Did anyone notice that it changed the over all look of your skin?  I had some indent scars that appear to be smoothing themselves over and I noticed this weird patter that was on my cheeks, I can't remember what the correct terminology is, but it just looked like several little tiny lines and it looks like that pattern is almost gone..

Did anyone else experience and over all better look of the skin not just the acne going away? 

 Yes, I did notice that my skin looked better overall (not just acne being gone). I always thought my skin looked like procelain after I completed my treatment. It was flawless!  

Yeah the powder stuff I posted the link for is all natural, it says on the website. All I know is it worked for me and I never got a bed bug bite again. I put it down EVERYWHERE in my bedroom and followed the directions that were online very carefully. I would try and be there when the exterminator is there, to see what they find and if they have evidence of the bugs being there.

Back in May, my husband and I woke up with small bug bites all over our bodies for a few days. I went to the Dr. and she said they were bed bug bites. I cleaned my entire house and washed everything. I had an exterminator come and they could not find a trace of them. I even woke up 2 hours before dawn in hopes of catching some in the act.  No luck. I did however use this product http://www.diatect.com/kill-bed-bugs.php and never got one more bite or even saw a bug. It is not that expensive but you need to stay committed to the routine. I understand the craziness you are going through!

I would go get a test just to be sure. I had a UTI before but never even knew it. I didn't realize that I had to pee more often than usual until it was too late. I had the worst lower back pains and ended up going to the ER and turns out my untreated UTI became a kidney infection. I had no other symptoms other than peeing more than usual. Get a test from the pharmacy, you do not want a kidney infection!

I too am disgusted by the veins in my legs! I have tried to research this and have found that it is mostly hereditary. I also have heard that crossing your legs when sitting increases the appearance of them. This is a hard habit to break! My mom has these veins, but much worse. I am scared that when I am her age they will get as bad as hers. I wish there was some other way to stop these things without surgery!

I too have those last 5-6 lbs. I find myself thinking it still won't be enough but I know I need to be more commited to toning my thighs and stomach. I'm in for weekly weigh-ins!

I too feel that I experience bloating and gas more than the regular person. I just started taking Digestive Advantage for IBS but not long enough to share any results. However, my brother has stomach issues similar to mine (IBS symptoms) and says it has worked wonders for him. So it is worth a try. You usually can buy a month supply at any grocery store or you can get a 3-month supply online and it is a better deal. Try it out first and then see if it would be best to buy it online.

I would love to join all of you! I am 23 years old and have been married a little over a year now. My hubby and I have been trying to eat healthier and maintain a healthy lifestyle. Aug. 30th is a great goal date for me because we are going on a cruise in September! I have about 8 lbs. to lose (on a good day!).
