Guest guest Posted January 20, 2001 Report Share Posted January 20, 2001 , I didn't have a lot of fat to lose either. I saw results when I took my 4 week pictures - my love handles were already shrinking considerably. Sara Hello and a question Hello people. I'm from Argentina and I started on the BFL 2 weeks ago. Just FYI, the book was not translated here, it's still unknown. Today I'll be starting with a personal trainer to see what happens. He doesn't believe in BFL but I'm determined to show him the results. I wanted to ask you, when do you (on average) start seeing results as far as fat loss? I don't have that much to lose but I'm eager to know how much it took you guys on average. By for now, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 20, 2001 Report Share Posted January 20, 2001 , Welcome! Most people notice results within the first 4 weeks. Here's a link to some info on how much weight you can expect to lose. http://eas.com/q-a/answers.asp?QuestionID=9178 Cheryl C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 21, 2001 Report Share Posted January 21, 2001 Why would you want to work with a trainer who doesn't " believe in " the program you're doing? Sounds to me like you're creating an unnecessary obstacle. > Hello people. I'm from Argentina and I started on the BFL 2 weeks ago.

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2001 Report Share Posted July 24, 2001 hi jen, welcome and glad you are researching vaxing your kids!! i would recommend that you reconsider the IPV, as there have been no wild cases of polio in the US (I'm assuming you are in the us), in about 20 years...the ONLY cases of polio have come from the outdated OPV, which with that being replaced by IPV makes the chances of contracting polio near impossible. personally, neither of my kids will ever receive another vax for anything!! i am not really concerned with either the diptheria nor tetanus, so, personally, i would skip the DT too...your kids are better apt to handle any type of virus/illness that they encounter with an intact immune system, so i say leave 'em be and let their bodies do what they were designed to do!! ) just my opinion--good luck with your decision!! brigit, in albany, ny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2001 Report Share Posted July 24, 2001 Hi Jen, this is where you really need to know your diseases! Knowing the history of the diseases is imperative as well. I believe <A HREF= " http://www.whale.to/vaccines.html " >VaccineWebsite.com</A> will have some good disease articles for you. You might also check out <A HREF= " http://www.nccn.net/~wwithin/vaccine.htm " > Vaccination Information & Choice Network - Vaccine/Vaccination/Immunization Dangers</A> I was gonna vaccinate my daughter with Tetanus until I joined this group and Sheri Nakken showed me the light!

For tetanus to cause problems, #1 it must be there, #2 it must be an oxygen free environment in your body (deep puncture would or severe burn with layers and layers of dead tissue). Wound care - hydrogen peroxide and cleaning with soapy water does the trick and let it bleed. I also understand >that Diptheria is life treatening. Not necessarily.

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2001 Report Share Posted July 25, 2001 Hi there Jen, My name is welcome to the group! I am a newbie to this group found it to be very supportive and informative exactly what I needed because I have decided not to vax my 12 mo old son. During my research I came to the conclusion I would not vax at all. And I found that I had nothing but slack from everyone! Parents, friends, and doctors all opposing! So I thought well I am sticking to my decision I mean really it not like I wanna do wrong to my boy! I love the little guy he is my world! Anyway what I noticed was the people who opposed had no facts. None, they had no research on the pro's and con's. They are all blind I recommend you do the research get informed. I think you will see clearly all that is involved in the world of Mass inoculations! I found Neil Z s books very informative! He has done lots of research and so have the men and women on this site they have done tons of research take time and go to there links! We all have the same goals here we love are children and want to do what is best for them. So the only way we can truely not be blind to the worlds urban legends is to study beyond what is nesessary! One more thing that helped me was looking into all the things that could be done for you and your children if theyor you were to come down with any of the illnesses that we all fear so. Alternative medical etc that education has been very comforting to me. Wow enough said I am a babbler at times I think spending all day long with 1 year takes it toll!

Guest guest Posted July 26, 2001 Report Share Posted July 26, 2001 Antibodies don't necessarily mean immunity. The lack of antibodies doesn't necessarily mean you are NOT immune.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2002 Report Share Posted August 29, 2002 Hi Tina Welcome to the list. My name is Tracey and we have two daughters. Our oldest is 12 (thinks she is 15 LOL) and our youngest Skylar will be 10 in October. Sky was diagnosed autistic at the age of 3. She is also starting to show signs of puberty and it has me worried. Her older sister started her period at 10 and I am not sure either Skylar or I am ready for her to start. You will find this is a great place for advice and there are quite a few on this list who are dealing with or have already been through the puberty issues. They are always full of ideas, advice and support. I am sure you will be glad you joined.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 Hi, My name is Kate and I have an 8y.o. daughter who was diagnosed with PDD- NOS at age 3. Through many interventions (dietary, homeopathy, biomedical) she has come a long way, but still has sensory integration difficulties, hearing sensitivity and attention problems at school. Is anyone familiar with a therapist named Bonnie Brandes? She is offering a three hour consult where she will let me tape her doing the Masgutova Method with my daughter so that we can work than use it with her at home. She's charging $500 (alot of money, but haven't we all spent a lot with all the various things we've tried over the years?). I guess I'm wondering ir it's possible for Bonnie to provide us with enough information to do the Masgutova Method at home with one three hour consult, or if we'll need to find a therapist to work with us on a more regular basis. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Kate H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
