  • Hunger is a Side Effect of Weight-Loss Maintenance One of the things it does, of course, is to make the dieter hungry. And this goes beyond the ordinary pangs of eating less.

I'm not mad, I just need to get it out every once in a while. Human nature, or in my case, relieving stress to decrease heat attack chances. THAT is a good…
  • Well, what I wanted for this group is sources for us to check out for ourselves. But NOT to attack one another. Just Sources. If it is for you, comment on it.
