There's no such thing as being able to 'cleanse' or 'detox' your system/body. It's just marketing BS designed to get desperate and vulnerable people to part with their cash (whether for a book, DVD, supplements, etc.) Sorry to hear that. Pasta is really easy to make at home though, and there are many types of flour which…

Oh noez Aamb... I didn't mean it to sound as though I was doing the waggy finger thing! I'm genuinely sorry if my post came across that way. :( No, please don't MB9 - the sooner dodgy folk in the West stop taking advantage of the world's poor, the better. And the best way to get them to stop doing that, and start behaving…

But that's really the only way any of this stuff…

What is a reasonable 'serving size' for a woman of 5'0" who works at a desk (for example) is not going to be anywhere near adequate for a man of 6'0" who digs ditches (for example), so isn't it better to make our own judgement, according to our own needs, and simply fit it into our daily allowance, rather than be ruled by…

Yep - a change of habit/scene is good too. Play videogames - you can't eat and hold a controller (or use a keyboard and mouse)! :smiley: I agree about teeth cleaning too - I never want to eat once I've done my teeth (unless it's after I've done my teeth in the morning, of course)!

What about not having 'crap'(ha ha!) in the house? Or factor it into your daily allowance? Maybe have a snack box, where you keep treats and stuff - but only those that are within your limits? So for example, each morning, put together a Tupperware container (or similar), with the things you know you're likely to want to…

SpaceX tee shirt, Doctor Who lanyard, periodic table tie - you're my kind of geek! Oh yes, and the weightloss is pretty shiny too! :wink: Big, big congratulations :smiley:

Nope - your body doesn't care, and does not differentiate between 'natural' or refined sugars. As far as it's concerned, sugar is sugar is sugar. No it isn't. Not at all.
