Hi moneygirl, curious as to why you use raspberry leaf.
Is that for NBE? I took this during my pregnancy.
I highly recommend Fenugreek, that's what I started out with and I had almost immediate growth
Second this. Started my NBE journey 12/9/10 and by Xmas time I gained and kept it. I wanted to follow tigerlily and fengshui's program as close as possible, and since they didn't use herbs, I dropped. I wished I kept at it though. Also, I was afraid of the weight gain that seems to accompany herb intake during NBE.
The red raspberry leaf is a good tonic.

I haven't really gained any weight but I have also been getting much more exercise than usual - things are tightening up so I'm assuming I'm gaining muscle. It's still early for me, hard to say what exactly is working.
