Ok - I'm copying exactly what the label says:

Company Make - Flora
Name - Flax O Mega
"Flora's Flax-O-Mega is made with organic fresh-pressed flax seed oil. It contains no additives or artificial preservatives"
Each capsule contains: Flax Seed Oil (fresh pressed) 1000mg
Omega 3 (linolenic acid).....45-65%
Omega 6 (linoleic acid).....11-24%
Omega 9 (oleic acid).........11-24%
in a gelatin capsule containing carob.
Suggested use: Consume 1-3 capsules three times daily, preferably with meals. Store in a cool, dry place

I'm only taking 1 capsule 3x day. Is that enough or should I up it?

ok - good news....have stuck to the "redsquirrel" diet for 8 days - been VERY GOOD. i have written everything down. i am taking the flax omega and B12 pills as well as ECA.
8 days - lost 6 lbs (i think trip was right when it was mentioned mostly sodium/water/carb weight) and 1% BF. i have upped the workout pushing just a little further each time just to make me squirm......tough part will be the upcoming Canadian long weekend where there is tons of food and alcohol all around me....wish me luck....i will update soon.

Great news!! I'm glad to see it's working!!! A good portion of your loss has come from water loss, but still it's tremendous progress!!!

For the upcoming weekend, take your food with you. You can have a martini, or whatever, just don't overindulge. Make that night your cheat.

Keep up the good work!!!:cool:

congrats, it is always a nice emotionally high to get back their, and stop going backwards

logging while a pain in the arse most of time, really really makes a difference

Hear moosehead has no calories or carbs, lol
