Curious, what brand of Fiber gummies you use and where do you get yours?

They are the Vitafusion Fiber Well gummies, available at independent grocers, shoppers drug mart, Walmart and (I think) Costco. Because they are the ONLY source of fiber with this food plan, and because the volume of food at 800-900 cal/day is not enough to keep things moving, I am taking 10 per day to get 25 GMs of fibre. They are very gentle (not like MofM), although you might be a bit gassy for the first day or two of using it. The container does not show fiber or calorie content, but you can look it up online.

I bought some restoralax to try out, but can't find calories or fiber online, so would appreciate it if someone can post those numbers!

Edited to add: fiber gummies have SA, so don't take them all at once. I take a couple at a time before meals or snacks.

So glad you enjoyed the AMAW critter challenge. Its true the fullness was out of this world, glad you felt it too.  Glad you were smart and kept your fiber gummies, some others suffered and that's too bad.   So glad you had a loss on the scale, and yes I bet once the ham/salt is out of your system you will see more loss.  

I totally agree with you doing AMAW helped with the night hunger, enjoy your fruit, you worked hard for it!

I just bought size 6 jeans yesterday too! In my case I know I am not really a size 6...these just ran big...but still. Who would have thought this SMO woman could even consider picking up a pair of single digit pants!

Incredible accomplishment!

Grim, I bought a pair of new jeans back in January that have rips in them.  I wear them occasionally, but honestly the only reason I bought them is because all my other pants were way too big and they were on sale for $12 at Nordstrom Rack.
