Thanks Atherjen!

I actually used this during my comp. Was rather impressed myself. Remarkable results. I believe if you go into my comp journal...the first or second page I believe, Butterfly posted my comp pics..Front and Back. I went from 175 to 135lbs.

Glad you think so. I cannot wait to shed all this off. Sure it'll take a while.....but when it does.....I hope it turns out alright.

My comp is scheduled: May 22. Hopefully if everything goes well with surgery..I'll be able to hit the gym like I should and start my thermogenics.

I have endometriosis......Once it hits full throttle........I'm bed ridden for atleast 8 - 24 hours. When I get home, I take pain meds to get me through the evening.

This is why I'm having surgery. I'm sick and tired of having to put things off because of the pain. I vomit. pass-out. have heat flashes, etc....no fun!

I tried that...

I'm wondering though..............Would it still give the same effect if I squeeze them into a glass then hurry up and gulp it down?

ummm well I dont think that it would be quite as good. the membrane in the grapefruit is pectin, a source of fiber.. and supposedly great for cranking up your metabolism?!

Hey Babs Your pics are beautiful, I can't figure out why you were upset, well I do understand, alot of us feel that way sometimes, anyway, your beautiful..........is your new diet the one that Beverly gave you, I've done it b4 too, I liked it but got better results with lower carbs, did you actually go from 175 to 135 on this diet????? Our body types seem to be quite similar, how tall are you? What happened to the cabbage soup diet, no good huh? Sorry for all the questions, I've been away and you always have tons of info in your journal.............



Each of us conceals an abyss, though few of us are aware of its existence, and even fewer dare to explore its vastness.

Aww thanks Katie. Where have you been sugar? haven't seen you around much. Was worried.

This is a Beverly Diet however, I won't be taking their supps. Rather Supps by Syntrax, possibly VPX and Avant. Dunno.

Sure did. Went from 175 to 135. Lost a lot of LBM but I set the competition as a motivational tool and to gain experience. Didn't think I was going to place......Especially didn't think I'd take 3rd. I was VERY shocked....Felt bad for my trainers wife. She had been competing and training before my training days.

I loved the cabbage soup diet. I lost 8lbs that week. Mostly dehydrated and cleansed my system. Which is good to do every one and again. The diet lasts for 7 days......Two weeks later you do it again. It helps rid of all the toxins in your system.

Don't ever feel like you're asking too many questions. There's no such thing in my book sweetie. Ask away babe.

Hey Babs!!! I didn't know you have Endo. I have it too!! Mine is a level 4-- the worst I think--unless there are 5 levels now. I HATE IT.. Like you when it hits I'm bedridden after work, and pretty much when I'm at work I'm not moving around much.
When are you having surgery?? Which one you having??
I hate the pain-- I have been having horrible cramps for the past 2 months every day in the afternoon--- I hope I don't have to have surgery anytime soon. I have had it twice, this past one was in July.

Anyway- Just wanted you to know I'm here for you, I know what kind of pain your going through, and I'm sorry

Hey Stacey! Yep I've been diagnosed with it from the day puberty started . Don't know which level mine is at. When mine hits, I have 2 hours to get crap done at work and get the heck home in a hurry. I can't concentrate. Last time, I left work in tears! I'm a wreck the first day. I have no problems the rest of my days. Which, aren't long! Maybe 2 days.

Feb. 9th, I'm having a Laparascopy and a D&C. Yesterday my doctor told me he thinks I have major scarring from my Endo. He's not going to remove anything if he doesn't have to. Mostly, he wants to go in and take a look around and remove the scarring.

Which surgery did you have? Have you told your doctor you're still having pains? Right now I'm on Darvesets (however you spell it) and the strongest BCP that is made.

I'm sorry you have to go through this mess too. It's hard. My husband and I had to make a decision yesterday........"do we or do we NOT want to have anymore children?" Soooooooo hard.

Hey Babs-- wow we sound A LOT alike!!!!! I have so much pain sometimes and just cry also--and a lot of people don't understand why it hurts so bad.

I had a Laparscopy & A D&C also this past July-- It was really really bad the dr. said and that he was able to save my ovaries, luckily- I had my first Laparscopy 2 years ago- in september. The doc said next time he will definaltey need to use Stentches--not fun.

I have told them about the cramping--and they got me on a pain medicine for when it occurs--but lately its been every afternoon. And last night it was super bad. Sucks. I want to have the surgery (crazy huh--but I know it gets rid of the pain) but I want to wait until after my comp in May.

My doctor wanted me to have a baby right away after the last surgery in July--but hubby wasn't ready. He keeps telling me my chances are slim- but if I try now it will be better!!

Good Luck with your surgery- I will be thinking of you honey!! And Rest!!
