Let me take you through what my food intake is for one week:

Dinner - IP Leek Soup plus 2 cups vegetables
DAY 2:
Breakfast - IP Capuccino Drink
Lunch - Pork plus 2 cups vegetables
Snack - IP Pink Lemonade Drink
Dinner - IP Chicken Soup plus 2 cups vegetables
DAY 3:

DAY 5:

DAY 6:

The regimen is simple but has to be followed on time -- 7 am: drink 1 glass warm water (to wake up the digestive system); 8 am: breakfast plus supplements; 12 nn: lunch; 3 pm: snack plus supplements; and 6 pm: dinner plus supplements. If dinner at 6 pm is not possible due to work, dinner should not go beyond 8 pm (to give time to digest food before going to sleep).
My first week went great and I lost 10 lbs easily. My succeeding weeks however were a little hectic with work and so I missed the appointed times for meals. I also missed a couple of snacks because I did weekend afternoon siesta to rest from a tiring work week and missed a dinner when I was stranded on my way home due to heavy rains and flood. My next losses averaged 4 lbs a week. Not bad, you might say but that's only half of the Ideal Protein Diet target of 7 lbs losses per week.
I am very happy with my progress because I know that even though I am losing weight rather fast, I am sure that I remain healthy and still eat well. For just being in the programme for 6 weeks (three weeks if one needs to lose only a few pounds), I have lost 30 lbs and inches from my body. I and the people around me now can see the changes -- I regained my jaw line, I now can see my neck, my wrist watches and bracelets need adjusting, I now wear clothes that are 4 sizes smaller and I can now wear my old clothes which I stopped using since 2010.
I will be going to phase 2 of the programme which is the weaning stage. Will share that once I know what I'll be doing to still lose some more weight while keeping off the weight I already lost.

Congrats on your journey! Will be trying this too :-)
How much did you buy this program? Did you buy it from ms. Dina herself? How many weeks did you use it before seeing the result on you?
Hi, Marianne. The IP Diet from Diana Stalder costs around Php 6,500 for a full week's program. Ideally, you can lose 21-30 lbs in 3 weeks but since I messed up a little (like missing meal times), it took me 6 weeks. Thanks for reading my blog. Hope this helps. :)
