I'm so sorry about your mom {{Hugs}}. You've gotten some great suggestions and the people at the hospital are usually very helpful.
Hi everybody! It's been a busy day today, very much enjoyed the soak in the hot bath tonight.
I made the Crackslaw for the first time tonight - wow, it is yummy! I think I have a new favourite!
Hope everyone is having a great IP day!
Jo

Your recipe link goes to Facebook but not to any content - says it cannot show the content and the link may be no longer active...
If you can get to it and post it in a recipe thread here, that would be fabulous!
And Happy Happy Happy Birthday!!! I hope you have been celebrating your day and enjoying it! (with non-food celebrations, of course! - no need for me to mention this - I am sure you have made staying OP a gift to yourself!)

Bummed  Up .8 lbs this week, but lost 4.0 of fat. Guess the fat loss number is good -- but being up sure doesn't feel good.  I'm sure it's water weight, I just have to stay focused!

Thanks a bunch, Lisa! I found it and will try it out - I may also do a variation that incorporates the IP potato puree!

Met with my coach today and received my information packet and food for the week. So excited to begin this journey. I have been reading posts all weekend and feel so encouraged by all the successes I have seen on here. Looking forward to eating OP and weighing in on Monday, January 25th.

Welcome rebelgrl87!!!
This is a great program for losing pounds -- and if you follow the maintenance protocols to phase off, you can work the program to maintain your losses.
This forum has lots of useful info and a pretty supportive gang of fellow IPeeps who are happy to share in your journey. You are stepping into an environment full of potential for success!!

New to the discussions
Hi everyone, I have been lurking shyly in the background for a few months, but now I am IN! Just want to say how much I admire everyone's stories and perseverance and the great things about this IP lifestyle. I have been on the plan since September and have lost 26 pounds. I finally joined after watching my husband lose over 100 lbs in less than a year, since he started last January. His success was amazing, and so I got on board too. I have not been this weight since before I had kids. It is a great feeling!
Really like all the creative ideas, too, for recipes.
Tonight I made some celery root french fries (Chef Verati posted this on his Facebook page) and once I figured out that the celery root could be edible (have you seen one? Oh my! They don't look very appetizing...) and cut it up into fries and baked them, boy were they good! Not McDonald's fries, but tasty.
Back to work tomorrow. Wishing everyone a great week!

2. Any word on veggie cheese? I saw it in the store (next to the tofu) and was wondering if it's acceptable
On my unofficial home scale this morning, I'm at my lowest weight in 10 yrs. Hopefully, that will be reflected on the official WI in 48 hours. |
Etherbunny, I use veggie cheese quite liberally and count it in my veggie count. I did this the entire time during my first go round with IP and lost 2.6 lbs a week. My coach's opinion was if you are seeing the lose using it then it's fine. she had told me many of her clients used it. It really helps make food seem normal. Such as making Pizza with the Tomato soup and burgers with the broccoli cheese bread and adding cheese. I think it's different for everyone the alterative products you can add and get away with.
I will use veggie cheeses forever, the parm cheese my entire house can't tell the difference.
Happy cheesing !!!
