Goodmorning everyone.... I haven't had breakfast yet. I don't really look forward to it anymore. I think I might try the shakes....I wonder how many calories they have. I need to get in as many calories as possible.... I have trouble upping my calories but not my carbs.
As far as supplements go.... I don't take OoO or relacore. I take a multi-vitamin, calcium, and magnesium. I was taking a carb blocker but I don't think it was helping anything. I think I might try relacore.... a lot of people seem to have gotten great results from it. Where can I get it? GNC or health store, you think? Kathy, I'm glad the relacore and OoO are working for you....Congrats on the 3 inches! Well I better hit the treadmill.

Take care and keep up the good work!

Hi everyone!
My oldest is home with a stomach bug today so I haven't gotten in much exercise and I can really feel the difference. Lack of sleep probably isn't helping either.

I take a multi vitamin as well as chromium and flax seed oil. I was having an awful time during TOM but they are really helping with the pain and cravings. Chromium is supposed to be good for balancing blood sugar and flax seed oil helps with a number of things includung inflamation and constapation.

It's funny what you will share with your friends on the net.

Good Afternoon!
To answer your question you can get the relacore alot of places but the cheapest I found was at K-mart. There's is 29.99 and GNC was 49.99. I hope you try it because it really has been helping alot of people. I'll tell you the OOO is my God send!!! Well I have alot of work to do will check in again later.

Kathy

Hi! Can I be a buddy, too? I need a buddy...one with rope and duct tape to secure my hands and mouth so I don't eat!!! I have slowly started LC over the last month. I lost 1lb at Friday's weigh-in club and I ate a candy bar today. I am LCing by myself. My husband "doesn't gain weight". Yes...I hate him!!! Really, he is supportive. How about :
The Bodacious Buddy Bunch??? Becky

Gracejoy and everyone, Probably being sick kept you losing. Your body burns tons of calories trying to killing off bacteria/viruses to make you healthy again. For instance, everytime my body loses one fat cell it fights tooth and nail to put it back!!!!
