Supplements - Carb counts?
Today was the second week in a row that I've gone up .5 pound. I know it is not much, and I shouldn't worry overmuch. But I am an analyst by nature, so I am reviewing any changes I have made recently. The only thing that comes to mind after carefull thought is that a week and a half ago I started some new supplements. Please review them (and any added ingredients I've listed) and see if you see any problems:
