My Ideal Protein Experience Day 1

Hi Everyone! 
I have not forgotten about you!
It has taken me a little bit longer to get back on track then I thought! so today is day one! (01.15.2013) 
This morning I had what I call is the best breakfast ever! Waffles!
 The waffles contained 
1 pkg of Vanilla Pudding Mix
2 egg whites
1 tsp oil
1/2 tsp of baking powder
1/4 cup of water
toped with Walden Farms Maple Syrup
I also added some cinnamon for a little somethin somethin :)

^ Doesn't that look Awesome!^


Also this morning, Preston and I started Bouncing Babies class at the Health and Wellness Centre in Peterborough ON!
** because I am doing some exercise I will be having an extra protein on the days I am working out




In this class we did Steps! Let me just tell you, doing nothing for a year really made me lazy and out of shape! I can hardly walk through the door coming home! oh well at least Preston had a good time!


For Lunch I had a soy patty with mustard nothing fancy. I didn't take a photo of it because well.. it looked like my cats dried up cat food lol but it was very very good!

for snack I had my 2 cups of veggies just to hold me off for dinner, for dinner we went to Montana's they have really good quarter chicken meals but I decided to go with a cob salad


in a cob salad it contains egg, turkey, tomatos, beacon, mushroom, cheese, and green onion for the dressing it is usually ranch and they have to add the corn bread just to tease you right?
this is an image I pulled off the internet because I was so hungry I ate all of mine before I remembered I needed a Photo, so mine had no cheese, and no ranch dressing and my Dad ate my corn bread lol for dressing I used White Vinegar and Olive Oil :)

for snack I had my favourite pre-made mango drink!

 Foods can be placed in three broad categories - lipids (fats), carbohydrates (sugars) and proteins. If you want to lose fat, you must cut your fat intake and eliminate both simple and complex sugars.

My Ideal Protein Experience

My name is Vanessa for the next 3 months I will be blogging about my Ideal Protein experience let me tell you a little about my story.

In 2011 I started the protocol, I started at 160 lbs the next 2 months I was 10 lbs to my goal weight I weighted in at 129 lb

until... I was pregnant with my Ideal Baby! ( mind you my coach never told me to take extra precaution) she just told me to take my pills.

Gaining 30 lbs in the process with a huge belly my little blessing arrived. I lost 20 lbs from having him! Wow I know right! But of course my baby may be out but my cravings were still there so to make a long story short I regained the 20 lbs and at 21 years old I am back to where I started 1 year ago.

I will be sharing my experience, photos recipes and really anything for that matter! I hope my story and experience will in a way encourage you to succeed in your own IP diet and help keep you motivated with my recipes!

-V
P.s I will be doing the protocol with Ideal Diet & Wellness Centre out of Bowmanville Ontario!
