    I"m back in. Thanks Ruth for updating this each week! I'm curious to know if folks are losing a lb. a week with this? I didn't last week but I could tell by my watch and ring when I weighed in yesterday morning that I was really bloated. This morning, everything fit great and I was down 2 lbs. Whoo-hoo! HOpeful that stays through next weeks weigh-in.

    None at all? there is lots you can do to burn calories!! even doing something as simple as a vigorous cleaning...to something like jumping jacks! You don't have to go somewhere to burn cals. :)
