Thank you! Are you going there for the national salsa day? I'll be there 3/8-3/14!!

Thanks Liana...

I had a good meeting with the coach at one of the local clinics. She's been doing IP for 3 1/2 years and had he first clinic in the area so she did an excellent job explaining the program and answered all of our questions. We have another session at the local hospital on Thursday.

Ha!!! I never heard of such a thing. I love salsa so might as well partake when I'm there. I'm going with my husband and the company he works for. They won some big safety award and the conference is that weekend. The company is sending us for free. Wear lots of bug spray! Don't want to get Zika.

Ok, I need serious help. Started IP on Feb 1. Lost 10 pounds, then gained back 3! I have been OP and have NOT cheated. I am about to give up. Can anyone help me? If I had cheated, it would at least explain the weight gain but that is just the thing, I have been OP from the beginning! Thank you in advance

3 pounds down, out of the blue, in 2 days. You just never know do you? Thinking I will quit thinking and just keep enjoying the ride!

Hi ruby, can u give link to online IP products. Very interested. Thx

Jumped on my scale today, it was bouncing back and forth between 199-200! I'm so close to one-derland I can taste it!
I started on Feb 1 at 228, and all I can say is this doesn't even seem real!!

Gum
 

I forgot to ask if I can chew gum? I am trying to quit smoking at the same time.

Ouch - best wishes

Protocol - Spry and I think some Dentine fits - that said, I chewed Extra Polar Ice the entire 9 months & lost 90 pounds - the problem with Extra is the sugar alcohol isn't protocol. I generally only chewed 1 slice per day, after lunch

Chiming in- yes, Spry is OP, however, do be careful to keep it to no more than 2 pieces- funny to think that the gum can actually slow you down- Personally, didn't have any until maintenance-and I probably have too much now....however that being said- my coach had mentioned that some of her people had slowed way down in P1 and the culprit seemed to be that they were having too much gum ... go figure! Best of luck with the smoking- it's a tough one, but you can do it!!!!

Thank you. The only problem with Spry is the taste doesn't last very long :(

I wholeheartedly agree with you there!! :^:

Good Morning Everyone! This is my first post and I just wanted to say hello :)
This is my 5th full day on IP and I must say that I am feeling FABULOUS!! I didn't have any of the most reported symptoms like headache, nausea, etc. at all. I have been following protocol 100% and do not feel hungry at all. It's amazing how a small bowl of soup or oatmeal, or a bar can keep you going.
I have my first weigh in tomorrow and am actually looking forward to stepping on a scale ......
My coach did a body analysis at my first meeting and I was told that my lean body mass is 139.6 pounds and that they like you to have an extra 30 to 40 pounds on top of that. I was most excited to hear that as it puts me at a reasonable weight instead of using the BMI that says I should weigh about 145 pounds.
Anywhoooo, I hope you are all having a great day!

Love, love, love Crispy Lemon Bars from Nashua Nutrition! Just saying...

Just read the posts about chewing sugarless gum. Wow...I've been eating by the handfuls! No wonder my losses have slowed. So the only other questionable thing I have been doing is spraying food with I Can't Believe It's Not Butter buttery spray. Does anyone have anything on that?
