  • A friend of mine tried Nutrisystem after she had her baby. She had gained almost 60lbs and then went on Nutrisystem and lost about 30lbs. As soon as she stopped, she gained back all the weight plus more.

  • I have tried Hydroxy Cut and almost had a heart attack from it. You should not absolutely not take that or any other weight loss pills. Try Weight Watchers instead. But please please do not go for Hydroxy Cut. Ash

  • While zero calorie food is good, always check the carb content. When losing weight carb is your arch ememy. Most of these 0-cal food has a lot of carb and all carbs are from sugar. So I would say beaware of those

  • Ever heard of Swami Ramdev. He is one of the well known Indian yoga guru. I did all the "prayanams" that he shows in the video attached and it did help curb appetite and lose weight. "Kapalbhati" helps reduce stomach fat. See if it helps. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_Jnra2O9Fc&feature=relmfu Ash

  • I wanted to try that, but do not know where to buy Kefir grains from. THe store bought , ready to drink ones contain only 10 live good bacteria string, but the home made one can contain as many as 30. The carb content is a little high 12 gms per serving, so one must limit consumption to not more than 1 cup a day. Ash
