| Weight Loss | Hoodia Supplment, control food cravings | Mar 12 2008 20:58 (UTC) |

| Personally,
I like Hoodia, they seem to work very well at controlling appetite. But I did notice that I had an increase in acne at one point after taking them for a couple of months. I'm not sure if that was due to lack of enough water in my diet or the pills directly but I do remember seeing that someone else had problems with acne after taking Hoodia. Otherwise I used to also make fruit and yogurt shakes in the morning with a couple of tablets blended in. Worked great!! |

| OK folks, this is kind of gross but here it is.
If you flush the toilet the minute the bm hits the water, the water particles in the air keep the odor particles from floating upwards causing the bad smells. Believe it or not, you can also flush gas by not getting off the toilet after passing it and flushing the toilet immediatly after passing it. Of course you will be in the public stall flushing the toilet a lot, but at least the odor will not be there. You can also carry a small spray bottle of plain water with you and if you smell any odor just spray over the toilet and that will stop it in it's tracks without the obvious cover up with perfume, which is more disgusting. There is public bathroom etiquette by the way. |

| Once in awhile I'll have a 7 hour breakfast. I call it that because I'm so full I can't eat for 7 hours afterwards.
One serving of steel cut oatmeal w/ 2 tablespoons of flaxseed, 2 tablespoons of dried fruit(no raisins, they raise the glycemic making you want to eat again) 1 serving of a high protein drink made with soy. The combination of good, low glycemic carbs and high protein keep you going for hours. |

"It's not just the cheap consumer products, either. Half of the US debt is owned by foreign creditors, mostly China. All China has to do is decide call to cut its US dollar holdings, and the US could be in for a world of hurt. "Why do you think we are currently at war? Some of those countries that hold our interests are turning towards the Euro instead of the US dollar. If we don't delay that just a little while longer, the US is in more trouble than you or I could possibly think. |

| Has anyone forgot to mention the fact that most of those innocent children that are being murdered on the way out of the birth canal are girls?
China will, at some point in the future, face a shortage of available females for their males to marry. Most of the families under the"One child genocide" choose the boys due to some horribly outdated notion that boys are more valuable to the future of the family, even though females in China have the same opportunities for education that the males do. Unfortunately, due to our strong dependance on the cheap products we purchase from China, we support their current way of existing. There's really nothing we can do about it, unless Americans are willing to spend more money on products made in "America", China pretty much owns us!!! |

| Thank you nightC1 and scrltbgnia9 for the explanation on eating back calories. Basically you eat 1850, excersize off 600 for a total cal input of 1250.
The BMR I still have a hard time trusting that as needed for basic functioning. I know people who barely eat on a daily basis in order to be superthin, Their brain and heart function seem to be working just fine. But at any rate thanks for the answers. |

| I use Hoodia to control hunger at times. It really does work, but it is veeeerrrrryyyy short term.
I think the expectations are what cause the disappointment. It doesn't stop you from eating, but it slows you down enough to make better choices. I notice when I don't take it I make really bad decisions on food. Also, I have seen an increase in acne as stated earlier, but not sure if its connected to the Hoodia or not. |

| Fitness | caffeine and working out? | Feb 07 2007 04:13 (UTC) |

| That is a great question. I was taking down a Sobe with Taurine and it was GREAT!!. But last week I got very gung-ho and drank a Sobe and coffee espresso before a workout.
I hurt myself. During stretching I overstretched so badly its taken a couple of days to turn my head to the left. The pain that tells us when to stop stretching or over exercising was dulled with mega stimulants. Although those vitamin/stimulant drinks are faaaantttaasticcc for workouts, be very careful and don't over exert or over stretch. |

| We're coming out! Add another Christian to the group. This is great.
The hardest thing about the overeating, from a Christian perspective, breaking the first commandment "Thou shalt have no other gods before Me." Well, unfortunately if we didn't put food before God we wouldn't be here. Also knowing that your body is a temple for the Spirit. Its hard!!! Its really nice to see a community of Christian believers. If we could motivate each other that would be wonderful. |

| Are you kidding?
I was standing in the lunch line feeling thin (well thinner at least) and this guy behind me in a black and red pimpish jog suit had the nerve to tell the lady standing next to him "Yeah, but she's still fat!" OK, feeling fat and being told your fat? Believe me people will not spare your feelings. If no one said anything, you were just fine! |

| Weight Loss | What is the craziest diet you've ever tried? | Nov 28 2006 02:39 (UTC) |

| OK, back in the early 70's they had this diet candy out called Aydes Diet Candy, I was between 5 & 6 years old and my mother would give me a piece of candy with a hot drink like coffee or tea rather than just stop feeding me junk food. It was a chewy caramel with an odd twang in it. I would wait until she went outside, or out of the kitchen, sneak as much of these candies as I could grab and go hide and eat them. They tasted like Brach's Caramel. Aydes Candies(probably out of business due to the name) probably accounted for half my fat as a kid. | |||

| Hey,
Just read one of the articles in the library section of this website "How to Keep Your Metabolism from Shutting Down", they mentioned about cutting your calories by too much can make you cold and tired. Especially if your cutting your calories more than 500 per day. |
