But I have to remind myself, and while at it, I will remind you -- this IP program works as an expression of body chemistry. Every extra sweet item that comprises a cheat --most of your cheats seem to be sweet stuff just as my extra IP is always a sweet item --- every little nibble is just enough to throw the chemistry off balance and when you do that consistently, you are keeping the chemistry from working to help you lose weight.
See if you cannot just talk yourself into saying 'no' to those little cheats -- you deserve better!! You just have to behave in a way that allows you to achieve the losses and become the shape and size that you deserve to be. The days will go by whether you are saying no to cheats or not.... in a few weeks, I am sure you would rather be down 10 lbs instead of lurking around your current scale numbers.
And Amanda is right - we have quite a gang forming over on myfitnesspal - I have the same screen name there as I have here, too. Free app - great database of the very foods we are eating including all the IP stuff. The food diary is easy, and adding in exercise is equally as simple. Nice dashboard of info, and the daily tally of nutrients becomes very informative. Come join us!!

So sorry to hear how you are struggling - I have been having an extra IP item here and there this past week - somehow just feeling hungry - perhaps due to other issues going on in my space besides my weight loss issues!But I have to remind myself, and while at it, I will remind you -- this IP program works as an expression of body chemistry. Every extra sweet item that comprises a cheat --most of your cheats seem to be sweet stuff just as my extra IP is always a sweet item --- every little nibble is just enough to throw the chemistry off balance and when you do that consistently, you are keeping the chemistry from working to help you lose weight.
