Morning everyone! I have been on IP for a couple months and lost 22 lbs, but was developing a rash in my midsection - guessing from all the soy - and just super irritable. Plus the cost was becoming a burden. My husband wants to do the whole30 so I am starting that with him. Am I messing up my body by quitting abrubtly??

I just looked it up, and it looks like a great program. If you want to try and stick to the IP theme, I would consider counting your carbs so that you get the right amount of carbs-- I wouldn't go too low in the carbs. If I wanted to do this, I would consider adding a low carb fruit as a treat (simulating the restricted IP snack).
It looks a great, clean way to eat. I just really skimmed through it just now, but I hope they have a follow up program after the 30 days.
I also have to watch the amount of soy I eat. Eating clean is always a great idea!

IP is a low carb low calorie diet. By doing IP you have depleted your glycogen stores and also lost water weight which experts say could carry anywhere from 5-8 lbs. If you are going to a program that will kick you out of ketosis, then you'll put that weight on. The good news is that it is not fat, but you should be aware so that you are not alarmed.

Also, because it is so low calorie, you may need a transition period to gradually increase your calories.
