Good discussion to have with your coach, but it is protocol for those with diabetes or athletes. Basically, it’s adds an additional 3 food groups. You will pick an item from one of those food groups to add to your meal. Never repeating a food group during the day. Essentially, group one is grains, group two is a fatty protein (think yogurt or cheese) and group three is a natural carb like berries. Your day might look like a yogurt with your IP product at breakfast, some berries or a banana at lunch, and a piece of whole grain bread or some quinoa at dinner. You won’t be in ketosis and are adding in more calories so you won’t lose as fast, but if you are very active this could be an option to discuss with your coach

I used the alternative program when I was still breastfeeding. It allowed me to start losing weight, but didn’t harm my milk supply.
