Inspirational quote for today, I hope your all having a wonderful day today!
You never know until you try.
And you never try unless you really try.
You give it your best shot; you do the best you can.
And if you have done everything in your power,
And still fail--the truth of the matter is that you haven't failed at all.
When you reach for your dreams, no matter what they may be, You grow from the reaching;
You LEARN from the TRYING; you WIN from the DOING."

Hi Scrosson,
I havent lost enough to know yet where its coming off of, so cant help you there yet... maybe in a week or two ok...
The gang is quiet today, hope everyone is doing ok...
Happy Saturday everyone, even though i work today lol I finally got past the 140 mark last night, I can honestly say I have been starving on this diet, and my eyes have been very blurry but im hoping that its because my system is getting straigtened out. My ketostix turned purple yesterday which is a good sign that means Im burning fat now... hows everyone doing? kinda quiet , hope you all have a great day today ...
Hi All!!
I too am doing the IP diet and I am seeing amazing results. With my first month done I am down 19lbs. It does get easier as the weeks fly by (and yes...they fly by quickly!!!)
What does every think about their "coach" ..mine seems to be very little help, ..but I have learnt quite abit on here in other forums.
Heres to being a "loser"
Cheers

Welcome to your group Raising the Bar, where bouts you at in alberta? maybe we can help each other more if we are closer...i love your weight bar, can you help me get one too? I have a wedding May 29 and want to be down 30 lbs. It looks like your doing very well... I just started this past monday and Im down 3 lbs I havent but seen my coach but once and wont see her till wed as im in a different town...
Good Morning Northstar,
I am in Edmonton, so there is some miles between us.
As far as the weight bar goes, if you click on "quick links" and then "sig weight tracker" you can create the tracking bar, after that you will have to copy and paste a code under where you edit your signature. ( I hope that makes sense as I am not very good with the comp...)
I lost 10lbs my first week, by just sticking to the program. My first few weeks were pretty tough, I was tired and my legs felt pretty weak. Just keep on doing the program and eating all your lettuce and veg, don't forget the salt and oil. You will do great and knock them out at the wedding!!!
Good Morning Raising the Bar,
My daughter helped me with the sig weight tracker but apparently you cant have your signature for 20 days after you sign up with the website, so as soon as my 20 days are done I will... I go up to Edmonton to see my boyfriend so one day while hes studying we should meet for a coffee, ok... if you want... Im down another lb today, i found this week to be tough, I bumped up my food a bit and started losing weight... I see your the same height as me, and want to weigh 140 I am ok at that, but really like weighing between 125-118 thats where i feel my best. I actually started this at 143.6 but didnt join till a day later so Im down to 138.2 today and still have today for my week, so will see what I weigh tomorrow.
I will wait one more week to start my treadmill again and weights, as I just finished my basement and my equipment has been parked in the garage for 2 months since I moved here. lol
I love your weight bar with the happy bumble bee lol
I need to remember my oil i forget it alot, so maybe put it on the counter so as to remember to take it every single day!
Well today is my birthday and I have friends coming to take me to lunch, I hope you have a great day today! Keep me posted ok on your weight lose and life... hugs me
