New Supplement


So for years I have been taking some medicine that has made it very difficult to lose weight. Well recently the Elder's Quorum President came over to visit and he owns some nutrition/supplement stores (and has several degrees in that type of stuff so he knows what he's talking about). He mentioned a supplement that he thought I should try and when he talked about the 10 or so symptoms it could help resolve I elbowed Joe...because they were ALL me. Wow. I was impressed. So I nervously asked him how much it costs and he said $7.00 a month. Sold. Done and Done. So I went, got a bottle and stopped taking my pills. The pills are expensive and due to a gap in insurance I would be paying full price right now. So now is the perfect time to experiment. And so far it appears that the supplement has eliminated my sugar cravings (okay not eliminated, but reduced by at least 1/2). Since this is the major source behind much of my weight trouble I am delighted. It has also helped my mood (the other major source of my overeating/ eating improperly, I'm a total emotional eater). So there you go. The herb is called "Vitex" and you can buy it at Dave's health food / nutrition stores. He has one by RC Willey on 90th south and Redwood. Check it out. I'm in love.

Also, Felicity, I'm thinking it'd be good if we had a once a week workout time. I was thinking we could do walk/jog intervals on the parkway. You're probably busier than I am, but if you have time Thursdays would be a good evening for me.
