Analyzing ….
I put the scale away as I said I would last week. So – tomorrow is my weigh in, and I’m totally in the dark. I suspect I’ll have a minimal loss again – if I’m lucky. Why? Well, I wish I could be more positive and always be recounting my success stories, but I’m…

Back to Old Habits
Early on, Renee told me to put my scale away. That was tough to do because I had always weighed myself every morning. But I followed her instructions. I think it helped because you don’t obsess over every little up and down during the week. A few weeks ago, when I got back from vacation,…

Getting Used to the New Me
When I was losing quickly in the beginning, I found that other people (and even me) were really noticing the changes. You start to think things are pretty dang good – because you feel better, your clothes are falling off and people are commenting regularly. There is not much time to get used to the…

29 Weeks – Down 46 Pounds!
This really is a diet journey – with some good stops and some not so good stops along the way. I have been doing Ideal Protein for 29 weeks now and have lost 46 pounds. 46 lbs is a lot! And I’m very happy about the progress I have made. It may have taken me…

Back from Vacation
I’m back from vacation. Turns out that several of the people that I got together with on vacation were also watching their weight – many by watching carb intake. That really helped a lot. And restaurants seem to be getting very used to the idea of skipping the bread, or replacing the potato/pasta/rice with extra…

Reached My Vacation Goal!
In my last post, I mentioned that I had a pre-vacation goal weight. I met it this week! One week before I had hoped. The refocusing that I did in the week really paid off with a 4.4 lb weight loss. Yay! I really did watch every meal and I even passed up the restricted…

Reaching my goal before Vacation
I’ve got a vacation coming up and I wanted to be a specific weight by the start of the vacation. That weigh in will be on July 10. I’ve got 5 lbs to lose by then. Sounds easy, huh? That’s 2.5 weeks. For some of you, that might be easy. But as mentioned in my…

Time to ReGroup
I feel like I’ve been off of my game for a while, and as a result, my weight loss has slowed to a crawl if not stopped. I posted about this a while back too. I was able to regroup from that “incident” and make some good progress. It’s time for me to take stock,…

Crossed the Half Way Point!
I’ve now lost 37 lbs on Ideal Protein! It’s fantastic. I’m still chipping away at the weight, but I’ve crossed the half way point. However, when I look in the mirror or see my own body as I’m sitting in a chair, I feel like I look exactly the same. Do other people feel this…

New Premade Chocolate Pudding!
Have you tried the New Chocolate Pudding! This week I tried the new chocolate ready made pudding from Ideal Protein. I liked it. I’m generally not a big fan of pudding. It’s not something I would have eaten before Ideal Protein, but this was one was pretty good. Chocolatey, but not overly sweet. In…
