Sweat Band Waist Trainer 7/27/23

 

So anyone that knows me or has known me knows that I have struggled with my weight all my life from about 8 years old.  I know you think that is really young, but it was always pointed out that I had to wear a half size larger than my sister.  Half size?  Yes. When I was young, we were sometimes bought dresses that were alike or similar and mine was always X size larger. So if she got an 8, mine was an 8X.  Now no one understands the effect that has on a child when they were told they were too fat to wear the same size.  

Anyway, that is the past.  The best thing I have purchased in the last few years is a waist trainer or sweat band.  I bought it from Amazon and on the band itself it says “10X Sweat” and I love it.  When I first started using it was in 2020 after I was laid off.  I started out walking for 20 minutes every day or at least 3 times a week.  I built up to a mile in 20 minutes and I just slowly increased that time and distance.  When I lost enough weight that I had to buy small shorts, I also bought this waist band.  I love it because it supports my back and helps to pull everything in to where it needs to be.  Amazon has several that they sell.  I moved and couldn’t find the one that I had been using so I bought a new one.  It was pretty good but bigger than I thought it would be and didn’t give me the support I needed.  

I was able to finally find my older waist band and have been using it now for two weeks and I can already tell the difference.  My back doesn’t hurt from walking and I’m slimming down some more.  

 Weight Loss Gummies

You can’t be on the internet or tiktok and not see ads or posts about weight loss gummies.  Most of the gummies that are advertised, I can’t afford.  Why would you offer a product and charge 60.00 a bottle?  Anyway, I’ve watched the videos by Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood, Tim McGraw and Oprah, and I’ve seen the differences in their bodies now that they lost the weight.  I’ve even seen the show where Dr. Oz promoted gummies.  After reading the back of these bottles of different gummies to see what the ingredients were, I couldn’t really see anything different.  So I went on Amazon and bought what I thought was an equal ingredient gummies.  I bought two bottles and was very motivated to take them as they directed on the bottles.  I was so excited to see some difference in my weight.  The ones I bought were put out by Toniq and they are simply labeled “Apple Cider Vinegar + Keto BHB Salts; 60 gummies in each bottle and you take two a day. 

I was religious in not missing any and I can honestly say that I didn’t lose any weight but I did get indigestion every time I took them because of the amount of apple cider vinegar.  Now I know what you are thinking that I should have spent the money on the ones that the celebrities were advertising.  Truth!  But how many people can spend 60.00 a bottle knowing it is going to take more than one bottle?  Now I haven’t given up on the gummies.  I’ve actually bought a bottle that says it is the one Shark Tank promoted.  I have started those and as soon as I finish the bottle I will do a review on those as well.  

I’m going to review any weight loss product that I buy and will share it here.  I’ve tried a bunch over the years and some worked and most didn’t.  Hopefully, someone will get some use from this post.  

Have a great day!

Thanks!
