Don’t Forget About You When Planning Your Wedding!
October 30, 2008
Short of giving birth our wedding day is one of the biggest days of our lives and of course one that can be very costly.
With this comes a whole host of stresses. Who do we invite? Where shall we have the reception? How much will it cost? What will I wear? The list goes on and on ….
We all spend a lot of time planning all of these things. One thing we can forget is to take a bit of time to make sure we don’t forget about ourselves and I don’t mean booking the hairdressers either.

Two Months Of Taking Proactol And I’ve Reached My Target Weight
October 27, 2008
This could be the shortest post ever as the title says it all. However I will expand on it just a little. At the very beginning, the back end of august to be precise I started to take Proactol and was looking to lose around a stone in weight. Well I have done it and in around 2 months, which I don’t think is too bad at all, nice steady weight loss meaning with a bit of luck I will not pile it all back on again.
Don’t worry because My Proactol Diary won’t end here. I will let you know how I get on in the coming months whether I put any weight back on and if so how much. Also whether I lose any further weight. I have a feeling that with Christmas coming up then I will take Proactol again. I am determined this christmas not to put weight back on and if Proactol helps me not to do this then I will not hesitate in ordering another few boxes of Proactol.
So how am I feeling? In all honesty pretty damm good. Confidence is getting back to what it was and clothes that I want to wear I can!
My own experience of taking the weight loss supplement Proactol has been a good one. I have lost weight, suffered no side effects and am feeling the best I have in a long while.
If you would like to go on your own Proactol weight loss journey click here.
Don’t forget I will be back to let you know how I get on keeping the weight off.
One more question to answer for you before I sign off today. Have I stopped taking Proactol? Not yet I haven’t because I would like to lose a couple more pounds, but what I am doing is cutting the amount down that I take. I don’t want to be reliant on them for ever, that was and is something I have no intention of ever happening. I have reached my target weight loss so its time for me to reduce them down.
Do Carb Blockers work?
October 21, 2008
As I have found out by taking Proactol, the only way to find out if a carb blocker will work for you is to try one out for yourself.
A carb blocker that is available to buy online and without a prescription is Dietrine Carb Blocker.
You may have heard of Phase 2, which has prooved popular amongst those who find it difficult to lose weight with diet and exercise alone. Phase 2 comes from the white kidney bean and neutralizes the enzyme alpha amylase produced in the pancreas, normally used to break down carbs. When this happens starches are then able to pass through your digestive system without being broken down into glucose and fat, decreasing your net caloric intake meaning you lose weight.
You don’t need to worry about having to go out to buy Dietrine as you are able to order Dietrine Carb Blocker from the comfort of your own home. As it is a 100 percent stimulant-free, botanical supplement, you don’t have to worry about harmful side effects or drug interactions. When you order Dietrine Carb Blocker, you will also receive lifetime membership to their online weight loss program,along with a weight loss hypnosis download and an e-book with 71 weight loss tips that contains all the tricks you need to promote real fat loss!

Losing Weight When You Go On Holiday???
October 20, 2008
Yep, I am back and ready to update you on My Proactol weight loss story. Now just over a week ago I let you know that I was off on my holidays. Just a week but none-the-less a week where Proactol would well and truly be put to the test.
I really didn’t expect to eat as much rubbish as I did. I am normally one for at least making some sort of effort to eat some healthy food at least some of the time. Oh no, this last week was a week full of junk food and I mean full on meal after meal of rubbish. Chinese, Indian, Burger King, Pizza, McDonalds to name just a few. Not surprise really that by the end of it all I craved for was a salad!
Last week not only left me feeling pretty yucky, but I also had the horrible sinking feeling that I had put on weight. All those weeks of being good and exercising had gone down the pan. Or so I thought……
This morning I got on the scales prepared for the fact that my weight had gone up. Only to find I had lost 1lb (Now I know 1lb is not a lot but what I had eaten in the past week 1lb was a minor miracle). Gob smacked to say the least and hugely relieved.
At the beginning I have to say I was sceptical about weight loss pills but taking Proactol really has proved me wrong. This week should be a much quieter week so I am looking forward to a good weight loss week.

Going Away On Holiday And Keeping The Weight Off
October 9, 2008
Now it’s going to go a bit quiet over the next week. This is because I am off on my holidays, call it a pre-christmas treat. Well why not we all deserve a break and after losing weight I feel the need for a well deserved treat.
I am looking forward to it. For one because after losing weight I feel confident and not worrying about what I will look and feel like or what other people are thinking will be a refreshing change. Another reason is because I am curious to see what I weigh when I get back, as we all know holidays are a time when it is fair to say most of the time we come back a little heavier.
I have my Proactol pills ready and packed making sure I have enough for the time I am away. Realistically as I will be doing very little exercise apart from lifting a glass I would like to come back weighing at least the same. It would be fab if I lost weight, so it will be interesting to see.
When I get back I shall jump on those scales and let you know how I get on.
Have a good week with your weight loss and I’ll see you in a week.

The Effect Of Cold Weather On Your Skin
October 8, 2008
Wintertime is not a good time for your skin. The cold weather, the increased wind and central heating going on in your house causing a dry atmosphere is all things your skin could do without. All these factors decrease the moisture from your skin and can cause the inevitable dry, flaky peeling skin add on top of this acne and you are in for a few months of increased discomfort.
Keeping your skin hydrated during these colder periods is key. So how do you do this?
1. Take a look at your cleanser. Just because it has worked for you during the summer months does not necessarily mean that it will be as effective during the colder periods. If you find that your skin is feeling tighter and dryer after you have cleansed you may need to look at switching to a milder cleanser.
2. Whether you have normal skin or skin that is prone to acne moisturizing is still a vital part of your skin care routine. If you are looking to avoid dry flaky skin then moisturizing is a must. Now you are moisturizing from the outside, don’t forget the inside. Just because it is not as warm outside does not mean you should consume less water. Makes sure you keep your skin hydrated from the inside too.
3. If you are finding that your skin is particularly dry during the winter periods and you are using an acne treatment, try using it every other day to reduce the dryness. If your acne medication is prescribed by a doctor make sure you check first though.

Want To Become A Weight Loss Winner This Christmas? Here is How:
October 7, 2008
I am conscious that with Christmas not that far away that we should give a bit of thought to keeping in shape this festive season. Not leave it so late that there is no point or end up on that inevitable new years resolution to lose a few pounds and get in shape after Christmas.
For those of you who have already visited Dietreviewzone you will know that I embarked on my own weight loss journey taking the weight loss supplement Proactol. My Proactol Diary gives you an insight as to what it can be like when taking a weight loss supplement in order to lose weight.
For me I have already started my weight loss journey. Over the next few months I will be focusing on how to keep in shape and not put the weight back on. With Christmas in the front of my mind as an important and usually heavy eating time that I want to enjoy and not feel like I am the size of an elephant at the end of it.
So whether you are looking to lose weight or not put on weight this Christmas what are your options?
1. Not eat or drink or eat very much. I personally do not have the willpower for that and besides I want to enjoy myself!
2. Eat healthy over Christmas - I’m all for being a bit careful but no need to go too far is there? Another option maybe?
3. You could take a weight loss supplement or appetite suppressant. Helping you to get rid of any unwanted fats or suppressing your hunger cravings so you do not overindulge.
If you think that number 3 is an option you would like to try then read our reviews of the following weight loss supplements

Losing Weight And Getting Your Confidence Back!
October 7, 2008
Yes my posts have tailed off a bit these last few weeks. The reason? I am going out and enjoying myself , meeting up with old friends. This has 100% to do with my new found confidence, because I have lost weight and am wearing the clothes I want to again!
My reasons for taking Proactol was originally to see if they did what they said on the tin. Yes, I needed to lose a bit of weight but I never really gave much thought to how I would feel if/when I did lose the weight. I had forgotten how nice it was to enjoy wearing clothes and get complemented on how well I looked.
As each day goes by and I lose more weight and it stays off, my confidence is soaring. It feels great and I am so glad I took the plunge and have been taking Proactol. My hunger cravings have definitely not been as bad as previous attempts at losing weight and also I haven’t felt myself getting obsessive about it either. For me taking Proactol has taken the pressure off me and actually meant I have enjoyed this weight loss and found it easy to stick too.
Exercising has also become a part of my life once again. Not too excessive but enough to help me keep my new look once I stop taking Proactol. It is also a great way to get out and meet people.
Weight loss now is 13lbs in total. So continuing on a nice steady and safe weight loss. Not far now and I will have reached my target!
