Has anyone that has been on BE for a length of time, ok well over like 2 months, not gained any weight? I've been doing this for about 4 months straight and gained probably 5-10 lbs (all in the hips may I add) Also, while I'm here, for those who are off of BE, was the weight easily dropped? Thanks!

I have been doing NBE since May, and I lost 1 lb throughout these months.

I can tell you that I've tried quite a few programs over the past few years, and unfortunately I've gained weight on every single one. Mostly around the belly. Yuck. If there is a silver bullet to fix this, PLEASE share :)

Organic Boobie Blessings to All

I have lost so much weight I feel so sad now. I got a feeling that is hindering my growth progress!
I haven't been eating much and I loss my appetite. I think I have a stress problem here!

moonkissed,would you mind sharing your stats,plz? (age,height,weight,type of body,asian/non asian...)

I have not gained weight and i have been on NBE since july. I have actually lost 3-4pounds and i am not a girl that lose weight that easy. I have sticked to herbs that dont make you gain weight. Fennel, nettle and hops. I am 25years 162cm and 53kg (was 55kg before) I have a small waist and big hips. (norwegian)

I'm twenty-one, 5'5", 116 lbs, Caucasian, with an ectomorphic body type, which explains why I lacked in the chest department. :D

i have been on herbs since end of august and i have started to put on weight last months. Never had such a problem, quite the opposite so i feel a bit alarmed now. So far the weightgain sort of looks cue maybe but it has to stop here since my breasts haven't grown at all only belly and hips. I can't tell how much on kilos or pouns since i don't have scales but a couple of kilos at least :(((

Have been thinking of switching to nettle and fennel as well as soon as i run out of sawpalmetto and genugreek.

I've been doing various herbs for 9 months now. Programme one was Mirifem (PM) which I did for 5 months and gained around 6 pounds in that time. It did fall off when I quit and started programme 2.

Prog 2 has consisted of WU plus lots of trial herbs. I took SP for a while and noticed my weight was slowly creeping so quit it.

Weight is back to normal now.........BUT.........I swear by the use of Vitamin E for keeping fat at bay. Have taken it for years and years.

Happy healthy growing!

Love

I didn't gain any weight whilst I was taking herbs and that was for two and a half years (including the time I was taking them just for maintenance).

I didn't loose or gain any weight in 7 months.

While I was on the SP I gained weight and since I have been off it I have lost quite a bit. I replaced it with Nettle and have been having trouble putting weight back on. I am nearly back to normal now but it has been a struggle, so the Nettle doesn't seem to cause weight gain. My dosages of Fenugreek have also been lower than before so that may all contribute to me not gaining much weight.
Hope this helps

I'm on Natureday (liquid only) and have been since 15th September and have gained no weight at all, and was surprised at how quickly I gained in the boob area too (literally 1/4 inch in a fortnight), until I saw Twinklepose and Henri's posts, and they have had similar results.

In addition, I take Agnus Castus, Borage Oil and Nettle Root, but nothing else.

I'm sorry, could you tell me again what kind of nettle to take instead of the SP? Nettle root? Thanks.

I gained weight about 5 lbs quickly while doing NBE. I think it is due to an increased appetite with water gain. I did loose it when I stopped. I lost most growth too but a little stayed. I am trying this all again and have gained 3 lbs in 2 months. This time I am going to try to excercise more and not eat whenever I am hungry.

*raises hand*

Even though I've been trying to I haven't really gained any weight! Hopefully haven't lost any either.

am doing nbe since June and think i grew from loose a to full a. however it's so confusing since i went brashopping last week and i only fit in a 32aa. but right now i'm wearing a 32b.

i lost 5 lbs since this spring. i was on a diet then and i think there was some overlap with nbe. dunno if i'm still growing now or else it must be very slow. am doing only massage, booby foods and hypnosis

hi jen, yes, its nettle root, try it at low dosages first, you shouldnt need much, it is quite potent.

This is my second month on NBEs and I have actually been losing weight. It fluctuates, but I've certainly lost and kept off at least 4 pounds.

I started my diet about the same time I started NBE - I've now lost 11lb! Yay!!!

well done twinks !!!! slow and stready thats the way and above all healthy love jellyDeee....

i started wonderup Nov. 6th and i've lost and kept off about 4 pounds. i haven't changed my diet much, it has never been that great...but i have noticed that i don't get really hungry and only eat because it seems like the right thing to do. =)

I have not yet gained any weight. I go back to the doctor next week and will weigh myself and see what it says. I don't necessarilly feel any fatter either except for the boobie area.

I've never considered fennel before, well I have heard of it, but always stuck with fenugreek because it worked, also the nettle root isn't something I've heard much about, you use it in place of saw palmetto? I may have to make some adjustments to my next herbal adventure...I guess BE may not have been the entire reason for the weight gain, I quit my job to be a full time student and I just moved out of my house and away to college...so maybe it's just the "freshmen 15"...but hopefully I can get the weight off eventually, but for now I don't want to risk losing what I've got...I'm going to head to the gym after I'm done with Elegence because I'll be taking a few months break...lol to get the weight off so I can gain it all back again :) Thanks for all of your imput!

OKAY ERICA,
This is too funny My ERICA just turned 18 in Oct. and also way to college! We were just messing with her this weeekend b-cuz she also has gained the freshmen 15 but along with that she also gained some boobage-She has always been my little skinny one with her little mosquito bites! So when my 15 yr old (who already sports 36D) noticed this was laughing and said she doesn't want to go to college cuz she doesn't need any more boobs! Thought I would just share this with you-Now I will really be following your progress-(HITS close to home)! Good luck in college and know you are dearly missed at home!!!

I wish I could say I haven't gained weight with NBE, but I have. I hope it comes off easily in the end.

I was on wonderup for ages and while i gained about an inch on my boobs i didnt gain any weight at all. That seemed to stall so I've switched to herbs now and ive found that when i take saw palmetto i gain weight (around the hips and tummy) my boobs grow too, so it's all over but i still dont like it. I stopped taking SP a while back and the weight gain disappeared but so did the boobs :-(

I feel that SP is definitely the culprit, for me anyway. A couple of people have mentioned nettle root so can I assume that this would be a good replacement for SP? Ive been taking SP/Fennel (fenugreek makes me smell!) for 3 weeks and already feel bloated all over, I really need to nip this in the bud now but dont want to lose the swollen boobs!!!

Merry xmas to all - hope santa brings us all new boobs!

;-)

i haven't gained any weight yet! at least i don't think i have, i don't have a scale at my house.

i really hope that i put some on though! just a little bit. but i gotta start eating better cause i've been lazy lately! not good for nbe either!

erica- when i first moved away for college i got the freshman 15...well actually it was more of the freshman 20! lol it was great! but all i did was eat pizza and drink beer! im pretty sure that's why!

yvonne

I did gain weight *but* I quit smoking and I've been eating like a lill' piggie since then. ;P

I've gained weight too! Don't know by how much cause I'm too afraid to step on scales but I no longer fit into my favourite pair of jeans. I'm taking prime culprits fenugreek and saw palmetto.

I've been taking Wonderup since 18 April. I have not gained any weight.

i didnt gain weight, but i still work out and have strict weight standards to meet, so that probably helped... plus the colonix... im on a bo routine, but i also take saw palmetto until i finish the bottles i have to switch to nettle root and i do drink my protein shakes... but it doesnt seem to be adding pounds.

violet, congrats on quitting smoking!!

soon I will run out of saw palmetto and I will then cap nettle root and take that so it will be interesting to see if that makes a difference to my weight love jellyDeee..

I am taking Wonderup and lost a few pounds at the beginning. Since then my weight has been stable.

I am thinking that I may need to gain weight in order to be successful with NBE. I am 5'2" tall, 19 years old and I weight about 106 pounds. I am a petite person so I am not sure what my weight should be. Maybe eating protein bars?? I have heard a lot that whey protein aids in NBE.

the hard part about gaining weight is making sure you dont gain it too fast or in the wrong ways (saturated fats, etc). protein shakes/bars are good NOT as a meal replacement... also healthy proteins from meats and cheeses are good, though with cheese watch your cholesterol.

also, i would suggest still hitting the gym or starting a pilates or yoga workout while you are doing weight gain stuff to control where the weight goes and to make sure you dont get too much, too fast... or just plain all around the middle!!

the holiday season usually helps people out who want to gain weight... ;)

for 5'2 you are in healthy weight, actually... but pretty close to the low end (according to the standards i am familiar with, anyway). closer to 110 might help you out a bit... even that four pounds might do the trick...

Thank you for the advice! I have actually been doing yoga, and I ride horses, so that is my exercise. I am thinking maybe one protein bar a day and a glass of soya milk.
Will keep you updated!
