I am so sad!!!! The Proti Thin Sweet Rolls I used to get are no longer available on Nashua! When did this happen??? Does anyone still get these somewhere in cyberspace? They were so low in carbs and were my emergency bread/roll/donut craving fix.

Ok so I am new to starting IP with alternatives (never done IP before at all) but I am taking JLUS' and Lisa's advice and I am reading all of the Alt products threads. I have read all of 4 so far and am halfway through 5...and... I am starting today! Hope to share more with you soon.

Default Quest bars
Since most quest bars are restricted if I only eat half can I consider it 1 "packet"? The amount of protein will be on the low end of the unrestricted limit.

Why don't you just eat it as your one restricted per day?

I am a fan of all Proti-diet and Proti-thin products.

2 reasons I guess. 1:those are all I have right now besides shakes and I don't want to drink that many shakes. 2: I don't know if I can eat the entire thing when it doesn't taste so great. What do you think about only eating half at least for now until I place an order with Nashua?

But like Lisa says - you are SUPPOSED to have one restricted item every day. If all you have are Quest bars and shakes until your Nashua order arrives, that's 2 shakes and 1 bar per day and you're perfectly on plan! Don't shortchange yourself

You can also do eggs as a packet replacement - 1 egg and 2-3 egg whites equals a packet - so maybe an omelet or scrambled eggs for breakfast, a shake for lunch, and then a Quest bar for your evening treat?

Thanks, got it! Also, just wanted to share this soup recipe for others who are looking for other alternatives. I used sodium free Herb-Ox chicken bouillon with 0 fat, 2 carbs and 1 g protein, plus I used 1 egg and 3 egg whites, and sea salt to taste. Someone please let me know if I did wrong by the diet.

Default how many packets?
Hi everyone,

I am thinking about trying the IP diet. Is it standard 3-4 IP packets per day for everyone. I weigh about 245 and was wondering how many I need.

thanks
