OxyElite Pro Diet Pill Review

OxyElite Pro Diet Pill Review

I was on this diet pill for one week and lost 5 pounds.  Great.  If you are sensitive to caffeine stay away from this one.  I took an OxyElite in the morning before breakfast and had trouble falling asleep at night.  I had other side effects listed below.  I did not really feel like eating until mid-day when it is the most stressful time of day for me.  I felt that the effects of the diet supplement worked even in the evening.  Losing 5 pounds in a week is great especially since it was pms week when I crave chocolate and salty chips.  I felt like the diet pill works and probably would continue taking it had I not started another diet (one that I hope to lose even more for a much more sustained time) that you are not supposed to be taking anything like this.

Oxy Elite Pro negatives:     
Stomach ache
Caffeine buzz
Headache
Sleeplessness
High Priced

I bought this diet pill at GNC it costs about $60.00 for a bottle of 90 capsules.  The associate told me that the OxyElite Pro was their best selling diet pill.  He also said it may be taken off of the market because it was similar to ephedra and the FDA might have it pulled from the shelves.

Apple Cider Vinegar Diet - Review Week 1

Apple Cider Vinegar Diet - Review Week 1

Well it has been a week on the Apple Cider Vinegar Diet.  Results are mixed, I have not lost any weight yet and I still am hungry but I am seeing some positive results.

I am using an organic, raw and unfiltered brand of AVC.  I used the Bragg brand of Apple Cider Vinegar and found it at my GNC store.   I have been taking a tablespoon of the apple cider vinegar for my diet twice a day, in the morning and night.  I mix the organic Apple Cider Vinegar with a tablespoon of raw honey in an 12 oz. glass of cold water.  Now they say warm water is better, but it just tastes horrible that way.  I also tried to do an ACV shot but that burned all the way down and I won't be doing that anytime soon.

What I have noticed is that I feel better.  I don't have as many aches and pains as I normally do.  That feeling is worth it to me to continue on this diet and see if there are any more exciting results.

I will try for a while longer and report back here.

Update:

I did not lose any weight with this diet.  If I had taken a dose of Apple Cider Vinegar before every meal, I imagine that I would have lost from the extra water intake.  I will say that I do believe the the ACV does have some value, such as, using it for an acne treatment or to balance out your digestion.

Apple Cider Vinegar Diet - Review

Apple Cider Vinegar Diet - Review

Apple Cider Vinegar also known as ACV has been touted online as a cure all tonic and natural weight loss aid.  Whether or not all of the reports are true is not what I am reviewing, but rather the reports of Apple Cider Vinegar resulting in weight loss by just drinking one tablespoon in the morning, afternoon and evening or before each meal. 

What I want to find out is can I lose weight by just drinking a little Apple Cider Vinegar.  I am not changing anything right now, other than drinking the ACV.  They say that Apple Cider Vinegar is a natural appetite suppressant. 

For my weight loss experiment with Apple Cider Vinegar diet I have decided to use an organic, raw and unfiltered brand of AVC.  I used the Bragg brand of Apple Cider Vinegar and found it at my GNC store.  Bragg states that their Apple Cider Vinegar helps with weight control and I cannot wait to find out if that is true.

I do have to say that the Apple Cider Vinegar tastes nasty, but if it works as a diet aid, it will be well worth it.  It is best to drink the Apple Cider Vinegar for weight loss in a cup of water.  I probably will combine the Apple Cider Vinegar with olive oil for a salad dressing to help with the taste.  It also helps that I consider it medicine to help me lose weight and medicine does not taste good. 

I will try for a while and report back here.

The Carbohydrate Addict diet - Review

The Carbohydrate Addict Diet Book Review- Low Carb Diet

I love carbs!  I am addicted to carbohydrates.  Sounds like a group confession.  Anyways I thought because I like to eat carbs that I might benefit from this Carbohydrate Addict Diet.  I had tried this diet for about 3 days a long time ago and thought maybe I didn't do it right and would give it another go.

The last time I tried The Carbohydrate Addict Diet I read all the authors warnings against people with low blood sugar not using this diet.  I have always thought that I may have low blood sugar, but it has never been doctor confirmed.  Well during the first run years ago I tried it for three days and got massive headaches and thought it wasn't worth the pain.

Well desperate times call for desperate measures.  I thought I would try the diet again - regardless of the headaches that may come.  Besides that is why we have Advil and Tylenol for right.  The Carbohydrate Addict's Diet:  The Lifelong Solution to Yo-Yo Dieting written by Dr. Rachael F. Heller and Dr. Richard F. Heller.  Written by two doctors so how could you go wrong?

I love the concept behind the diet.  Eat 2 low carb diet meals and then get a reward meal.  What a reward meal, for one week I had dessert with dinner every night.  Then I had a weigh in and I did not lose a pound.  Very disappointing.  My husband did the diet with me and lost 8 pounds in a week on this diet.  So how could I not lose anything?  I am confused, I followed the diet and did not cheat, and didn't lose any weight.  I feel like I lost a week on this diet.  There are other Diets I know that I could have used and at least lost 1 to 2 pounds in a week on them.

So I guess I am on to the next fad diet or some dieting book not sure what it will be - but the search continues.

Slimquick Razor Diet Pills Review

Lose weight with Slimquick Razor Diet Pills?  They claim you can  lose up to 25 pounds while using this product.

I have used some of the other Slimquick diet products and not had any success.  I thought I would give this one a try because it looked different and I was desperate for some help to lose weight and control my appetite. 

If you follow the directions on the box and take the pills I believe you will lose weight.  I have used these pills a few times to quickly lose about 10 pounds.  I stayed on the pills for about 3 weeks and the lower calorie diet and lost the 10 pounds.

I believe if I was able to control myself and my eating for the entire three months that the pills would have worked and I would have lost the 25 pounds.  I still have more of the pills and plan on using them during the summer months when I don't have as much stress in my life.  I would recommend these pills to friends and family.

A little warning:  This diet pill has lots of caffeine in it, so if you are not used to any caffeine then start it slowly because you might get headaches from them.

My Job is Making Me FAT

Help, My job is making me Fat! 

If you work in any type of food industry just seeing and smelling food can make you hungrier.  So yes you can get fat by just working in and around food.  It doesn't mean that you will but the potential is there.  Especially for me because I don't actually get a lunch break.  I am able to eat the food and for free but I have a limited amount of time in which to eat anywhere from three to seven minutes.  I don't know about you but I can't enjoy a meal and take my time and savor each bite when I am cramming a slice of pizza down my throat so my stomach will stop grumbling and my headache will go away. 

Other work place hazards include snack machines, break rooms, candy bowls on desks, co-workers birthdays and party's.  If you are trying to lose weight or just trying to not gain weight while at work you will have to remain vigilant and watch out for all those little extras that try to sneak up on you while at work.  Don't let your job make you fat.

I know the exercise bike works, I have personally seen results.  I just need to keep motivated and start my new good exercise habit and keep it up.  I am looking for a dieting twofer here:  1. more energy 2. more calories burned and weight loss.

Here's to hoping it works out!
