 I did find some salty chocolate and I think it's probably the next best thing to sex! Dark chocolate with bits of sea salt! Here's a recipe: "Makes 30 truffles Chocolate coupled with salt makes a tasty revelation. The rich, complex mineral flavor of pink salt crystals turns truffles into an even more sophisticated treat. Offer these chocolates as gifts this season. Ingredients 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream 12 ounces semisweet chocolate, cut into very small pieces, or 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips 6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces 1/4 cup pink salt or grey salt Method In a small saucepan, bring the cream to a simmer. Remove from heat and stir in the chocolate and butter. In a medium saucepan, bring an inch of water to a simmer. Set the small saucepan over the larger one over low heat. Stir mixture just until the chocolate has completely melted. Remove from heat. Pour the chocolate mixture into a shallow bowl. Cool, cover and refrigerate until firm, at least two hours. Line a plate with waxed paper. Dip a melon baller into a cup of warm water and quickly scrape across the surface of the truffle mixture to form a 1-inch ball. Repeat with the remaining truffle mixture. Sprinkle the truffles with salt. Separate layers of truffles with waxed paper. Cover and refrigerate." copied from:Chocolate Truffles with Pink Salt | WholeFoodsMarket.com OOPS! I totally forgot this was a weightloss thread!!

Hi Deepika, You can try HCG which I'm currently on. It is not scam if you go to a reputable website and I have been on it for 5 days and have dropped 8 pounds. Just google it and will you find tons of info. Also it looks like you're in the UK so maybe they might have an HCG clinic. First as others recommend try eating organic foods if you only have a few pounds to lose. If you cut down the carbs it can have a dramatic effect. Also workout if needed but you do not need to work out 7 days a week 2 hours a day. Moderate is fine. Hey even walking twenty minutes a day will get the cardio up. But if you have significant weight loss try a detox for about 3-10 days if you can handle to rev up a slugglish metabolism. I did the master cleanse and helped but you have to been on it for 10 days and it is liquid only. It takes willpower and mental ability to stay on. If you are a emotional eater your appetite has to be suppressed. Try some ACAI mixed in a smoothie or your favorite drink. I found this worked to shoot off the hunger pangs. For the ACAI get the organic freezed dried kind only in powder or pill form. Sambazon is a good brand to try and readily available on the internet. If this is not getting results HCG might be an option just make sure you go to a doctor to get a check up. Note for the HCG you can get the injectible (prescription only) or the oral spray. Many people have had success with the oral spray. I hope this helps. | |

HCG should NOT BE USED UNSUPERVISED!!! It can have serious side effects, such as mood/mental changes. PLEASE consult a health care professional to determine if it is right for you. HCG IM : Uses, Side Effects, Interactions, Pictures, Warnings & Dosing - WebMD

Good advice but you will be amazed at how many clinics offer it. I am being monitored and have had success so far. I have not noticed any significant side effects yet.

has anyone here tried green smoothies? Besides losing weight, they can really help you look and feel so much better! My family and I try to do at least one green smoothie a day. They sound gross right away because you are mixing fruits and vegetables and blending them into a smoothie, but they are very yummy! There is a website that can get you started, if you Google "the green smoothie challenge" is like a ten day starter, they email you a recipe each day. I haven't personally lost weight mostly because I make mine more heavy on the fruits so that my kids will eat them better (though I started this week making mine with less fruit), but I do know people who have lost weight on them!

here are some tips that I can contribute from my fitness experience..and I have been at it for years! Keep variety far as what you do...walking, elliptical, bicycle, etc...change it up...or else you will get burned out. As soon as you feel comfortable lifting weights...get started...light weights and buiding up as you feel you can. As you build more muscle..you will burn more calories!! this is really true. Consistency is key...set a goal..start out 3 days a wk...then build upto 5 days. You can walk one day and do elliptical the next....or do 15min. on treadmill, 15min. on elliptical...you can do ANY variation that you want....just do it! that is what is most important. Here are some foods that I eat on a daily basis...proteins, tuna, morningstar farms soy products-very good, eggs and salmon. Carbs..Kashi cereals, high fiber bread, Dream Farms low-carb pasta is excellent, fruits, rice, couscous, in moderation..all the veges you want. I eat alot of almonds and olive oil for fats. Low fat milk products in moderation...give yourself a treat on a daily basis...just keep it small...for example a small serving of lowfat icecream or you can even have a hostess hoho for 120cal. GOOD LUCK! you can do anything you want! YOU are in control of your body!  J.

Be bery bery careful with that stuff! Something I'm trying to get the last 5 winter pounds off for thong season (yeah right) is Coconut Oil. It seems to take the edge off the munchies so that I can eat more sensibly. (only 10 raisinettes instead of a whole bag...yay!) Emerald Laboratories, Coconut Oil, 120 Softgels - iHerb.com If you dislike taking pills you can eat the raw coconut oil from the jar with meals or cook with it.

How about calorie cycling? There isn't much science to back it up yet - but there is a LOT of anecdotal evidence indicating that it works. If your "maintenance" is 1800 calories, you eat 1500 for three days and 2,100 for three days. So it's not a starvation or drastic diet like some of the VLCD out there. I think it sounds interesting. The main question is whether you could fit it into your lifestyle, I suppose. | |

Its pretty much all been said, but just watch your diet and get 20 mins (at least) of aerobics a day. Important thing is to stick with it, and not give up after a week because you see no difference, you put on weight over time, to take it away takes time too. it just sucks that it requires effort too | |

fane, about the HCG! Please read the link fawnie posted. It says should NOT be used for weight loss. Girl next thing you know you will be swingin' a pair of testicles and sporting a beard-- and if that is the only side effect, you'll be lucky! I don't know what kind of clinic that is, but calling it a "clinic" doesn't make it safe. Are there doctors there? Be careful!   | |
