Hi everyone,
So happy I found this site as it looks as though there is a lot of fun sharing stories with each other.
Hopefully with your help I will achieve my weight goal.

I am looking for some help, advice, suggestions! I am currently at sort of a stand still and either maintaining the same weight or up 0.2#s...I have been doing Ideal Protein Since May 17, 2013 (signed up at 3FC in Feb 2014) and have lost a total of 65#so far.
My coach and I sat down and looked at my daily schedule, and she is at a loss... and told me that my schedule is working against me and the Ideal Protein program. I am on a modified version of phase 2... I guess its modified... I do know my coach put me on it due to money issues. Okay... here is my daily schedule. I am a CNA at a nursing home and work second shift. I usually get up around 10:30am or so, and have a drink (Pineapple Banana or peach mango).... then some where between 12:30pm and 1:30pm I will eat lunch (8oz Protein, 2 cups veggies and a salad usually). Then I will go to work bout 2:30pm. My dinner break is only 30 minutes and is at usually 4:30pm.... I usually have 2 cups veggies, and 8 more oz protein. Then I will have my Restricted some where between 7:30pm and 8:30pm. I work til 11pm and usually go to bed about 12 or 12:30. On my days off I try and stick to this type of time frame. I am getting anywhere from 75 - 100 oz of water in a day. My coach says it stinks and wishes I could move my break and my supper to when I have my snack (restricted). I guess what Im looking for is any suggestions to tweek what I am doing now to some how get my body going again and everything working together again and get back on my losing ways.... If anyone has any type of questions please let me know and I will answer them to the best of my ability! Thanks in advance for any help any one my be able to pass my way. Thanks and God bless!!

Hi Susan and CNAKL

Welcome both.

CN, it would probably be a good idea to repost your question in the forum about ideal protein. Where you are now, on someone else's' thread, no one knows you are here asking this question unless they happen to open this thread. And most people probably don't. I would think most people on the same diet as you would open your thread if you repost there.

Also it would be easier to read if you could spread it out a little. Its too condensed with information to be able to read and take in easily.

SusanDenny: Welcome! This is a great place for support and inspiration so jump in wherever you feel comfortable. Best of luck as you start this journey and hopefully we'll be seeing more of you around the boards!

CNAKAYL14: Welcome to 3FC! I agree with pattience that you'll likely get a better response if you ask this question in it's own thread on the Ideal Protein board here. That's not the strategy I'm using so I'm of no help on the subject, sorry! Good luck.
