Thread: P2 Questions

Yea, I microwaved cut up apple with lots of ceylon cinnamon for 2 minutes every day. Yum!
Because I was eating so much cinnamon, I ordered ceylon, regular cinnamon (cassia) supposedly has lots of toxins...

"A rough distinction can be made between two types of cinnamon. Ceylon cinnamon only contains low levels of coumarin which are safe from the Institute’s risk assessment perspective. By contrast, cassia cinnamon contains high levels of coumarin and large amounts of this cinnamon should not, therefore, be eaten"

same here enbmom - I took a multi vitamin, Vitamin C, Echinacea, Goldseal and a homeopathic cold remedy last night. Bad night. Today I'm taking sudafed with me to work.

I've heard good things about Mormon Tea. I haven't used it personally but a Mormon friend drinks it when she's coming down with a cold.

I'm having coffee and the hot liquid sure feels nice on my throat.

You're in a typical stall, that's why it's happening. I have 10 day stalls in every round. Your body is catching up and there's nothing much you can do about it, doggone it. Just hang in there. Your body is losing fat even as it's adding back some of the water you lost in your first week.

I can attest to this. Yesterday, I woke up having shown a gain. When I was showering, I noticed that the fat on my hips and thighs was much less firm to the touch than it ordinarily is, as if I were touching a bag of water instead of regular human fat. Also, the backs of my thighs were looking strangely rippled, much more so than the usual appearance of plump thighs. As the day progressed, I peed a lot, and by evening, the flesh on my hips and thighs was feeling firmer to the touch. Also, my thighs looked smoother.

This morning, I woke up to a full pound drop.

Hang in there.

You may have a sensitivity to shrimp. I'd avoid it for another week or so then try it one more time and if you get the same result, stay away from it.

The hunger is a problem though. You should be past that now. What brand are you using and how many drops?
