I am a 48 year old woman, married with 3 older teenagers. I am now post-menopausal and over the last two years, seemed to develop this "tire" around my midsection, all clothes got tighter and slowly 30 lbs snuck onto my body! I tried everything I used to do to lose weight after childbirth, but nothing worked. Even took up running, but the "tire" remained. I saw my friend had great success with IP, so I thought I would give it a try. It's only been two weeks, and I have already lost 1/3 of my goal!.... 5.5 lbs week 1 and 4 lbs week 2.... I have followed the plan to the letter LOL. It has made me realize my previous food choices were lacking fresh vegetables and were high carb intake. IP has given me a new outlook on food and I'm enjoying being in the kitchen again. I am so thankful for this program..... it has really helped to have some direction regarding amounts and types of food to eat. I look forward to the next phases and have changed the way I feed myself and my family.
Update April 2015.... goal met of 30 lb lost and on to phase 3...
