Good afternoon everyone!! I have WI #6 today! Stayed OP this whole week but not having problems getting veggies in... will have to work on that next week but not stressing about it now! I love my new diet coach, she is just so supportive and I even told her about our forum here!! Hope everyone has a terrific day and weekend! Decorating a cake for a baby shower on sunday... this might be interesting

Surviving Day 3! I've been feeling really 'off' all day, but not entirely miserable so I count myself lucky. Just as long as it gets better!

I'm really having even more trouble than I expected with the taste of the sweet things. Or should I say the aftertaste... Adding ice and other flavors helps, but I really hope I get used to the taste soon, or my choices are going to be really limited.

are you using your sea salt, if so add some extra in there. When I feel like that I usually put some in palm of my hand and lick it then drink some water, it seems to help

I don't know what packets you're using but I, too, found the sweet ones cloying. But, if you put 16, rather than 8, ounces of water in the puddings they make a great shake and much more filling the the ready to drink and much less sweet. Then there are the omelets.

Hello all...I am a newbie to the sight but not a newbie to IP i have been on it since January 2011. I was in need of losing some weight was 189 and been to a hospital 2 times for heart pains. I guess that was my wake up call. I got down to 145 and then had to stop due to kidney surgery. i am on it again and need to get from 158 to 130. So I am here for support and to support others.
Glad to be here...

Welcome, billthecat! Glad to hear you're recovered from your surgery and back on program. Congratulations on all your success so far!
