I'm terrible at forums, but I'm reallyliking this one, everyone seems really supportive, and I like that it's small. :happy:

I've got a tip for any of you that might be having carb/sugar cravings.

5-HTP, it's a chemical precusor to serotonin (the happy brain chemical) that carbs promote, so it helps me resist the sugar as I can get that happy feeling with out them.

here is the wiki link so you can check it out for yourself.

I only tend to take it on a PP day as it is quite expensive.
