Thanks to Nadja (Hunger Hurts, Starving Works) who found this about c & s:
When you smell, see, taste food, your body begins to release more stomach acid and insulin. Having an increase in insulin causes an increase in sugar storage - basically insulin grabs what sugar it can from the blood and moves it into muscle, and the liver as stores, and this will show in your weight! A lot of people will find that they may gain weight rather than lose it when chewing and spitting.
Thanks again Nadja!

how depressing!
Chewing and spitting is the worst ever. First you can never spit everything out you have in your mouth and second at a certain point it becomes so unbelievably difficult to NOT swallow it because you're craving so much. Better stay away from food completely...
hahaha, maybe that explains why i've never managed to do it successfully...i always end up swallowing at some point! Thanks for the info!!!
