I've decided to just do the MRC-6, because really I cannot afford everything they continue everything they say I should be taking. I'm going to the store tonight to stock myself up on vitamins and oils - for probably about half the price of MRC.

I just sort of worried that if I quit taking what they were telling me to from them I'd suddenly stop losing. Silly, but still was a worry.

I have been going to MRC since September. All I started on was the MRC-6 I have not stopped taking it and it seems to be working but then who knows? I'm very happy with the inches I've lost all over except for my belly. I have gotten measured three times and lost nothing in my waist line therefore I started Corti-trim 3 weeks ago. So far I don't feel any difference. I will go in next week and I am hoping for some inches lost. It will be the real answer for me if it works or it doesn't. As soon as I get the answer I will let you all know. One of the counselors in Columbus told me that Total Woman Oil is required. I went ahead an bought it thinking that I would void that contract if I didn't and found out it wasn't true. Needless to say I try to avoid her and if I do get her I don't buy anything!

The MSM, flax, multi vitamin I get from walmart.
In addition, I also take magnesium and vitamin d-3.
For those that are having constipation problems, you might want to try the magnesium. I was doing the fiber drinks, and miralax and benefiber.
I haven't taken any of that since starting the magnesium, and things are flowing soooooo much better now! Sorry for the TMI

Thank you Kathyb712 for posting about magnesium for ( ). I have struggled with "the problem" the entire program. I was maxed out on fiber and was using miralax a few time each week. After reading your post I searched out other info about magnesium and gave it a try....Yeah, no more disgusting knosyl fiber. Magnesium really works. If you look at the foods that one usually gets magnesium from.....MRC is very limited. Thank you again. I love this forum.

i can tell you that my initial meeting with my counsler was wonderful. she spent about an hour with me, and i got a lot of questions answered. after talking to her, i decided i am only going to buy the shakes from MRC to start...and continue buying my multi-vit and fish oil from walmart. i am going to see how i do, and if i have issues then i might re-visit the idea of trying something else.

good luck!! i am so glad i found this website...everybody on here is so supportive!

Hi! It is always great to find someone from NWA on the board. I am getting ready to start MRC over again. I was successful two years ago but a family crisis caused me to get off track and I gained it all back and then some. I am a little taller than you, but at your starting weight. I am 29 and married too. Great to meet you...Good luck and I hope we can support each other.

Can you all tell me what these things are? MRC6? EFA? MSM? Thanks, A

Due to health issues I can't take a thermogenic, the flax seed stuff and I only take one EFA at each meal-if I remember.

I have run out of the "clears" my lemonade, green tea cranberry which I think are HNS? I see you drink an alternative drink. Will you please tell me what it is? and other tips? Thanks, Adrienne

I am wondering about some of the abbreviations as well.. I have listed on my sheet some choices of Thermogenics as either ADWL which I know is the All Day weight Loss and then I have ENH but I cant remember whar this stands for.

I think I can budget the HNS's but cant afford the other supplements so trying to find alternatives.

I know I need a MV and Fish Oil as a must.

I know the MRC6 can be compared to the KLB5 (Lipo in a bottle) but can the Thermogenics be compared to anything (cheaper??)?

Thanks so much

lol..ok so ENH must mean enhancer (duh me..lol)

so now would like to know what you guys use as a substitute for the enhancer? i saw someone mention Revolution Thermogenic Push fron GNC and for the ADWL saw someone uses Total Woman Oil .
