Full Time Energy Super Fruit and Berry Weight Loss Blend

Over the past year, I've lost 25 pounds and would love to continue to trend and lose even more.  That's why, when I was offered to receive Full Time Energy Weight Loss Blend free of charge in exchange for my honest review, I was stoked to give it a try!  I've used other products with Raspberry Ketones and Garcinia Cambogia in them in the past, with varying negative results.  Either the products have suppressed my appetite so much that I get physically ill when I try to eat (which isn't good - our bodies need fuel!), or they have no effect on me what-so-ever.

Sadly, this product falls into the latter category.  When I first received the product, I put it straight into my refrigerator, because I was worried about the taste.  I know refrigerating liquids can help them go down more smoothly, so I was hoping it'd help.  The next morning, I filled up the cap and took a swig.  Surprisingly, this stuff doesn't taste all that bad!

After a few hours, I realized that I never felt a burst of energy, and I was STARVING.  It was as if this product actually increased my appetite, rather than suppressing it - which I have also experienced in Garcinia Cambogia products in the past.  Different products affect everyone's bodies a little different, unfortunately this just isn't the product for me.

Valentina Paris Hand Painted Wine Glasses

If you ever are looking to say, "Just one glass", yet drink half of your bottle of wine, these glasses are your ticket!

Seriously though, these hand painted wine glasses are beautiful.  I received them for free of charge in exchange for my honest review, and love being able to pull them out when company comes over.  The only problem is that they are so large they don't even fit in my cupboards!  Thankfully, they are gorgeous enough that I don't mind them sitting out - they serve a double purpose as a decorative piece!

50 Assorted Craft Sanding Sticks

I do a lot of crafting, so when I was offered to review the above pictured craft sanding sticks at a discount, I knew it would be a great deal and motivation to get some more of my projects complete!

These sanding sticks are just as expected - they come in all different shapes, grits, and colors and work just like all of the nail files that I've purchased in the past.  If you use nail files regularly in your crafting, I highly suggest picking up this bulk assortment on Amazon at http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CPS30LG/ref=sr_ph?ie=UTF8

Garcinia Cambogia Appetite Suppressant Supplement

When Summit Nutritions offered to send me their Garcinia Cambogia supplement in exchange for reviewing it, I was super excited!   This product claims to block fat and suppress your appetite to help you with your diet and exercise regimen.  I was even more excited upon receiving the product, to see that they threw in a bottle of their Raspberry Ketones, too!  Raspberry Ketones claim to be a "miracle fat burner" - and although I haven't gotten to try them out yet due to wanting to get a solid opinion of the Garcinia Cambogia, I can't wait to be done with the first bottle and get started on the second!

First off, the products do not look like they are pictured - the pills are all white, not colored as they are in the photo.  The Raspberry Ketones also come in a white bottle, and the label appears as if it was affixed by a monkey - not to mention they expire in March.  (Maybe that's why they were sent free of charge?)   I realize those are petty observations, I just wanted to get them out of the way.

Onto the important stuff!  Summit Nutritions' Garcinia Cambogia is All Natural, GMO & Gluten Free.  The directions say to take 1 capsule with 6 oz of water twice daily, approx 30 minutes before meals.  This is supposed to help block any fats you ingest and suppress your appetite so that you eat less.  In my line of work, I really don't have time to stop and eat a lunch so I love having the ability to take an appetite suppressant, eat a quick meal replacement bar, and be back to work within 5 minutes.  Sadly, when I did that with this supplement, I was STARVING within an hour.  Quite honestly, I was probably more hungry than I would have been normally  - and I've since seen many other reviewers say they also feel the supplement had the opposite effect on them.  Also, this is one of those pills that you can feel something stuck in your throat well after swallowing, which I find annoying.

I don't believe this product is for everyone.  It's definitely not a miracle pill, but Summit Nutritions doesn't advertise it as one, either.  I have an issue with self control when it comes to food, and this product just seemed to make those cravings even harder to resist.
