Fiber?

[missxo143]

Hello,

I am trying to get all my things put together for our sway. I have read some woman have taken fiber, How much, When what brand would be recommended? Also the Olive leaf for DH, How much, When and what brand?


We will be trying in August and I have started Folic Acid, and Aspirin. I have also started skipping breakfast. I hqve an Ellipital but I know I will not be able to get on it for an hour 6-7 days a week, should I just not exercise?

I have read so much great information! Thank you for who has shared :)

Metamucil, Benefiber, or whatever brand of chitosan all work. I think some women on here have even used the fiber gummies. The fiber, taken right before eating a meal, absorbs fat and nutrients and helps the LE diet to be lowfat and low nutrient. Take what your tummy can handle. If you take too much in the beginning, you might get diarrhea. Start with a small dose before each meal and you can up it if you like. I ended up taking Metamucil before one meal and chitosan pills before another because chitosan was pricey and all that Metamucil alone made my stomach upset.

Can you do 5 days a week exercise, but no less? Exercise is getting such great success.

Thank you Lilithwiser1979,

I am going to try doing the cardio, its usually trying to get the time to do it, I have 3 boys, 1 is in school during the day and the other two a 3yr, and alnost 1yr who give me a hard time when i am not paying full attention. I usually can get in 30 mins without one of them crying for me lol, but I read it needs to be 45 to 60 mins for it to actually work. I am usually always moving around between cleaning my home and doimg normql day to do chores, does that count? The fiber I am going to get today :) I have some metamucil already so I am going to try that first and see how it works..

Thanks agqin for all thr help :)

just wondering how much olive leaf dh should take its in the liquid form and on my sway plan its about mg so im asuming its talking about the tab form,so im stuck lol xx

[atomic sagebrush]

Any brands are fine.

follow directions on the bottles, because I can't give specific doses since every kind is a bit different. You don't need the very high doses of fiber that are mentioned on the bottle, those are for people who need fiber for health issues like constipation or cholesterol

DH OLE should be started right away and carried on dailytill you get BFP, then gradually weaned off.

Fiber for you is with any meal containing fat or a lot of bright/dark veg (have vitamins A, D, E in them)

As long as you can get on it an hour even 4-5 days, that still seems to be getting good results. IF you can't get on more than 45 min. or 1-3 times a week, I'd leave it.

Many ladies' husbands would not take the liquid so I have the capsule form mentioned in the plans. But if he takes the liquid without complaint, great! (ti may be more effective than the dry, we're not sure). Just use the dose on the bottle of the extract, because liquid OLE is formulated many different ways and I cannot give a blanket recommendation for that.

Remember, you can always post questions to me in your Custom Forum (the same thread your sway plan is posted) and that way I can get back to you right awy!

Thank you Atomic :).. Good news I have been on it for 50 mins for the past 4 days :) , I will continue to try my hardest to get on it at least 5 days a week :)

I am going to try the fiber next week :)

I saw the OLE liquid at my local Mrs.Greens.. Hesitated to buy it because I wasn't sure of the dosage DH should do..I will go back next week and get it.. Does anyone know what it taste like? I didnt see any capsules for it.. I also couldnt find LR for DH, I have tried 6 different stores :/


Thanks again for the help :)

Atomic,

Would cleaning be considered cardio? I am a stay at home mom so I do all the cleaning and cooking for my family.

Is this one okay for the fiber?

[atomic sagebrush]

yes fine

[missxo143]

Ok good thank you Atomic

[atomic sagebrush]

no, cleaning (while good exercise) doesn't really count. It has to be actual exercise and then cleaning in addition is great.

I havent been able to do much cardio, since i stopped doing exercises to build muscle my lower back has been acting up again. I do walk but not as much as recommended.
