WoodLily: I don't have time for a long response right now but I love No Cow bars. They're at GNC and Vitamin Shoppe...I love the chocolate fudge brownie. They're non-gmo, vegan, high fiber, gluten free, dairy free, soy free and lactose free.

I don't know why I can't edit my posts and the link isn't loading properly but go to gnc's site and type in "no cow bar"

I found this very helpful - how to kick start nutritional ketosis when at a plateau lasting longer than two weeks.

I noticed several posts about buying Quest Chips from Nashua. I got mine pretty cheap on Amazon. Looks like a better deal.

Hi Toban - I really like the chocolate drink and the chocolate wafers. Both are restricted.

I would love to hear others unrestricted favorites.

Quick question about the Quest chips. Would they be considered unrestricted?

life: Unless I'm mistaken and things have changed, the chocolate drink, both the powder and the ready-made have always been unrestricted. Also, yes, Quest chips are unrestricted.

I'm not new but it's been awhile since I posted regularly. Back at it and heading into my second week. Hope to see the boards pick back up but if not, I'm still going to be here!

Heyyyy gurlfriend!!! Long time, no see! I hope you are doing well, fill us old maintainers in if you care to share a bit.

Does anyone have a link to the most recent P1 protocol? Not sure if anything has changed since I was last here. Thanks!

To make a long, painfully embarrassing story short...(posted for those that may have missed it and are curious...)

From all I've gathered (mainly through a FB group) the sheet remains the same but many are saying that their coaches are limiting them to 2 cups instead of 4 cups of tomatoes a week if that is the only occassional veggie they eat. They can still have another 2 cups of a different occassional if desired. something to do with the glycemic index...

I don't go to a clinic any more. I am doing the alternative plan but still using what IP products I have left to go along with.

Hi all!
Im new here. Just joined IP less then a week ago. So far I love it and hope I am doing it right. I Am meeting with my coach in a couple of days.
Are you supposed to have 1 restricted food a day?? Or only if you want to? Will you see better results if you do 3 non restricted items?
And I am meeting sweet chili dorados for lunch? That is allowed??
Just want to make sure im doing it right. I love salty and this seems like the perfect diet for me with the dorados and BBQ crisps and salt and vinegar Chips.
All those things can axtuallt be eaten for lunch right?
Hope I am not doing it wrong!

IPGirl: I was always taught that it was 1 restricted and 2 non-restricted per day. You can have any packet you want for any meal so if you want soup for breakfast, the crisps for lunch and an omelet for your snack that's perfectly fine. Keep asking questions, that's how you learn!
