They have literally been life savers for me.

i do hear about set point a lot. before i became a vegetarian, and a runner, my weight was normal bmi, wise. its about 20 lbs less now, but i feel and am very healthy, and my diet is not as restrictive. its hard to understand why... i'm so glad to hear about your progress! it is encouraging! do you have a t as well? that always seems to be part of
the "recovery" package.
