Its happened to me several times. I ate chicken broth when I started feeling that way and it helped. I also cut my BP medicine in half. I did inform both my Docs, and they agreed it was the correct thing to do.

Vanilla protein powder -whey-spinach, blueberries, ice, water, splash of half and half. Nutribullet RX. Voila. I don't know your plan, but I would stay away from all carbs for breakfast. So no toast, yogurt or oatmeal. And no high sugar fruit like bananas. Why spike your blood sugar in the am to put you in a fat-storing…

I've been on it for 2 months and have lost 27 pounds. Granted I'm at 331 right now. But its the lowest weight in 6 years for me. My Doc has had patients on it for 3 years continuous w no ill effects. Losses of 30-60 lbs is the norm. I started at .6 and increased the dosage up to 3.0 over a 2 week period. For those with…

Just lick each one first, then dip them in the sugar, then eat them. Easy peazy.

Incredible man! Keep on keepin' on.

How can you not have insurance??? Obamacare cured that!

....don't we all?

I think you may have more going on here than you imagine. It sounds like your husband has issues with his life...not just food. While you may food centric, and most of us on here look at life through food centric eyes, your husband may not. HE likely has other issues on his mind---like a baby. His life changing, perhaps,…

Wow! Congrats! That's a very sexy result!

Perhaps this will broaden your imagination. http://www.webmd.com/diet/apple-cider-vinegar?page=3

Is this real life?

Ohhhhhhhh!.....this is about clothes......

1. Are you stretching BEFORE your workout? 2. Are you drinking a lot of water? 3. If the above is yes, then I would back off either the amount of weight and/or the amount of reps.

Its really really simple people. Some people's bodies react to sugar differently than yours. Their cells are not as receptive or sensitive to insulin as yours are. That's it in a nutshell. So some people do not have to limit carbs in order to lose weight. Yay for them! Others can only loose weight by limiting carbs. Is…

If you want to cut out sugar, don't use fruit or diet sweet drinks to replace sugar. Add some chromium and zinc supplements--these will help reduce the cravings. After two solid days of no sweet tasting food whatsoever, you should start to experience fewer and fewer cravings. Drink lots of unflavored water. No dairy unless…

I look in the mirror......and if I really want to super-motivate myself I turn sideways and look in the mirror.

Don't listen to the people who say low carb is a fad. They can't wrap their mind around the fact that some people are more sensitive to carb intake than others. They think if everyone ate 1200 calories of sugar and that's all, then those people would lose weight. They can't seem to understand that one person's genetic…

Try the 4% small curd. If you add anything but a protein or veggie to it you are really defeating the purpose of eating it. Try it in an omelete. I've put tuna fish in it before and liked it too.

Multi vit, chromium, magnesium, D3, fish oil.

If some people have side effects and the majority of others do not, should we urge everybody not to take it? If that's the case, no drug would be on the market.

White w/ blue specks.

The proof, as they say, is in the pudding.

I started out at 405 lbs and at 57 BMI. You probably have metabolic syndrome as so many of us do. This means you won't lose the weight you need to unless you limit (probably severely) your carb intake for the rest of your life. I would recommend finding a true weight loss doctor-not just one who wants to cut you open and…

A few things struck me as I read your question. First, what is your current weight and how much do you want to lose? I'll echo the roar and request you open your diary......if its full of carbs and little protein, I won't be surprised. What was your glucose and A1C level? I wonder along with a few others why the Dr…

Same here.

I've been self-medicating with food all my life. My start weight was 405 lbs. Just think about getting that fat if you don't stop doing what you're doing.

You have to be more specific. ALL ice cream is NOT healthy for ALL people. Tell that to a diabetic or someone with insulin resistance and see how that turns out. IF you need to cut fat/calories, then light ice creams/frozen yogurts are better than full fat. IF you are sensitive to carbs for the aforementioned, Breyers Carb…

Yes. No.

For those who do not have metabolic syndrome, carbs are not like garlic to a vampire. But for those of us that do, under 100 grams of carbs a day may be too much. How do we do it? One day at a time....BUT planning and preparation. For a non OCD'er like me, that's pretty damn tough. Ifyou can do it for 30 days straight, but…
