Now I can hardly wait, the eggnog sounds awesome, I want to be as true to this as possible during the holidays this will certainly help. Now all I need is the turkey!!!

Stick to the pieces as far into the turkey as possible, try to stay away from the outside as much as possible.....just a suggestion

Thanks for all the advice... Had a horrible day yesterday, did not eat as much as I was supposed to, today either. I never ate anything I wasn't supposed to but just not as much as I needed to. Only had one packet of jello yesterday and have had none today. I have an appointment Thursday morning at 9:30 for my weigh in. Today is Day 9 and I know I have lost and if my scale is the same as my coach's then I am down 15 pounds, hopefully the last 2 days don't impact my weight loss. Anxious for my app't and to get my product (will be getting 2 weeks worth so I dont end up in this situation again) and get back on track.

Good luck! Feel terribly for you. Glad Gaia and Kelly1962 might be able to help!! Hang in there and let us know how it goes!

The bars are not an issue at all. Her attitude is. You lost 12.6 lbs the first week and she is concerned you didn't have a big loss the next? Your body had a huge job adjusting to the large amount you lost in week one. Of course you wouldn't have a big loss in week two.

Thanks Pat, I agree, my husband also lost 12 and my daughter lost 10 none of us had a great 2nd week but your right it is a huge loss and not one I'm going to grieve either. My husband said " we'll save money on gas since there was over 30lbs less weight in the car" lol. I think some coach need a little more education on the IP matter, but it works and I with percieve!

Hey there Tmg 1989 keep your head up and be proud any pound lost is better then a pound gained. And we all fall down sometimes but we will pick ourselves back up brush off and continue, just make sure you keep yourself healthy in the process

Hi Wuv, the best part of the turkey is closest to the center, it's to darn close to the stuffing!

LOL....well we don't do stuffing so its all good at our end....lol....just pick an 8 oz piece and you should be good to go

Another thing to try if you can't find the EAS drinks (rich dark chocolate is really good and the strawberry tastes just like strawberry milk!) is to have 8 oz. of non-fat, plain greek yogurt sweetened with a bit of splenda if you like. It's low fat, low carb and has 24 grams of protein per 8 oz. You could also find Jillian Michaels whey protein powder and make your own shakes. I haven't tried that yet, no opinion on the flavor. The Pure Protein bars are good, I've tried the chocolate chip and the pnut butter and chocolate ones. I am also a person who shows up early to appointments. When someone is late, it really frustrates me, but you have to sit back and remember that she was only 15 minutes late maybe. Everyone can make a mistake and it is a busy time of year. Even the best people get scatterbrained right now, too much to try to do. Give her another chance. Unfortunately, worst case scenario, you may just have to treat her as a salesperson and get all of your coaching from here. That's what I did. You're still going to lose weight. You will just have to be super responsible and make sure all of your bases are covered all the time. Definitely get a couple of extra boxes of food when you can. A little variety helps and it also will hold you over if an appointment is missed again. Good luck!

hi Wuv, I'll keep the stuffing at the other end of the table with the mashed potatoes with 15 people at the table maybe they won't notice what's not on my plate.

Thats to far for you to come to the Toronto area. There is a website for ideal protein where you put in the postal code and they come up.

Maybe look for another place.

I hate hearing these stories please contact your coaches boss IDP is only to be sold by medical professionals so your coach should have a boss and that is where I would start . Dont get to discouraged your hard work and effort will pay off for you. Kacie
