I just go to the UserCP at the top and get to my profile there. Hope that helps

NSV today.
Tough day at work, working with two of people who want to do the BARE MINIMUM. Thankfully most people I work with are great, but these two making it tough......
We had a team lunch today so I had to eat with everyone together in the cafeteria. Everyone got fries, chicken fingers, curly fries, onion rings, sandwhiches, burgers...... I ate a big salad with vinegar and oil, egg whites, veggies, and some tuna salad. And, I didn't eat or really even want the cake. I hate eating in a group anyway. I feel like when people see my obviously watching what I eat, they think I think I'm fat. Then, if they didn't already, they think I'm fat/weak/sloppy/unhappy. Guh.
BUT I didn't give in today! And actually writing that on this board helped with my motivations. So thanks everyone!

Hey are you a cop? I was a dispatcher (in a former life) and it's how I gained the last 30 LBS of weight lol.

You should be proud!

I can't wait until I can SQUEEZE into the next size down and not have it almost burst at the seams. I remember the day my "normal" go to jeans split down the inner thigh That was a low point for me.

Grats!!

Molly-Drive safe!

Woots you are getting there

Sometimes the weight watcher quote that I got helps, "One Minute, One Hour, One Day, One Week at a time"

Grats on fitting into smalls!!
Do you think cycling is helping with your hips? I'm a medium frame (technically) and have always had "fatty" hips, hoping this helps thin them down...my folks are dropping off my bicycle at my house this weekend and I'd LOVE to burn these babies off (currently walk 30 minutes every day on my lunch break, about 2 miles right now)

You'll have fun walking It's pretty low impact and gives you time to yourself

Hi Sylvia

Wow good job! 25 lbs in a month, that must feel AMAZING!!!! Super proud of you

Yes small town police chief here in VT. Where did you dispatch? Working an all nighter used to involve lots of fast food. Last night/this morning worked pretty well because of my survival stores of IP food in my desk drawer!

Hi all ;-)

I started the day with an IP disappointment (first one - eheh!) I tried the chocolate pudding and I just can't stand the taste. I tried adding more water and warming it and still, it just didn't want to go through...I guess I won't buy this one again. Do you often get the puddings, do you like it?

That is so good! You should be proud of yourself ;-)

CADU - I just saw your evolution photos...wow! Congratulations! Very inspiring ;-)

Hi! Today has been going good Hope you can all say the same.
I won't be home this afternoon/night so I'm taking a bar and a lemon pudding with me to make there.
Also I'm happy to say I'm doing better with my veggies. I'll eat 2 cups of cucumber with lemon happily. Also I realized that if I add garlic and pepper to my brocoli and mushrooms, it tastes so much better.

Cadu-
thanks for posting the pics. It is so inspiring to see your progress. You look beautiful!

I was like you, the chocolate pudding as pudding, eheh, but there are lots of things to do with the puddings. The most popular is make a shake (6 or 7 oz water, 4 or 5 ice cubes, I add some 0/0/0 flavoring and sometimes spinach to get in veggies).

Last night in the Wednesday Daily Chat someone else complained about the puddings and I added a few recipes for doing something with pudding.Here'sa link to that page, it's near the bottom

Hope that helps. The recipes help make the packets and the program more interesting.

Boy, I'm loving all the positive WIs today! iP really is a fantastic program.

My new braces aren't hurting me near as much today. I was actually able to eat non-IP protein last night (shredded chicken) so my coach may soon let me advance to Phase 2 finally. I found fresh rhubarb at my local grocery this morning. I've never cooked it before, so I'm off now to search the forum for rhubarb recipes and how-tos!

Here's wishing an OP day to all.

Good after noon everyone,

It's so awesome to see all the negative numbers at WIs today! I have my first WI tomorrow morning and I'm excited. I have been strict all week and I think I'll have something good to report also!

I did have a NSV of my own on Tuesday. I went out with some friends to our local Irish Pub for trivia quiz night like we do every week. I ate dinner before I left and took a pack of choc. soy puffs for my snack while there. I was able to sit and watch my friends eat, have my snack and water, and felt great about it! I wasn't even hungry to try to look at their food. Plus my snack was yummy!

Hopefully I'll have good news to report in the daily tomorrow after my WI. Have a great night everyone!

Hey everyone!
Congrats to each and every one who had WI's. Even a small loss means you are that much closer to your goal. IP does work!

My spinning class was fun! Difficult.. but fun! I think the more times I go the easier it will get. I am so glad I brought my Mango RTD just in case because after I got back to my desk I was a little light-headed.
I do have a question. I found that during all the "activity" I was doing during the spinning class I was a little gassy...
Is there anything I can take with my food so I can prevent this from happening? Probiotics? Enzymes?

Seeing everyone losing weight makes me want to do sit ups or something, catch the bug, so to speak I'm half way through week 3 (weigh in # 3 next Monday) and PRAYING I have a 2lb loss, which would allow me to say i'm in the "lower" 180s instead of the "mid 180s" which is where I've been for the past two years.

I dispatched for Metro Communications ~ Minnehaha County South Dakota (Sioux Falls and the surrounding area)...population...a whoppin' 170,000 including the small towns around us. Our work website was 911metro.org , and yes, lots and lots and LOTS of food delivery for us, since we didn't take lunch breaks and only ate at our desks except two 15 min breaks a day that we got. We knew the delivery people by name, it was that bad We dispatched Police, Animal Control, and Sheriff Office Deputies as well as Fire/EMS, so it was a lot of fun, but the stress and sedentary lifestyle really took its toll on my body.

I put a little Stevia in mine, put it in the fridge for about an hour and then it's yummy!
