Well ! I am a Homeopath and LYCOPODIUM CLAVATUM is a Homeopathic Remedy. But I have never seen it used for weight loss, and you cannot take Homeopathic remedies like the way you have mentioned. Homeopathy treats the patient not the disease or disorder. The patients symptoms have to be noted from head to toes before prescribing an appropriate remedy for his?her disease or disorder. I am giving the symptoms of LYCOPODIUM below please read them carefully and you won't find anything in it which would show that it is a remedy for shedding weight.

I am a frequent traveler to the Baja, take my advice and skip T.J. From LA you can take the Greyhound all the way to the border or AMTRAK and then the city bus or trolley. Or park your rental car at the border, tell the attendant you'll be gone a couple of days and to please keep an eye on your car. If you are nice and maybe even give your guy a sweet smile and a tip in advance he might let you park your car up front in the VIP (lol) section so he can keep a better eye on it. Once you cross over the border bridge you'll be in front of the Bus station. Take the bus to Rosarito for a day of swimming , horseback riding, jet skiing or ATV riding. Take a taxi to Puerto Nuevo for a delicious and inexpensive lobster dinner. Roasrito Beach Hotel is a nice happening place to stay. For your second day go to Ensenada, tour the blowhole, shop and pick one of the many restaurant's to eat at. Most of the hotels on the main drag are nice and clean. I prefer the Hotel Santo Tomas (I have no idea about the hostels or if they even have them, I'd rather pay the money and be safe and sanitary).Stay where the tourist are and don't drink too, too much and turn into the ugly gringo and you shouldn't have any problems. Have Fun, Lapazn

Hmm... I'm sensing a theme here. There are definite safety concerns for two young ladies traveling unaccompanied in TJ alone. -Best way to get there is just to take Amtrak to San Diego, then take the Red Trolley all the way to the border. It literally drops you right off at the border. -Don't spend the night in TJ. If you must, stay in San Ysidro, on the US side. Better yet, find a nice hostel in San Diego. -You only need one day. Cross the border, shop, eat in a couple restaurants (DON'T drink any water), and have some fun. You can easily walk to the tourist areas, no need for a taxi. (They'll try to lure you into one as soon as you walk across. If you do, negotiate the fare BEFORE you get in).

After 10 years of struggling with all sorts of creams and pills to treat this embarrassing problem I was able to get rid of my varicose veins by using natural healing methods and alternative herbal home remedies.

Read Diane Thompson's "Varicose Veins Secrets" (also available in electronic format at: http://www.varicoseveinscure.org ). By following this guide book I was able to eradicate my varicose veins pretty fast. God bless!

Instead of playing chemist with your body, you should do some yard work or other productive exercise..
