Anyone try the Tory Burch bracelet for Flex?
Is it worth the $200? Is it really too small for most people, like the reviews say? Thanks in advance! J.

introduce Yourself
Hi everyone! Started on IP today! I've done this diet before, but was NOT careful going back on carbs and gained the weight back. There were some other reasons I gained it back (like a tonne of stress) but I definitely should have phased out of ketosis more gently. But I'm back and determined to do things right this time…

Starting Phase 3
Hi everyone! I'm starting Phase 3 today and I'm quite nervous about getting back to carbs. But I've been doing "little cheats" lately and have been weighlifting for a few weeks, so my coach says it's time to get out of ketosis. Had my first big breakfast today, and thought my belly was going to burst with all that food.…

Does running the same distance...

Loss of Lean Body Mass
Anyone else out there measuring their body fat% with a Bod Pod? I had some discouraging results - lost about 5 lbs of lean body mass in about 5 weeks of IP. Lost 8.7 lbs of body fat too, for a total of about 14 lbs in 5 weeks. I've been doing pilates about 4 times a week, so I thought that would be enough to maintain my…

I read somewhere that women can expect to lose 3 to 5 lbs per week and men 5 to 7 lbs per week. Just wanted to see how other people with similar starting height and weight, or similar starting BMI did. These…
