And if you wanted, you could certainly add as many more supplements as you wanted. As you long as you take each one as directed (with food, without food, etc) and heed any label cautions, you'll get their benefits.

I wonder if all these things work together? Or are they going to 'cancel' each other out??!

I've spoken to many people who've successfully used chromium to lose fat, both with and without using other supplements. I've also spoken with people for whom it didn't seem to help at all. But since you've had some success with already, you should definitely consider using it again in the future. For one thing, even top-of-the-line chromium supplements are ridiculously inexpensive. For another, it's a tiny, tiny capsule (or tablet) and very easy to swallow, and you don't need to take very much at all. Finally, irrespective of whether or not a person is trying to cut fat or not, they need chromium. But chromium is hard to obtain in optimal amounts from diet alone, unless you have a truly bizarre diet. I'm currently using the NOW Foods brand and take 400 mcg per day, or 2 capsules. The 250 capsule bottle costs about 7 bucks and lasts 4 months. You can't beat that! I'd also encourage you to use the lecithin granules versus the softgels since it takes about 12 softgels to equal one tablespoon of the granules. The granules are essentially tasteless and 'disappear' into protein shakes, tastewise. Thanks for the comment Shellie.
