  • I work out of town on a 7 days on 7 days off schedule so when I leave for work I need to ensure I have the appropriate foods and enough IP packs. Supper at camp is hard, not very often you can ensure they will have a meat I can eat that isnt covered in some kind of sauce or deep fried.. So difficult to keep on track.
    I do have one friend and her husband who were doing the program. She reached her goal weight but is still so supportive and texts me when I am out of town working to see how I am holding up. I am so glad to have her and this forum. Seeing everyones success is a real motivator!
    Keep up the good work! I love the quote used earlier by Jazzie
    "Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels"
