I received a packet yesterday from European 2 Laboratories Slim Ball. It claims to be a natural fiber ball that expands in your stomach to make you feel full so that you eat less. They compare it to gastric bypass surgery, without...

Dinolist Hi, I bought them and was really excited at first. They seemed to be working. I lost 5 pounds in 2 days, I didn't feel hungry (for the most part) and I felt a lot of energy. But, as with anything that seems too good to be true, it stopped there. I started...

My beagle is 3 years old, and she never goes on the floor during the day, but every single night she pees all over the floor. We have a tile floor, and I clean it up, so I wouldn't think odor is the reason she keeps going. We let...

Dinolist Thank you so much, emeraldisle! I picked up some odor remover. Walking her is a good idea, it's just difficult to do at night while trying to get my kids to bed. I really appreciate your advice! Say "hi" to Lassie for us! :-)

This is almost embarrassing. I am having a terrible time weaning my son---and he's 3 now! My first son was nursed until he was almost 2, but he was no trouble to wean. I did it slowly, cutting out feedings until he was down to one...

Dinolist Thank you, jnall! I am surprised by the number of people who feel so negatively about nursing. I don't understand it! I had a nurse once praise me and actually "bow down" to me because she admired me for breastfeeding my first-born until he was 2. There are a...

Dinolist Thank you so much, sminut! Your advice has made me feel much better and more positive about the whole situation. I'm going to look for some bittergourd juice!

Dinolist Thank you, Foxy, for your wonderful advice and support. I appreciate your sticking up for me, and I'm sorry you had to deal with the repercussions. Hope it rolled off your back. Anyway, I had no idea I was going to stir up so much trouble on myLot today! I was...

Dinolist Just checked out your profile...you're a guy! Why are you responding to a discussion started under "mothers"? Have you ever tried to wean a baby? I'd still like peace between us. Arguing is bad for your health. Literally, it releases toxins into your...

Dinolist Exactly. It's ridiculous. But telling me I don't deserve kids was a bit harsh, don't you think? He's not nursing because of hunger. He's doing it as an addiction. It's an emotional thing. I could completely stop, cold turkey, but that makes him feel like I'm...

Dinolist Wow! I'm surprised at your attack. Most people on myLot are nice. That was just plain mean. I'm an awesome mother to my kids. It's because I'm concened about their emotional health that I haven't been able to stop. You are assuming that I don't feed my kids?...

Dinolist Thank you! It's funny, the first time I put her in the crate, I had no problem. Thought the problem was solved. Then, the next night, I told my husband to put her in the crate before bed. I came out the next morning and she was out of the crate and had peed on...

Dinolist Thank you. Only problem is, she's not a puppy anymore. She normally tells us when she has to go out, except at night when we're asleep. I've gotten a lot of great suggestions here. Thank you to everyone who's trying to help me out. I really appreciate it....

Dinolist Thank you for your advice. I've thought about that, but I'm pretty sure you have to catch them in the act, otherwise they are confused as to why you are angry at them. My beagle is already 3 years old, and she's also already skiddish, so I don't want to add to...

Dinolist You know, I actually thought about a diaper! I'm going to try the odor eliminator and ask the vet if it could be a bladder problem. Thank you!
