Thanks for adding me Lisa. I am still on "holidays" and won't be weighing in until next Friday. I would have weighed in on Monday but my clinic is closed on Mondays now in 2015
Really found the year end 2014 mini challenge motivating - especially during the holidays. It's all about holding myself accountable since I've been doing IP using alternatives and without a counselor. Looking forward to the IP 25 by Spring challenge. Thanks, Lisa, for all your efforts on our behalf!
I wasn't sure if we needed to check in each day or not. My actual weigh in is on Monday so I will probably change my week 1 weigh in at that time. I weigh in every two weeks instead of every week because of how far the closest office is to me. 45mins. - 1 hour. ;-( so I can weigh my self every other week and let you all know how I am doing. I hope everyone had a great new year!
Just requested access. Have been back on IP since September and lurking on the boards. Have a ways to go to get to goal so the accountability will be nice! Thanks for setting this up!
Well I faced the music and went in for my weigh in this morning. NOT good! But I now have the tools and am confident I can bring myself back on track lose what I gained and finally meet my end goal! I have our Christmas to celebrate this week and then I am done!
Wishing everyone a VERY Happy New Year & GR8 start to our weight loss journey!
If you've been added, get those current weights/weight goals in!
We're already into the first week and people are already posting Week 1 WIs.
The biggest part of this for me is making sure we have active participants.
I'm getting email requests from people who don't participate on the forum or who have joined but not participated in other challenges (causing me unnecessary work).
Read the rules carefully before requesting access. A 12-week commitment is MORE than a one or two day resolution. I'll soon be deleting people who haven't posted starting weights.
If you're brand-new, go to the daily chat and introduce yourself. Start participating in the forum. Late-starters are ALWAYS welcome but only active participants on 3fc IP The more you participate in the forum, the better chance of success!
Just submitted a request. I know I have missed the start date. I started IP November 22, 2014. WI today=down 17.5#. I have not cheated once! Has anyone experienced super cold hands and feet?

One of the classic signs of ketosis. I get it in the evenings, but not so much in the mornings. It's how I *know* when my body is burning fat.
Did the IP diet in 2013 with a coach. Found 3FC while I was on the diet and received most of my information and determination reading through the form, since my coach wasn't the best. I never actually made it to my goal weight, but close. Unfortunately gained most of it back and now restarted January 1 with alternative products. I'm ready to get this challenge going and phase out the proper way, so I don't have another setback. Three days in and no cheats -- I know that's a good start, but more days lie ahead. Keep up the good work everyone!
Hello! I sent you a request. I was on IP in 2013 and started participating in the 3FC forum. I moved towns and had no IP available to me Now a new year and a new town and I found IP once again! Very excited to be back.
Thank you! And looking forward to success with everyone
I lost 25# with IP back in 2012. It was a great program for me because I saw quick results. Unfortunately I gained those 25# back during my cancer treatment (the oncologist told me to eat whatever tasted good to me so that I would keep my strength up - yikes...he didn't know how much I liked sweets). I underwent 15 months of chemo, 1 month radiation and 6 surgeries. I finished treatments in September and I am ready to get my life back. I restarted IP on January 1st - it feels good to be back.
