  1. Thanks Anne. It sounds like an excellent option without putting family or friends out (like i usually do!) the price sound really reasonable too.
  2. Hi Maria, I raised the head of my bed about 3 inches yesterday, and that seemed to help, at least I felt semi human this morning. I hope like heck i'm getting better!
  3. Hi priscilla, I put it in my chili yesterday, and didnt even notice it in there. No diarhea yet, no other side effects that i know of. Thursdays are my weigh in day, so we'll see whats what then!
  4. Hi Anne, I'm curious about heritage house too. Is it somewhere that you can get cared for after surg? Is it for any kind of surgery? Like Oh....say....hmmm....cosmetic surg???
  5. Geez wheezy didnt know you were have back probs. they are awful. I hope they find out what it is and give you something for pain in the meantime. Ask for physio too, it really helps.
  6. Hi Yoda, glad your okay, but dr. m beats your doc in the charisma dept anyday! so there! *raspberry* i have a recumbent bike too, and i love it. a) the big comfy seat and doesnt hurt my bum knees. now if i actually used it...
  7. Hey Maria, Great NSV! One less pill to take, YAY!
  8. Thanks Cloe, I'm just being paranoid right? I needed to hear from someone else that i should give it a few more days before i freak out.
  9. Hi guys feeling better, but still not really up to par. I wonder if it is normal to still feel a bit of pain in my chest and back when i swallow liquid? How long does it take to get back to normal after being overfilled. DR. M said my stomach would be swollen, but he didnt say how long. I PRAY I'M NOT SLIPPED:sick PS priscilla and i are trying cla (tonalin)...anyone else?
  10. Hi skyeblu, are u a canuck? here we can get it at just about any health food/supplement place. if your american, probably gnc or other similar places.
  11. 5 lbs in 5 days?!?! YOU GO GIRL! I hope to see similar results. WOW!!!
  12. Hi ladypitboss, that's great to know!
  13. Hi pricilla, I opened one and its virtually tasteless. I put it in my tea. I could see an oil slick on top of the tea, but couldnt taste it at all! I think putting it on/in food will be a breeze! So here we go...you and I can be our own guinea pigs! I'm gonna take 5000mg (the amount used in the study) split over two meals to avoid diahhrea (sp?) as recommended. I will mark today on my personal record chart as starting cla and see where i am next week, and let u know.
  14. I'll try it tonight when i get home from work, I'll let u know tomorrow how it went. I'm on a waiting list at the library for "you;on a diet" can't wait to get my hands on it!
  15. Hi Pricilla, I bought some too, but the capsules are kinda big, and I;m afraid they may get stuck. Do you know if i opened the capsule and swallowed the contents...is that dangerous or really awful tasting? ps. the study they did on it at the university of guelph was pretty impressive, eh?
  16. Okay, i have a question. If those are the symptoms of a severe slip, what symptoms do you have is it is a "minor" slip?
  17. Oh bandiva i cannot stress enough! listen to what the doc recommends for u. you dont want to be travelling back for a defill, trust me on this. just went to walmart on my lunch hour to get some kids chewable tylenol cuz i still have a pain in my chest.
  18. You should ask cloe why the sheep are green, she's our sheep exper....wait a minute,YOURE cloe! oh maybe we could ask GREEN why the sheep are green!
  19. Hi Absteph! welcome I agree with cloe! so many newbies! it's wonderful!
  20. Oh wow, i'm glad you werent in as much distress as i was, cuz if i flet that bad away from home, i don't know how i would handle it!!! Look at your ticker!!! 176 you lucky girl you! Boy that guy was brave talking to a strange woman like that. he must have been a confirmed bachelor. it would be hilarious if you went pms all over him! yelling and crying and asking him if u looked fat!hehehe
