Quick, grab the Beano and follow me into the potty! Remember I mentioned some diet tips from the Black Book of Hollywood Diet Secrets? If not, find them here. The first one is adding fiber to your diet; veggies are fiber rich but most Americans don't get the recommended daily amount. So turn to Benefiber or similar clear-dissolving product to help you out. Add teaspoonfuls per directions to your drinks, soft foods, etc. to help keep you full longer so you don't start getting mad craving before your next meal and snack your way back to Fatland.
Well, I bought the one that Metamucil makes and have been adding it to my breakfast and lunch, not dinner since dinner is usually veggie rich anyway. Gosh darn, what marketing moron didn't think of Fart-a-mucil for the name, right? Because that's what it does...give you gas. Upside of it is you'll no longer be constipated, EVER, but make sure you drink plenty of water if you increase your fiber intake. It really works! My in-between-meal snacking has lessened considerably and it saves me lots of useless calories.
Not to mention, increased fiber helps you fight off cancer. Now who doesn't need that.

Hey girl, good job on losing another pound! Hey, have you ever tried Fiber One Cereal?
It looks like this http://www.fiberone.com/product/cereals.aspx
I usually mix 1/2 cup of this with my favorite cereal which is Cinnamon Toast Crunch. I also add 1/4 of this fiber-one in my favorite yogurt (Weight Watchers yogurt only have 70 calories). I like to have this yogurt and fiber-one mix as a snack as it only has 100 calories.
This way I get my daily fiber. Plus, Fiber One cereal doesn't give you any gas. However, one time I tried their "Fiber One Bar" http://www.iateapie.net/reviews/archives/2007/02/fiber_one_oats.php
Now this gave you tons of gas! I never bought it again.
I recommend McDonalds's Chocoloate Shake as a substitute product for fart-a-mucil! It really works in 3-4 hours!
