I haven't had any side affects, though I was almost always in one hot flash after another. That has gone away almost completely. They double my dose to 40 mg daily. At 20 I saw no change but at 40 I'm in the b-room every 15 - 20 mins for about 3 hours then it tapers off. Bur I do drink about 3-4 cups of coffee at work only…

Noki, You might start with instead of saying "i'll start on Monday" to I'm starting right now. One big motivator for me is to besure I log everything for the day, even if over, high on sodium, etc and by making it available to your friends you find motivation and constructive comments. For food ideas, one of the things…

That is enough for 2 hungry growing men and I take a little off of both for me. The boxes are approx 15 lbs. I do alot of shopping at Costco and check the markdown meat section first every time I go…

We eat alot of pork and chicken. I still prefer hamburger instead of turkey burgers, I just make sure it's 95-97%. This past month I have cut down on red meat and no complaints from family, now when we have it they think it's a real treat.

Anyway, I am down with a rotten migraine, yet again. So, since we have so many new members, I wonder if I could throw this out to you all; if anyone has any suggestions for migraines? Now, take into consideration that I have suffered with them since my teens (decades - ewww how awful to say that). I have been to a…

There are other anti anxiety medication out there, check with your Doctor. My mother was put on Paxil almost a year ago and she has gained 30 of the 80 lbs she lost when she had cancer.…
