I'm new to all of this so I apologize if I'm posting in the wrong area.

I finally pulled the trigger and successfully survived my first week following an alt IP protocol. So far, I am having great success, although the first couple of days I felt horrible However, I am down 12 lbs for WI today I even survived hosting my husbands birthday party and cooking vast amounts of food of which most I could not eat. The weird thing is while my brain knows I didn't get to eat the food, I had ZERO cravings for any of the food I saw everyone else eating. Very strange.

Thanks everyone for the encouragement and support! I've never done a diet like this one and it is taking a little getting used to. In all honesty, I've weighed myself every day because I really can't believe that much weight came off that fast???

Holy Smokes! Where are you in Lake Zurich??? That's where I am too! Are you on Ideal Protein, or are you doing alternatives?
