  • I'm not obese just a bit overweight and have tried the oil for the last week and I've cut down on junk food by 50%. I'm not very hungry anymore and when I do eat the food is good and healthy.

  • It seems to me that what he's talking about is changing your mind and your minds responses to hunger. By cutting out the appetizing snack (which does just that and gets you primed for more eating)you take in a flavorless substitute which calms your hunger impulses. So its a mind trip. But like the ancients say "fight poison with poison." We are on an oral trip and constantly stuffing our mouths. Thats a head trip. Fight head trip with head trip. AUM!

  • Or you can have a strong willpower

  • Quite interesting video clip... I've been applying DietOramy healthy eating plan (seen it on google) for plenty of time now and my personal improvements are already stunning - I already lost 6 percent of my total excess bodyweight within

  • @lazur1 Yeah, it would make more sense to put the sugar in capsules and swallow those instead, if you want to avoid tasting it. It's also not a good idea to take sugar if your metabolism is out of whack (which it probably is if you're very much overweight). I think the basic theory that taste has physiological effects on your metabolism is interesting and may have merit.

  • @J:Your skepticism makes you the perfect subject: 1/Weigh yourself. 2/Drink 4 tbsp (480 calories) of flaxseed oil, while holding your nose, as your -only- breakfast. (This is the updated choice for its additional health benefits). 3/Do it for a few days, paying -absolutely no attention- to how much you eat. 4/Weigh yourself again on the fourth day.

  • i'm up for trying it, but I don't understand the claim that sugar-water has no flavor.

  • I'll tell you how this diet works, Its a mother fucking PLACEBO!

  • I'll tell you how this works. Its a mother fucking PLACEBO!
