Hi V I started on the carb blockers but after three days, I have gained 2lbs which is not the result I wanted! However, there must have been a glitch or something, and I am starting it again. I think it was Charles who's wife was on them. Dee ***Hi Dee.. Do you mind if I ask what brand you took? Mine is "Natrol"...the package said the product was made of a white bean extract. What did yours say? I will keep track of the weight but not right away...I think it will take time to begin to release the fat...but I am keeping track of how I am feeling as I take the capsule. It is only the first day of course...but with the first capsule ..I noticed a difference. I took one before breakfast and then I had a decaf tea with a half tsp. raw honey..2 slices toast (oat bran..whole grain bread) and Light cream cheese with cucumbers. Crazy breakfast ,huh? But I wake up ravenous because I stop eating by 4 ish in the afternoon. First thing I noticed...I didn't get that sleepy feeling I get when I start the day with carbs.. Secondly..I didn't get hungry for hours!!! That was a plus I hadn't reckoned on. Also, I have been combining food and that usually really gives me problems..none. I just finished my Dinner...again a sandwich ( I will taper off of that soon..its just so nice to be able to eat a sandwich again)..Chicken I had poached last night and Asparagus I had steamed last night also. Steamed Cauliflower with some grated cheese on top as a side dish. For many people I know that would be considered a good meal..but it really is a lot of carbs and combining for me...now to see if I pushed it a little to far:( Won't take long...but so far I feel very comfortable. If this continues like it was today...I know that I will see progress...feeling excited. About the 2 lbs...I think the body fluctuates by a few pounds naturally...I am glad to hear you are going to try again. Let us know how it goes...V. ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
