[YEA]  07/05/2007: Trisha from Chase, Mi writes: "I have been struggling with my weight for a long time. I became hypothyroid after the birth of my second son. My weight skyrocketed up to 260 on my 5ft 10 inch frame. I was getting joint pain, back pain, no energy, irritable bowels, depression..so I began eating more whole grains,vegetables, took multivitamins, ate natural yogurt each day, exercised every day..nothing worked. then I read this book written by a doctor from vermont in like 1958 about apple cider vinegar. Sounded weird but I have tried weirder stuff so I began drinking a teaspoon of it in a glass of water with a teaspoon of honey. That was one month ago. My weight is 239. thats 20 pounds in a month. oh, I am 38 years old."


05/30/2008: Jo Ann B from Lake City, FL replies: "Please email me and tell me more about ACV. I have fibromyalgia, no thyroid, it was removed and I am tired all the time and I have put on soo much weight in the last three years or so."

[YEA]  06/24/2007: Carolynne from Cordova, Tennessee writes: "I have been drinking apple cider vinegar for about six years. What I noticed right away was I don't have any of joint stiffness and pain. When I stop using it for more than 4 days, the pain returns to my back and neck. I also noticed that my weight is always perfect for my height 5'6", 127 pounds, 54 years old. The vinegar removes the excess salt from your body when you sleep, so no bags under the eyes when you wake up in the morning. I drink two tablespoons of acv with 16 ounces of water, two hours before bed, it removes toxins in your body while sleeping, so no swelling in the joints, no bags under the eyes from excess salt. It is a natural weight loss, as well as rotor-rooters the arteries, so good for your heart. also keeps your body from getting sick. I love it! Carolynne"

[YEA]  05/23/2007: Ed from Riverside, CA writes: "I learned about the Apple Cider Vinegar for weight loss from a parent of one of the girls I coached in soccer. I used it twice a day, in the morning (2 table spoons in apple cider) and 2 tablespoons again before I go to sleep. I ate sensibly and exercised two days a week. I lost about 60 pounds in 4 months. Recently I went back to it when I felt my weight was getting back up to an unacceptable level. Using the same plan I have lost 25 pounds in 3 weeks. I find that using about 4 ounces of apple cider does a good job of making the taste of the ACV. It's working for me, you may want to try it"

[YEA]  05/02/2007: Darian (dcaplinger@sbcglobal.net) from Springfield, MO writes: "This is update #1. I've been taking ______ ACV religiously 3 times daily (1/8 - 1/4 cup). Since I've started taking the vinegar, I've noticed a lot of other benefits besides helping to heal my sinus problem. My energy level has greatly increased. This has allowed me to start exercising more. I started walking about an hour a day (at least 3 days a week) for a few weeks, and now I'm even jogging on occasion. So far in the past 2 weeks, I've lost a few pounds, which of course is related to the exercise, but I still maintain it wouldn't be possible without the ACV and the energy I've gotten from not being sick all the time. God bless this site and for the information you provide. I'll give another update in a month or so. As I like to say as a toast when I take the ACV... Here's to your health"

[MAYBE]  04/27/2007: Misty from Harrisonville, Missouri writes: "I like the A.C.V. it does work great external and can help you lose weight, but I don't think it is the miracle cure for weight loss. I still have to eat healthier and get active or the weight will remain the same or I will gain. Pretty much everything I have tried so far on this site I have had great results with. Be healthy and God Bless."


07/22/2008: Maribel from Chicago, IL replies: "what brand of apple cider vinegar are you using, and how much? I just started using the Heinz brand I take 2 tsps once a day i use it to loose weight been using eat for 4 days now. Am I taking the right amount?"


10/01/2008: Teresa from Frisco, TX, USA replies: "You need to use an organic, raw brand of ACV, or it will not work as well. I use 2 Teaspoons, in about 8oz of water two times a day (some use it three times a day). I've been doing it for 2 months now and feel so great! Have also lost most of the baby weight and will soon be at the size I was pre-kids! Awesome, awesome stuff!"

[YEA]  04/23/2007: Britney from Albany, NY writes: "26 Days ago I decided to try and get my weight down for my vacation, now in 11 days. At first, I told myself 37 days, I can just go running everyday, do my stairmaster and eat well, I should be able to be back to my normal weight of 115 or less, in the 37 days. At the time I was about 126, and I originally gained up to the 137 mark! SO I really wanted to lose that last 10-11 pounds before my vacay. I was on a roll with my exercises, then I got sick, and stopped and 1 day turned to 2 turned to 3. So then I went online looking for motivation, tips, etc. I found the Apple Cider Vinegar diet on Earthclinic. I was amazed and so motivated by the feedback I read, so I figured, what could it hurt? Well I have been on it for about 2 weeks, I weighed in this morning at 116. I have NO idea how this is happening, I eat what I like on the weekends, and a light lunch during the week and what I want for dinner. I changed none of my eatting habits from when I had the weight, and yet, I am weighing in at 116. I am so happy, I have told my co-workers, Gramma, friends, about this diet, I feel it really works. I was so discouraged before, I haven't felt good about my body in over a year. Thank you for your website!"


05/13/2008: Haley (h_a_m333@hotmail.com) from Las Vegas, Nevada replies: "Can you please tell me how much you take and how many times a day? Your story seems very similar to mine. Thanks!"

Well recently since i weighed myself and found myself at 217 pounds I about died, already after one week im down to 204 pounds. It works for me!"

[YEA]  03/18/2007: Nicole from Irvine, CA writes: "Hey! I've been taking ACV for about 10 days with meals...twice a day. The best way I found to take it without tasting the actual vinegar is to put it in a glass of water with an AIRBORNE tablet. Airborne is great for keeping colds away and giving you energy...so I suggest taking it this way because you won't actually taste the vinegar and it actually tastes really good. I take the "lemon-lime" AIRBORNE (invented by a school teacher--fizzy drink) tablet...with a glass of water...and i use the measuring cup for cough syrup to measure the vinegar... my recipe: 1 Lemon-line Airborne tablet 1 glass of water at room temp 2 table spoons ACV

Drink it before meals twice a day...

I always brush my teeth right after too, the acidity is so high in the vinegar that my teeth started to get sensitive because the vinegar wears on the enamel. Anyway, I started out as being 108lbs...I just wanted to lose about 5 or 6lbs before going on vacay (to a beach city). That might seem like a lot of weight to lose but I am only about 5ft tall and very petite. Anyway, this stuff really works if you stick to it. I didn't lose weight gradually. I dropped about 4lbs in 5 days on the 5th day. For the skeptics out there, TRY IT! It also works great for sore throats...It helped me!"


[WARNING!]05/08/2008: AcvBeliever from North Highlands, California replies: "Please don't brush your teeth right after having vinegar. It grinds the vinegar into your tooth enamel and causes it to wear down. Do rinse your mouth with water. Once vinegar in neutralized it should be safe to brush your teeth."

[NAY]  02/24/2007: Paula (nancyreagan2002@yahoo.com) from Durham, NC writes: "I have stuck with the various recipes over the past three weeks. I even walk 3-4 miles a day, 4 times a week! Well, whoa and behold I have gained 6 pounds! I am so sad and heart broken!. I must admit the apple cider vinegar has made me feel so energetic and full of energy. Unfortunately,I must admit that mentally, I'd rather be thin and depressed then fat and happy. Best wishes to you all. Apple cider vinegar has its advantages...suppose it just wasn't meant for me!"


05/12/2008: Mark from Toronto, Canada replies: "Don't forget that muscle weighs more than fat. You are probably losing fat and gaining muscle. This will balance itself off and after you reach your activity muscle tone then you will lose more weight. Keep it up!"


05/27/2008: Peijay from Long Beach, California replies: "Yes, I agree with Mark. I was going to say the same thing, that when you are working out you will lose body fat and gain muscle tone. Just keep in mind that if you are lifting weights, to modify your reps (repititions) and always stretch before and after each session, to even out the toning of your muscles. Stretching and light weightlifting, small weights, will stretch out your muscles and assist in lean muscle - body mass.
I hope this helps."


08/06/2008: Jeff from Burlington, Vermont replies: "hey, i am guessing that your body was building muscle and that is why you were gaining weight."

But I don't do it faithfully. My question is this ??? there's a few recipes here, what's the best most effective one? Is it best to make a large amount, like a quart and 1 cup of acv and drink throughout the day or to take 1/2 acv in 1/2 cup, and is honey necessary or just for taste? PLEASE HELP ME HERE. I WANT TO TRY IT FAITHFULLY AND SEE RESULTS LIKE YOU ALL DID.. WHAT SHOULD I DO, WANT TO LOSE THE 20 LBS I GAINED,,,, AS FAST AS POSSIBE. THANKS"

[YEA]  02/14/2007: Celeste from New York writes: "Hi, I have been drinking the apple cider vinegar concoction 3-4 times a day (about 2 tbsp ACV, 1 tbsp honey, 1/2 cup water, and occasionally molasses and cinnamon if its handy), and not consciously trying to diet (or exercise) in any other way- sort of out of laziness and sort of in an attempt to see if this stuff works- well, its been three weeks and I just got on the scale for the first time because I knew I'd lost a lot and wasn't scared of the dreaded scale like I usually am- I AM 124 POUNDS!!!! I'm 5ft 3in so this isn't quite my ideal yet, but I was almost 140 when I started this. I think the way it works is by just really killing your appetite while giving you some nourishment so your metabolism doesn't go into free fall. I've still been eating - I just am not that interested in it anymore. Not that into coffee anymore either, and my smoking is DOWN- I'll be honest, one of the reasons I didn't want to give up smoking was I was worried I would gain more weight. Ok, so I am losing AND smoking less- guess that reasoning is now blown out of the water. It just seems to kill your appetite for stuff of all kinds. All I can say is WOW. Today I dug into the closet and got an old pair of jeans out that I nearly threw away last year because I could not even get them up past my thighs, and today I zipped them up and am sitting comfortably in them here at the computer. This stuff WORKS - can't remember how I found this site, but I am SO grateful. Thanks everybody and good luck to anyone trying out the wonderful ACV!"

[YEA]  02/10/2007: Jane from Odessa, TX writes: "I have struggled with GERD, Overweight, and fatigue for several years. After the medical discovery that Prilosec, Nexium and other medications as these can stop calcium from being absorbed in your bones, I was a little scared. So I decided to do some web surfing for natural cures.. And YOU WERE HERE! Over a week ago I started the ACV and HOT water with baking soda mixture. The first three days I lost 5 pounds and my reflux problem was gone. It tried to come back later that first week, so I increased my intake of AVC to a more powerful solution.
1/2 cup of ACV
1/2 cup of water
1/2 teaspoon of Baking Soda ( 1 x day)

Today I weighed again ad I have lost 9 lbs! I am so happy! Plus my blood pressure is becoming more stable. The GERD is gone. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for this website! God bless you guys!!"

On 2/5/07 I began taking 1/2 cup of _______s Unfiltered ACV, 1/4 cup fresh squeezed lemons, cayenne pepper, and 2 tablespoons of honey in a quart of spring water and only 4 days later, I've lost 5 lbs.! I'm so excited about ACV; I didn't think it would work so fast. My goal is to lose 20-25 lbs. I will continue this regimen until I reach my goal. Thank you for this wonderful website!"

[YEA]  02/07/2007: Dixie from NYC writes: "Hi, I found this site and am amazed by what I am reading. My mother always told a story of how in the thirties, my uncle was a little boy and desperately ill. The doctors could not figure out what was wrong or how to help him and finally told my grandparents to prepare for the worst. Apparently all he kept asking for was vinegar (my mom never specified if it was ACV) and when things looked really bleak, they decided to let him have it since he never stopped asking for it and since there was no real reason to deny him, however bizarre it seemed to give it to him. He apparently struggled to drink it, but got through a whole bottle in a few hours despite his weakness. The fever suddenly broke and he fully recovered, and to this day no one in my family really understood how. Now I'm getting a clue as to why! So, I thought I would try the honey/water/AVC drink three times a day- today is day 5 and while I didn't see any real weight loss until today, today my jeans are suddenly loose! Also been using it as a toner and guess what! No trip to the dermo like I planned because my pores are getting smaller on their own! Depression doing a lot better too - though the jury is still out on that since today I was a bit down after a few up days - will check back in and let everyone know- but WOW! I'm amazed! My little uncle was really on to something, clearly!"
