 week mark (long story). Short story -- don't worry about it and don't bother with it. In prowling the internet, it appears Ideal Protein no longer suggests using fiber supplements such as the Novi-lax which was part of the Novi Cleanse kit. I think they are releasing a new product which is a probiotic. Bottom line, stay the p1 course and no need for Novi Cleanse. (It didn't really do that much anyway--first week it slows the weight loss then you get a loss to kind of make up for it and then afterwards you lose at the same rate, well at least that is what I remember for me.) |

As for staying with a coach, that depends on you. Then again, the $85 for forever coaching is only an awesome deal if...you expect that the business is solid and will be around "forever" (or at least a few more years) and if the coaching you get is worth more than "don't blend your packets". I haven't followed your whole story, so are you switching clinics or will you get a year of p4 coaching even if you select not to do it forever? |
I've discovered zucchini noodles and WF tomato sauce. I am in HEAVEN! My husband keeps saying some of these recipes feel like we are cheating, they are so good. Last week we had pork fried cauli rice and it was awesome!
