What does that program have to offer? Does anyone have any good reviews on this program?

I have the program...
December 23 2006, 1:50 AM
I have had it for two months, but I only tried it for a month and quit because I felt like I needed to resolve some health issues before I continued on wasting my money. I believe this girl knows what she is talking about (Lucille-who wrote the book) because she tried almost every herbal product out their and nothing worked for her until she tried the individualized herbs (3 at a time at the most).
I plan on trying it again after I fix some health issues that prevented natural breast enhancement from working for me.
Basically she talkes about boobie biology, progesterone cream, doing a liver cleanse before getting started, and then the herbs that are best for breast enhancment, along with the chi massage, and how to ramp up your herbs slowly to get results, and if you don't get results, what other herbs to use.
Pretty much everything she covers that is important can be covered on this NBE board so I wouldn't buy it if I were you. You can get it free here!

Which herbs does she mostly recommend? Sometimes I wonder if I am taking WAYYYY to much stuff. It seems like I am popping pills all day long! I am curious about the idea of limiting the number of herbs taken, but I wouldn't know which ones to cut out!

She recommends starting off with only saw palmetto (540-600 mg. per capsule), fenugreek (600-620 mg. per capsule), and red clover blossoms ONLY (350-375 mg. per capsule). She recommends starting on the day your period starts and increase dosage of each of these herbs by one capsule per day until you notice results.
But do not go over these dosages: Saw Palmetto (4,860-5,400 mg per day), fenugreek (3,600-3,720 mg per day), and red clover blossoms (2,100-2,250 mg. per day)
She also recommends massaging with fenugreek and wild yam liquid every day, twice a day.
*Days 1,2 you should start off just taking red clover, 1 cap 3x a day
*Days 3,4 take fenugreek, 1 cap 3x day day
*Days 5 and beyond, add saw palmetto, 1 cap 3x a day
Continue taking one 1 capsule of each herb 3x a day for only 1 month and if you don't notice results then increase dosage (on month 2) by 1 capsule a day of each herb until you start getting results and then you stop increasing dosage. If you get results starting off with the low dosages, don't increase your capsules as you are already reacting to low doses and increasing anything when your already getting results will mess up your hormones.
After three months if you do not get results using this program that is when you tweak it and substitute for other herbs.

forgot to mention that you are adding the fenugreek while still taking red clover and then you add saw palmetto while still taking fenugreek and red clover. You are slowly adding each herb in.

Thanks for the info! I am really starting to wonder if I am taking too many herbs. I haven't had any real pains or tingles for a while, and I am taking a lot of stuff! I think I'll finish out this cycle and then maybe do a short cleanse and then start over with the recommendations above. Has anyone had any luck doing this? I wouldn't want to lose the growth I've gained!
Thanks and good luck growing to all!

A lot of what Lucille has to say is contentious. I've not seen or heard anything to suggest that those following her advice have a higher success rate than others. It's probably a good introduction for beginners, but for anyone who has been in this forum for some time I don't think it would be of much use.

The Flat 2 Fab program is pure crap to anyone who's been here for a while. It isn't "crap" in a way that it doesn't work, it's just crap because it will have nothing new to offer for you. We all know what Lucille knows. Take herbs (she says fenugreek, saw palmetto, and red clover) and massage (she says to do it with herbs).

The author of this book was a member of a NBE forum and she used the info that everyone contributed there. Everything that is in that book is in the sum of all of our heads. But this is research based mostly on experience and NBE develops, which is why I think that some points in that book are outdated. Just look at the recent discoveries we had arround here - vitex, nettle instead of SP. I've had a couple of my own discoveries that almost go aginst the old practice, not to mention all the new things that we've larnt recently. Personally I think this forum is probably a better source of information than the book (although I haven't read it).

I had a look at your program and I think that the problem is not with taking to many different herbs, but too high doses. You have to take into consideration that herbs with similar properties add up.

Thanks Moon, I think you are right. I am taking a short break from NBE herbs for a couple of days, and then I'll start a new program.
Actually, I might just take the progesterone type herbs for the next two weeks, since I am now in my luteal cycle. That would be just vitex and wild yam. I have to keep taking the vitex anyways, because it is doing wonders for my PMS.
I wonder if I should continue with saw palmetto too? I just really want to cut out the phytoestrogens for a short time and then start them again at much lower doses, ramping up until I (hopefully) feel tingles/pains.
Good luck to everyone!

Other girls on vitex have been reporting lately that it works the best if they take only minimal ammounts of herbs, didn't you hear?? Like 2 tablets of WU instead the recomended daily dose of 6. Vitex appears to be a really different herb from all others, it works best alone or in majority comapred to other herbs. Aaaah, I'm a bit jealous cause all of you with PMS have been given this new great very likely to work boob solution! :p I thoguht I'd try it, but I don't have any signs of low progesterone, oh well. Anyway, that would probably be the best for you to do, cut herbs waaaay down.

Questions for Katrina
January 2 2007, 8:39 AM
So I had been taking saw palmetto, fenugreek, fennel, and wild yam supplements everyday for about a month and a half and thought maybe I was seeing some changes, but had to quit because I went back to school (I'm a student) and kind of ran outta money. I was interested in trying the Flab to Fab program but of course couldnt afford it. Katrina, you say that the FTF says to take just Fenugreek, saw palmetto, and red clover right? And just increase the dosage slowly until you see results? What is the liver cleansing thing you were talking about? And how do you do that? And what's it good for? Thanks for taking any time to answer these questions!!

Yes, you can start off with these three herbs and increase your dosage until you get results. But notice that I give a maximum amount that you can take and you should not go over that amount! You can do a liver cleanse by using Milk Thistle (an herb you can get at GNC) for about two weeks. The liver is important from manufacturing hormones and digesting the foods we eat. If these herbs don't work then I would do a combination of some of the other herbs that are mentioned on this forum. Maybe go to the programs page and choose someone who you feel might relate to you more (as far as age, kids, schedule) and choose a program you could stick with. Good luck!
