The Acai Berry: Part 2

So as you can imagine I'm expecting some miracle results taking these tablets.  Obviously I know the benefits won't be evident straight away; I know the affects of the miracle berry will take time to show themselves but boy I wasn't expecting the results I got within days.

They claim that The Acai Berry is supposed to give you glowing skin. Hmmmm.....so why am I getting spots?  I know when you're detoxing your body you can expect to get the odd spot or two but considering I drink green or white tea every day, I'm not expecting my detox to be that detoxifying.  Am I being naive here?  Perhaps.

The other side affect I experienced while taken the Berry (not to be confused with the BlackBerry), was constipation.  I was a bit apprehensive to actually write about this, I don't think I need to broadcast my toilet habits but if I'm going to journal my progress on this I have to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but (no pun intended).  I was in complete shock (and discomfort).  I'm supposed to be getting detoxed not blocked up.

I had to stop taking the tablets because there was no way I was going to put up with feeling like that!! I'd rather keep my toxins!!  However I realised that I may not have been experiencing the above because of the Berry. So I'm going to give it another chance and of course, I'll let you know what happens.  Wish me luck!!!

Ps. I've actually managed to lose half a stone but mainly due to my own hard work and nothing to do with the Berry.

    As u know wen detoxing spots may appear. Green tea even though it acts
    As a ant oxidant, the form that we drink it in is very weak. So it's not a deep detox drink. What I wanna know on the box of accai did it say drink plenty of water. Usually when taking these types of tablets u meant to drink loads of water. Well it's great u lost some weight, hope ur skin clears up before Cyprus:)

    Thanks for your comment Mars. There's nothing on the box about water apart from that the tablet should be taken with water but I drink a lot of water anyway. I expect to get spots taking this but I didn't expect to be constipated, in fact I expected the opposite in that area but anyway lol. My skin is looking okay at the moment. Hope it stays that way for Cyprus

Dining Table Heaven!!

My absolute favourite piece of furniture at the moment is my custom made dining table. I’ve talked about getting a dining table for about three years and last year I finally got this beauty. Massive thank you to Blacker and Oak who custom made this for me. Check them out on Instagram (link below) and Etsy (search Blacker and Oak).  Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/blackerandoak

Yes I keep up with the Kardashians and no I’m not ashamed!!

I’m going to make a bold statement! Are you ready...? I love Keeping up with the Kardashians!!!   Honestly I do and I’ve found over the years that many people share my healthy obsession with the family but like me, they kind of keep it under wraps. I’ve also found that people who don’t like the Kardashians, think it’s okay to belittle those of us who do but I’m sorry that’s just not kool (see what I did there 😉).  Why do you love the Kardashians I hear you cry. Well personally I work in a very tense environment and to be honest, before I started my current job 6 years ago, I had never even watched the Kardashians. One of my peers was totally in to Kim K and the rest of the family and because of her, I thought I’d have a little watch and you know what....I’ve never looked back.  If you’re highly stressed about something or work in an intense environment like myself, sometimes you just need a break and that break can take many forms. Reading, meditating, writing, working out, watching t

Is it just me.....

.....or has fashion gone completely mad??? Like seriously, what are people thinking??? I have seen some absolutely shocking things out on road and I'm like, "do you not own a mirror in your yard, do you have no shame?" Let me elaborate on some of the things I'm talking about.....well one of the things and let me tell you, in the words of Peter Griffin, it really "grinds my gears". Are you ready? It's LEGGINGS!!! Now ladies, leggings are NOT, I repeat NOT trousers and therefore should not be worn as such. When the fashion of wearing leggings first came on to the scene, they were modelled as under garments, to be worn under long tops or jumpers. I now see people wearing these things as trousers, with short tops, their big old VPL and stripy knickers out of door with their big asses just wobbling about the place. The only time it is acceptable to wear leggings with a short top is if you're out running, in the gym or in a dance studio!!! Now that
