  • I did the cleanse and it saved my gallbladder. I'm 3 years almost to the day when my doctor suggested I just have it taken out. I asked if it was necrotic, she said no so I left. You will expel alot of the oil, but who cares about logging the calories for it for a day or two. The rest of the cleanse you are eating…
  • Unfortunately, this product also tastes like a salt lick, so I rinsed it. Then I wondered if the sodium in my diet log would be off. I usually work outside a lot and sweat but not these past two weeks, so looking at that sodium intake a bit more.
  • Yes! Now that's what I was looking for! A method to reduce the nasty salt. It doesn't taste good and I know it's just TOO much. When I opened the package, there was a "salt slime" so I rinsed it, then got to thinking that maybe I just washed off 50 or 60% of the sodium (not really looking for a scientific answer, per say).…
  • No restrictions, but I know I'm getting too much.
  • My comment got cut off so here's a summary: Shop for groceries at a produce stand.

  • The first two weeks, I focused on just eating better and reading a LOT. Get used to MFP also. Push every button and search all the functions of the app so that when you really hunker down to lose the weight, you'll have every tool in the toolbox to do so. Everyone says "start small", but they don't really say what that…
  • Turning 40 is a crazy time for hormones! Try to get outside every day and get at least 20 minutes of fresh air and sunshine. Really helps with the anxiety and depression. Sometimes we need to "see" hope in action, so may I suggest that you plant some flower or vegetable seeds? The anticipation of using your own fresh cut…
  • Trying so hard to just eat right. I am very exhausted after riding out Hurricane Irma and I just want to sleep all the time. Gotta snap out of it so I can lose SOMETHING in these last 100 days! Didn't help that I had to throw out all of our food since the power was out a week :( Making my mind up RIGHT NOW to lose at least…
  • My husband had to get some tough love. He was bringing home lovely boxes of my favorite chocolates to show how he loves me. I told him over and over "Please stop bringing me treats. I know you love me". So the next time he brought me a beautiful box of Godiva, I made him watch as I opened the box and dumped them into the…
