Hi Jeanne,

I'm no doctor, but MOM has magnesium. Too much or too little of this mineral can have some serious cardiac implications. This is Russian Roulette! Please reconsider this.

I don't have any great suggestions, but can share with you from my own experience that purging and/or laxatives are also not the answer to losing weight. I started binging 30 years ago, thinking it would help me lose weight. Instead I've lost energy,health, relationships and jobs. Not a good trade off.

Now I am trying to end all purging (with varied success), though binging is still a problem. And so...as cliche as it may sound, I take one step at a time.
