Best answer
I think all the restricted packets should have an R on them.

Restricted Items: Peanut Butter Bars Chocolate Mint Bars Chocolatey Coconut Bars Cranberry Pomegranate Bars Vanilla Peanut Bars Caramel Nut Bars Cookie Dough Swirl Bars Double Chocolate Brownies Southwest Cheese Curls Vegetable Chili Dill Zippers I might be missing a couple. but they should all have an “R” on the box and packet.

Some of those are only allowed 2 x a week. I know for sure the chocolate coconut one is that way

@clime4 the vegetable chili is still restricted. It has the R on it. Was told because of the beans.

@clime4 My Chili packets all say restricted

I just had the chili today and it still said restricted on my packet.? I’d say if there is an R on the packet then it’s restricted. There ARE some items that aren’t “technically” restricted, but i was told it would be best to not have with another restricted item (i. e. caramel chocolate mug cake)

WOW! I've been doing IP since September 3rd and had never noticed the 'R' on the boxes or packets - not sure my coach knows that either because she always puts a big 'R' on the boxes. Thanks so much for teaching me that!

@cassaundra1 hey no problem!

@cassaundra1 your coach should have explained this to you.

You are so right! Don't get me started on that subject. I feel like I'm on my own here except that I can buy the IP products through her.

@cassaundra1 so sorry your not getting the best experience of knowing more. Their website page has lots of details too. Good luck

I do feel kind of cheated but this FB support group helps a lot! Two weeks ago I purchased an IP scale from the clinic and I'm weighing from home and I talked my coach into delivering my IP food every two weeks - I really like this setup! Thanks to all of you wonderful supporters!

@cassaundra1 I think the “R” is kind of small. so a big R written on the box is perfect
