I'm also excited about all the success stories on this forum. I didn't have issues staying OP all week and don't think I'll have many issues for a while, however I could see me getting bored with the limited options and I love all the tips and tricks other IPers have all over this place!

Welcome, Mandus!
You did so great your first week! Congrats!
I just love being off dairy. I actually feel 'clean' from head to toe
after 55 days of no dairy.
IP seems like the best diet on the planet!

So we heard about a "magic pill" that would take all the fat and worry away. We were on board. did that for about a year. Lost 55lbs. I've managed to keep most of it off. Not on my own though. You see I had colorectal cancer 5 years back. So for years i've been dealing with the damage the chemo and radiation has done to my body. So for about 3 years now if I am totally honest. I've only been able to eat very little. Mostly rice. I would get so sick if I ate anything. Until recently . About a month ago and 15,000 dollars later my Dr. found somewhat of a cure. So I recently have been able to eat "real food" . But of course my body has been in starvation mode for year. Packing weight on little by little . So now I am so mixed up on what to eat I resort to quick fixes. Anyways Long story short. lol or long story longer. I have my appointment on Thursday. I am so excited. I've been watching youtube all morning. I need to learn how what and when to eat all over again. I need a fresh start. My body needs this fresh start. Looking forward to making new friends.

Hi Mary,
You're going to LOVE IP and I believe your hubby will come around...
he'll see your happiness and new found freedom - then he won't care about ______ - is it the $$$ that's bothering him?
Have a great week!

Hi Mary - if it comes up, be sure to tell him that diet is for weight loss, exercise is for overall health. Has he ever heard that "you can't outrun a bad diet"?
Seriously though, there's a lot of good information about this diet in the 1st page of the daily chat including Dr. Tran's book which helps explain the ideas behind it.
There a bunch of people here who have been avid exercisers long before they started the diet and still couldn't lose the weight.

Hi Mary,
I'm in Austin too. If you need any advice on where to eat out and remain OP, just let me know. I think your success will convince your husband to give you more support. Good luck with your journey!

Hi!
Hello all,
I started IP 5 weeks ago and have been reading this forum all the while. It has been a big help, esp recipes and seeing others success. I've lost 22 lbs, but I am still hungry all the time! I've been 100% OP since starting. Has anyone else had to deal with hunger this long?

I've been in and out of threads on here, but I thought I'd join in here.
I did IP about 2 years ago and had great success, but unfortunately, I've gained most of it back. I'm not doing that again! I'm blessed because my mother is doing it with me as well so we can motivate each other and help out with recipes.
Good luck to all!
