I have been following the Ideal Protein diet for about a month now and have lost 11.5 lbs so far ( hope to get down 25 lbs in total) I am very excitied to have found this recipe site because I have to admit I have gotten into a bit of a rut as far as my meals go lately. I hope that all these lovely (and hopefully tasty) recipes will help me get the rest of the way to my goal!

I was on the IP program last year and lost 26 lbs in 13 weeks! Since then, I did not follow any of the phase 4 rules and gained 15 lbs back, sooooo, I'm back on the program, for different reasons, with different goals, and a different attitude. Just looking for some cool recipes for phase 1 to make it a bit more exciting.....

I started Ideal Protein back in April 2012. I wanted/needed to lose about 15 pounds and just in time for my daughters high school graduation. I ended up losing 19 pounds in 8 weeks and loved the program. I am a very active person (curling, fastball, slopitch, golf) and I had a sports related injury in August 2013 which set me back for being as active as I wanted to be. This combined with a huge uprooting of my life (that same summer) with a move to a new city, searching for a new job, my second child leaving home after graduating & two destination weddings caused a lot of stress and bad eating habits. Also my age & hormones has definitely played a big factor in my weight gain so I knew I had to start 2015 off right and reset and get back on track. I started up again January 2015 and I have lost 14 pounds with 4 more to go! The program is working well and I have even referred a colleague on to it and she has lost 11.5 pounds in two weeks and is doing well on it too! I will aspire to watch my eating and alcohol consumption in the future as I know I feel so much better with this weight coming off and I will continue to keep it off!! :-)

I just want to be able to wear my wedding band again, to do that I need to get a good bit smaller. Imam the mother of 4 grown children and grand mother of 4 grand babies.

I have struggled with my weight since my mid twenties. I turned 50 and decided to get control of my weight. I have been on the Ideal Protein diet for a week and a half and I am really happy with it. I have not been hungry and feel really good.

Update since this post I have lost 65 pounds on Ideal Protein. I took the summer off and on back on to hopefully lose 35 more :-)

I just started the Ideal Protein diet and after 4 days I have lost 10 inches and 3 pounds. Iam very excited to continue my weight-loss. The food is very delicious! Very easy!! Iam learning all about all the high sugar content in food that is just astounding. Experiment with recipes. I really love making omelets with mushrooms and green peppers. Good-Luck to everyone!!!

Ideal Protein

Its been a hard struggle to take off weight and working from days to nights i found i wasn't eating healthy.

In 2014 I lost 45 lbs. on IP but this past year I gained 20 lbs. back! Totally my fault for not following maintenance protocol. New Year's resolution drop those 20 lbs. and keep them off!

I've been on the IP plan since Nov. 1, 2012 and have lost 10lbs and 9". Still trucking through those pounds and staying strong. Feel better than I have in a long time.

I am a 22 year old female. The reason why I Chose Ideal Protein was manly because I have tried every diet out there but would get scared to try the expensive programs. I heard about this wellness fair that was going on in my town and being an esthetician I decided to check it out. I was looking around and I saw the ideal protein stand and went by it and looking into it, they had a gift basket to enter to win worth $300 so like anyone I entered and went on my way with the mind set if i win i'll consider doing the program and to my surprise I WON! yay :) so been on my journey since March 17th 2014 and should be at my goal by mid November this year! and can't wait :)

Lowering blood pressure and cholesterol

The first few days were SO hard to control myself from eating everything in my house. After those first few days, though, it gets easier. And right now I'm actually really excited to try new healthy recipes and see the results of my hard work!

ive just began my journey with ideal protein

Ive been on ideal protein for 3 1/2 months and have had a lot of success. I'm excited to keep going but the food is getting old and I'm looking for new variations of recipes. I'm a teacher and have put my job first and my personal well being second for too many years. I've decided it is time for a change. I'm taking back my life and my body.

I've been over weight for 13 years been up and down different diets.. But this is the one that I saw a lot of weight loss..

While I was pregnant with my first child, I gained 50 pounds, finally topping out at 200. After I lost 40 pounds in a few weeks after he was born, I felt unstoppable. Then I plateaued at 160. I was a size 14 and felt disgusting. My MIL had been on the Ideal Protein program for a few months and the results were amazing. I decided to give it a try. What could I lose? I went on the program, and 12 weeks later, I was fitting into a size 3, and was 20 pounds lighter than I was before I had gotten pregnant. Now, I feel unstoppable!

Struggling to get back on IP program after late last year losing about 30 pounds, went on cruise and went off program and have been struggling to get off carbs ever since...EEEK!

I am a mother of two beautiful children and a wife to a supportive husband. I think it's time I started to take care of myself as I always put everyone first. I look forward to becoming healthier and need a great kick start to loosing weight.

Started IP October 2012; I was on and then off until I meet a person that was on the same diet and then it clicked in April 2013 since then I have lost 30 pounds. I am on my next adventure of the last 15 pounds. I feel great and it is easy to follow.

My son is on this diet. He has lost 19 pounds, 15 inches of fat and 2 inches off his waist in 2 1/2 weeks. I wanted to cook meals for him and he told me about this site.
