I posted somewhere else that I was a self-taught nutritionist well I lost thirty-five pounds by doing reasearch on many things. It isn't anything new, just very powerful combinations of eating right. Key ingredients include:

Noni,
Goji,
Pomegranate,
Green tea,
Figure eight fiber mix,
Protein bars as main source of calories,
Soy protein for heart health (kirkland signature organic vanilla soymilk for vitamins etcetera and seapoint farms dry roasted edamame soy beans as a snack)
Greens to go,
Red grapefruit,
and plenty of water if you can fit it in without constantly rushing to the bathroom from the other liquids mentioned.
If you want to save some time and money, the first four key ingredients can be found in a single product; Renew Complete Cleansing System. I only used it for the two day trial period but did lose a few extra pounds in that short amount of time.

Ingredients I don't use but recommend:
Alpha Lipoic Acid,
and GQ10 (200 mg)

Also I did VERY little excercise, who has time to execercise all the time anyway? I hope this helps some of you out because it sure made an impact on me. I have tried so many things before and Weight Watchers was the best but it was so hard for me to keep track of food points that I just gave up on it. I get most of these products in my local Costco but the Renew must be ordered form their website (don't remember it right now) and the figure eight must be ordered from gofigure8.com

The only hard part is creating your own diet plan, I don't recommend the overload on protein for women. I have found veggie meatballs and veggie burgers are great substitutes for women and theres always Subway. :wink:

I once lost weight by being careful what I ate. I only had three meals a day and didn't go for seconds and didn't have snacks. I also did softball that year and I was also in PE. I then gained a little again and then lost it when I worked on the treadmill. I did it to tone my muscles but I didn't do it to make my weight go down. Now I an at 135, I was at 136 this morning and then I was at 135 before my shower. My weight fluctuates.

Everyone's does. It's because of salty foods and water intake. Some peoples even fluctuate 5 or more pounds during the day.

I lost 50 lbs over a summer break once. This was accomplished by working Monday/Wednesday/Friday unloading trucks at Target from 4am-12:30pm, and running shows at a planetarium Monday-Saturday from 3:30pm-10pm. Somehow managed to do this even with eating about 3,000 calories a day of greasy mall food.

I lost 25 lbs with in week!! !............................................... I gave birth to my son, and lost all of the fluid retention. I was almost back to my prepregnancy weight, and my husband was still at the weight that we bothe gained up to. (I had cravings and he would eat the extra food also, so he gained weight too, but had a much more difficult time loosing it.)
