Altoids Smalls from Trader Joes
I was reading Shelbyla's "Short Form" post....it says NO MINT....
in another of her posts...she wrote that Altoids Smalls from Trader Joes were ok.
So I guess my real question is about Altoids :-)
I'm a gum chewer and fresh breath is a priority ! :-)
My boyfriend and I are in our first week of homeopathic HCG...and dont want to blow it !

I eat them all the time with no ill effects!

Shadows_Mom · 08-10-2012, 10:06 AM

SWEEEEEEET ! Thank you. oh BTW....are you on drops? We are.

cynthm · 08-10-2012, 10:17 AM

Yes, I'm on drops....Easy HCG brand. I've lost almost 11 pounds in 11 days (despite a 4 day stall), but I really only count it as 8 pounds, since 3 were post-load pounds. And I've been eating those Altoid smalls every day!!

that's great news...I'm on day 5 of P2 VLCD and seem to have been stuck at the same weight for a couple of days...thus the over thinking about altoids.... glad to know that a loss like yours is around the corner.

Mint, camphor and tea tree are contraindicted for homeopathics. If you are going to use them, I would make sure you do it a good long time after you take the drops. Maybe an hour???

I don't eat mints because, after all, you are ingesting them. But sugar-free gum works.

Yes, I use the sugar-free Sweet Cinnamon gum. Yum!
