Hi guys... Can you please tell me how long before eating do you take the AS pills?? I have noticed that I am varying the times (because i forget, oops) sometimes I take them about 20mins before eating (while i'm making the cereal or whatever) and then sometimes it's only about 5mins before because I have taken a bite of the sandwich, run upstairs and got the AS pill, drank it down with water, then finished eating because I really want the sandwich LOL
I often forget too but mostly I take it about 5 minutes before. I read that 5 mins was right but can't remember if it was on the website, the bottle or the forum. Its working for me this way.
i just seem to take it before meals or even with meals, it says on the website to take it with food, not sure where it said that but I did read it somewhere

Well I don't want to turn this into some sort of a competition but I've lost 300gm since last Friday.
I just took my first a/s for the day right b4 I ate. I've been busy all morning so I decided to skip breakfast. Buddy (my dog) and I are now having some yummy cheese and chive scones.

LOL i thought you baked them Belle...but thanks for that the next time i go to Coles i'll check...do you think they are for a cheat day or are they o.k to have??
o.k annsmith it's a deal...because you've reached your goal you try them out then tell me if they would be o.k to have or should i save them for a cheat day LOL
your lucky Belle...i'm with marga on this one...omg some days are terrible or then you get the young ones (check out chicks) that chat to each other about their weekends...like i care LOL get me out of here LOL...but i have nothing against them at all because i used to be one, it was my after school job...omg how ever many decades ago LOL seems like yesterday LOL
I've only been taking mine for 8days just before meals but must admit that with the hussle and bussle of cooking tea and getting kids sorted a couple of times I didn't remember until I started eating lol!!! I'm actually not sure if they really would suppress your appetite if you take them right before dinner as it would take time for you body to absorb them but I think if you have the recommended 250mls of water with them I read somewhere that in itself will subsequently cause you to eat less and fill up quicker???? I think about 10 15 mins would be best but that just a guess-i say as long as it working for you keep doing what your doing lol!!!!
I dont even have a coles in this one horse rainforest hell-we just have a woolies and only got that last year it doesn't even have its own bakery bwah ha!!!
I found when I ran out of my last order, that even though I hadn't taken any for a couple of weeks, my appetite was still not back to it's normal raging self, so I think you get a build up of the Acai in your system

@dinkidi: it is because acai helped you get used to eating not that much... so even without acai, your body can't take too much food. this is also one thing that i am very much grateful of acai, it helped me lose my appetite and still feel healthy
