  • Kaveman is right. I did low carb for about 6 months and it works. However, you have to increase your protein and fats. If you want to know more you should research South Beach, Paleo and other diets. I strongly suggest you going to the doctor and getting a blood work up before you start. If you are looking to lose…
  • Hi, I'm Venessa. I am a mother of 4 children, three of whom I acquired by marriage. I love to relax and enjoy the finer things in life. I like being around positive and up beat people. I find it necessary to think about my life and reflect on it. I want to lose weight and fee comfortable in my skin and clothes. I have a…

It is very hard, for me, to drop pounds. I play tennis, walk dogs, watch my intake and the pounds find me. I get stressed and depressed but I still keep…
  • Because I have fatty liver, I do liver cleanses quite often. They are healthy but not something to do longer than 1 week. If you follow the liver cleanse diet or the yeast free diet, you will see the weight fall off. You don't need a special store or item to do the diet, just buy quality ingredients with no sugar. It is…
  • Glad you posted this because I was feeling the same. I work so hard and then find that I have gained weight. Everyone is right, it is pretty much water weight. You can't give up. You will feel worse and your health will feel it. Each day is a new day. Don't give up, I didn't.
