wow - not sure if it's the tonaliin cla i've been taking for THREE DAYS but i have lost almost 3lbs - and anyone who knows me or follows my threads knows i never ever can lose weight no lmatter what i do. very strange but i'm going to keep taking them. in fact i've only taken two capsules a day not even the three recommended. now one possible and i repeat possible compications - last night at dinner i had a brief dizzy spell which was scary as i never have a dizzy spell - really not going to freak iunless it happens again but i did wonder if the cla had something to do with it. i did have two bloody mary's for lunch with Soup that afternoon which is quite rare for me too so maybe it was that combined with no food until a late dinner......anyway, go cautiously but i'm curiously optimistic about continuing this supplement.

So how is the CLA going? It's been a while since the lastest updates. I started on it this morning so we'll see. I read the bottle though and it said 1 capsule (1000mg) 3 times a day with meals... anyone else done this and seen results or is everyone else taking 5000-6000 a day?

I'm taking 3-4 1300mg capsules a day of CLA. I started taking the stuff 2 weeks ago and I'm now on my pre-op diet (started monday). I can't definitively say that the CLA is causing me to loose weight because of the diet. I can report that during our cruise last week I did not gain weight and that this week it seems to suppress the acute hunger somewhat. I still get hungry but I don't find myself slipping into "Predator" mode where I am ready to kill something and eat it raw on the spot.:biggrin1:

It may be purely a placebo effect, but hey!...if it works I'm going with it!

There are two major forms of CLA on the market Tonalin (Canadian I believe) and Clarinol (European). I can't tell the difference between the two although the Clarinol claims to be slightly higher in CLA concentration.

Just got back from being "banded". Whew! what a trip. Glad to be home. Catching up on the posts and glad to see that CLA is working for most people who have tried it. I have now lost 15 lbs. between CLA and Optifast - having started with the CLA. More news later, need a nap.:kiss

I don't know about down under but here in the states you can get it both over the counter and online. The important thing is make sure it is safflower derived "Tonalin" or "Clarinol". I believe "Tonalin" is the original process for making CLA from safflower oil and the most trusted. I use 1285 mg "Clarinol" (got from a drug/health store) and 1300 mg "Tonalin" (online) products. I'll check the brand names for you.

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.
