  • Well, the weight loss is probably just hype, but there are plenty of good things about it. It's loaded with electrolytes. To those that say it's expensive, and it is, I believe that you could take a 12oz can of coconut water and get something like 10 12oz bottles of gatorade worth of electrolytes. Doesn't seem as…
  • I was homeschooled. I went to college a month after I turned 16, and I didn't have any trouble keeping up or socializing. I now homeschool my 7yr old son. He is one of the most social kids you'll ever meet. In fact, we went for a walk through the neighborhood the other day, and you would have thought He was the Mayor.…
  • I have had a Vitamix for around 7 years now and I love it! I don't use mine daily because I don't keep it on the counter, but when I do, I use it heavily. I had a switch issue after about 5 years, called for repair and had it back in about a week. The customer service was fantastic, and shipped and repaired free of charge.…
  • I see improvement with digestive issues when I use it. I also had some issues due to changing diet. I take the Bragg ACV. I also notice improvement with other issues when taken regularly, but digestive issues can be improved with intermittent doses. The very best thing I have found for digestive issues though is Swedish…
  • Blackstrap molasses. 1 tbsp is 50cals, has 20 percent RDI of Iron, and loaded with other minerals. I mix it in to a glass of milk and my son thinks it's chocolate milk. I get a 32oz container for $2.50.
  • Interesting article. Thank You. It is an especially interesting read for me, because I have been finding that the more I exercise, the less I seem to lose. Now, I'm not saying exercise is bad, but the harder I try to use exercise to lose weight, the slower my losses. I find that the optimum level of exercise for me seems…
  • Had me laughing^^ I also do it in the morning, after all bodily evacuations possible, and while holding helium balloons. I'm making real progress, but I'm afraid the process of adding balloons every time has left me very little space in my house, and in possibly a dangerous situation if they all pop at the same time. It…
  • I was able to find some at stores. Specialty shoe stores, or even Famous Footwear if you have one around. However, I buy 90% of my shoes from ZAPPOS, I have a serious love affair with them that's been going on for almost 10 years. I bought New Balance from them for years, but they seemed to be getting even more expensive,…
  • I wear a 13 EEEE, so I'm quite experienced in this matter. It is true that the leather will stretch in a shoe that isn't quite wide enough, but most wider shoes don't really have a wider sole, just more leather so it doesn't have to stretch as much. I would go with the wider shoe if you can find it, as long as your foot…
  • Consider finding your maintenance calories at your goal weight, then just eat that amount. The weight won't fly off, but when you consider the ups and downs, slow and steady may win the race. Plus, build your rewards into your calories that you have. I try to eat healthy foods, but if I crave or want to try something, I…
