Ro22 we seem to be on a pretty similar path to me, I am just a little ahead of you. Lots of what you are saying rings true for me - the reality of everyone telling me how good I look didn't really sink in for me until the last 2 weeks. I have gone off program exactly once in 4 months for a girls weekend and even then I didn't go nuts, hopped back on Monday morning and still lost that week!
I have some fear of the day I reach my goal (and it is going to happen soon) - anyone else obsess about P2-P4 and if they can keep it up??? I don't know how to articulate it but I worry that I can only do this because of the program and maybe I can't do it myself in everyday life? Not sure that makes sense but hope somebody knows what I am talking about!
IrishAnn - I know exactly what you mean. I am afraid of P2-P4, but I will take one day at a time. I know that I am never going to add those inches back so I'll figure it out and so will you. I have a user conference next week and went to try on my business suits, and I was swimming in them. I am down two more sizes to a size 8! I had never even been a size 10 as an adult so I am just amazed.
I am struggling recently though. I am starving! I am 5.5 months in and the last week I have felt fuzzy and have headaches throughout the day which sounds like week 1 symptoms that I never experienced. I don't know if my body is telling me it is time to transition or if something else is going on. I have incorporated a few alternative products, and I am wondering if maybe it is not the same quality protein as IP, and therefore, causing hunger. I haven't seen anyone else post anything along these lines, but I do know I don't feel right for the last week. I hope it goes away. I have already added a 4th packet.
