I love this thread! All of your losses are so amazing and motivating! I started IP six weeks ago and had to switch to alternatives a week later. But, with the help and support here I am down 20 pounds in six weeks. I am 57 and post menopausal. That feels so WONDERFUL! My daughter keeps saying, "Wow Mom, twenty pounds!". This is definitely a new way of life for me.

Great idea! I am never going to lose at the rate I would have 30 years ago.....but I am thrilled with how I am losing now! You look wonderful! I can't wait till I get back in the "hundreds" it's been more than 12 years.
my counsellor doesn't feel i'm doing well. not sure why i'm not losing much. she just criticizes everything i do. like the diet isn't hard enough. i was originally 58 lbs. week 1 lost 5lbs, week 2 lose 2 lbs, and week 3 a 1.5lbs. very little inches lost. why doesn't she help me figure this out. frustrating.

Looks like yoru average on target so I don't know why she would be criticizing you. List what you eat in a day for us to see if we can help you figure it out You are doing fine!

i usually have the shake for breakfast and a coffee with little milk, 2c. cucumber for lunch and a shake, snack i usually have in the afternoon (usually the zippers), chicken or tilapia or steak for dinner and a salad, no tomato with WF dressing.
every time i come home from my wi i feel like i want to quit all together. don't know what to do.
she keeps telling me people are losing about 10 a week and inches. yesterday i got on the scale and i was down 2.5 lbs and today i was back up a pound. not sure why it fluctuates like this.
