What a great NSV! Thanks for your posts, BillOh! You inspire me as I'm just two weeks into my journey. Keep posting here so we can all be encouraged

Thanks, all, for the input. I have been trying different ones--ordered some samples online and made a trip or two to GNC. I am confident that I will find what works for me.
