Ideal Protein

My husband and I are going to start Ideal Protein at the beginning of September. I wanted to try a restrictive diet--one where I don't need to even really think about what I'm going to eat. I'd like to see how it works and then if it doesn't work out I will start saving for bariatric surgery.

Our initial consultation will be Friday, August 30. We probably won't begin the diet until the following week. That way I'll have the weekend to plan meals and do my shopping. I'm feeling very determined. I'm not worried about feeling hungry but I am worried about emotional eating and eating out of boredom. I will need to work on my coping skills and alternatives to eating.
