Warm water and lemon wedges or juice helps too. That was Lee who suggested that one way back and my centre said the same thing. Actual flax seed is helpful too and extra fibrous foods. Good luck... that feels terrible!

I am having a rough week. I am on track with HM but I feel kinda yucky ... like my body is retaining fluids or something. I do not like that at all!!!!!!!!!!

Hum, maybe I'm wrong but warm water & lemon is for digestion & to "wash" out sodium and fat... They never said it was for bowels...well not to me anyways.

It is just you Chantal... Lol
There are lots of benefits to the water, lemon and warm water one of which is natural relief from constipation. It is known to stimulate the bowels. I love google...

I asked my 'girl' about the frozen food section and realized that they forgot to give one to me.... and then I forgot to bring it up again at the end of my last session. I don't plan on having them often because they told me that they're not worth the allowances you use up for them. It's a good way to grab some easy is desperate times. Does anybody have any fav's?

Nicole: See in 9 weeks, I ate ONE... I chose the Lean Cuisine Cheese Tortellini... And then, I questionned the center (I'm good at that!).

It says - 1 Veg...ok, there was NO veggie in there..like none.
Second, it's made with some tomato sauce... isn't that a Free Exchange?

Also, it's made with Ricotta cheese... which I was told it's a big no-no on program...

OK!! I'm all confused now...and the lady I was talking too was ALSO confused. She said "Well, these are like separate from the program."
WTH? I mean...

That's my perspective on the frozen stuff

Default Hello gang!!!

Dria what exciting news.... WOW you must feel awesome!!!! Are you adjusting to seeing yourself in the mirror yet??? Is your mind registering that you now are thin... or do you see yourself as big still??? Just curious because there alot of people who are thin and think they are fat... you know how the mind plays tricks on you!!!

Witchie... it was my center who told me about the warm water and lemon juice when I was a little stopped up and drink lots of water. Also there is benefibre crystals that are sugar free and taste free, and as far as I know sodium free you add it to anything, and it helps to drink water with it too. I add it to my water a couple times of day along with the lemon juice, and that did it for me, just another idea.

And as for me... I have made my goal of 209.8 by this Friday in fact I am now 209.0 !!! I honestly did not think that I would have made it !! and I lost 3 inches this week!!! for a total of 15 inches lost and 19.6 pounds gone!!!! YAHOO!!!! Now I work all weekend and they want me to be down to 208.8 for Monday's weigh in. Cross the fingers and toes!!!
