I eat a lemon after every evening meal, I read the citric acid aids digestion. I also drink herbal teas like green tea, fennel and peppermint.

    Try to only eat foods that man didn't make. :-)

    I drink peppermint tea after my meals to aid digestion :)
  • Well my biggest problem is that I'm a snacker. So whenever I feel peckish I drink a glass of water and wait 30 minutes to see if I really still want it. That usually quells any snacking, and if I still want it, then I figure out how much 100 calories would be. Lost 10 lbs so far!

    i love love love green tea..don't know if its helping me or anything but I genuinely feel better when I have it regularly and get really bloated when I don't!
    i drink water before every meal - 1 pint where possible but usually at least a glass
    and I'm trying to eat my own home made foods rather than shop bought meals - veg curry is my current top meal to make :D

    I eat some apple before meal time :) About 15 minutes before... it helps me!

    I eat natural, whole foods, nothing processed. And I avoid refined sugar as much as possible.
