Hi all
day 2 for me. I thought this would be a good habit, plus it is very helpful to see what others are doing

B- IP milk choc pudding made into smoothie in my Vitamix w/
1.5 c half decaf coffee
2 c spinach
1 c ice
(this super-filled me up and ended up being breakfast and a late-morning snack. It'll definitely work for any hungry times!)

L- IP chicken soup with
1c celery/cauliflower steamed in .5 c chicken stock, seasoned with salt, garlic, pepper. All blended together in my Vitamix (boy! Am I glad I have that thing now)

D - big Mac in a bowl. Why wait? Everyone raves about it. Start with the Good stuff

S- banana pudding

I'm also drinking the heck out of the ginger water I made last nite. I posted the recipe in the recipe thread.

Phase 1
Week 12, Day 2
I'm now working out an hour a day so I take a 4th packet.

Breakfast: IP Wildberry Yogurt
Tea with 1/2 cup unsweetened soy milk (same amount of carbs that the 1 oz of skim milk has)

Lunch: Faux egg mcmuffin (IP crispy cereal turned into bread and then eaten with an egg inside) yum!

Snack: Pina Colada Popsicles (basically just poured the IP drink into the molds)

Dinner: Shrimp with cauliflower rice

Snack 2: IP vanilla pudding with cinnamon

Yeah! I love this thread for the ideas and it really does help to stay the course when you start out your day with a plan.

OMG pauli - I love your menu today - definitely taking notes for the future! (love the unsweetened soy milk sub, egg mcmuffin sub, and popsicles too!).

Breakfast--crispy cereal/wild berry yogurt pancakes, coffee
Lunch--potato purée turned into flatbread with 1oz ham,mustard, lettuce. It made a great "sandwich" and salad
Dinner--taco salad with sw puffs
Family bike ride--8 miles tonight
Snack--pudding

Phase 1, Week 35
Breakfast -- coffee, cookies and cream bar, 1 oz skim milk
Lunch -- vanilla RTD, 3 oz chicken breast, lettuce, 2 cups of veggies (bell peppers, onions, celery, cucumbers)
Snack -- cappuccino drink mix with double shot of espresso, a splash of Torani S/F hazelnut syrup, a dash of cinnamon
Dinner--5 oz grass-fed lean ground beef w/taco seasoning, lettuce, 2 cups of veggies (celery & cucumbers), 2 tsp olive garlic oil

I had some protein with my lunch because I went shopping and did a lot of walking. I needed something more substantial than salad! I may have a peach mango drink tonight. My coach has me add an extra low-carb, high protein packet a couple of times a week to stave off lean muscle mass loss.

Phase 1, week 2, day 2

B: 2 hard boiled egg whites, coffee, skim
B#2: IP Chocolate Drink
L: IP Tomato basil soup, leftover sauteed mushrooms, zucchini, bell peppers and summer squash

(I couldn't eat all my supper! I didn't have time to eat all my veggies through the day so thought I'd stockpile... Didn't work lol)

Snack:
Rest of dinner? And maybe a IP chocolate shake heated with Cinnimon!

Really cant stress enough how important it is to get all your food in...especially your packets! Eat your food! Never thought youd hear those words on a "diet" huh...

And it looks like you went over on veggies, 2 cups spinach at breakfast and 4 cups stirfry at dinner, we are supposed to have 4 cups total for the day and this adds up to 6 cups.

I know I never thought I'd hear that! Plus im supposed to eat 4 iP packs a day because apparantly my body is in 'starvation mode' and needs food. She called head office in Montreal because I only lost 5 pounds my first week where i should have (according to my weight and water) lost 10+. So 'head office' told her i had to up my packets for the next few weeks. But some days its hard and i cant always eat all that!!!

As far as veggies go the way my coach explained it to me was the four cups are manditory but the spinach, lettuce, field greens were free and meant to add bulk or satisfy hunger... My coach is great, but after reading some of the threads it seems as though the coaches aren't on the same page and have different information. I realize this is an ongoing research type diet but when it comes to the basics the info should be the same.

Thanks for the input! I appreciate it
