Hi Ron: welcome to the group!

It is natural to drop pounds rapidly at first and this should not affect

your health. After the first 3 months or so of rapid weight loss (which

happens to most of us) you should however, slow down. Walford explains all

this in " Beyond the 120 Year Diet " which is really a " must read " if you

haven't already. It's available in most public libraries.

We all have differing opinions on the subject of supplements. A good multi

vitamin/mineral should be enough if you insecure that you're not getting all

the nutrients. Personally, I don't take any (except melatonin) but in the

beginning I was very confused about this issue and took several supplements.

As you get more into CRON and your health improves, you may not feel the

need to supplement.

Hi all,

I thought that it was important to obtain ON before CR. Is this not

true,

Cheers, Al.

Al: it sounds exactly what Ron was trying to do. Here's what he says

For some reason the last msg I sent came out scrambled on the board although

when I sent it, it was perfectly fine. I'm sending again and hoping it

arrives correctly this time. If not, is there anyone out there who knows

why it's going to the board all scrambled up?
