I want to share my story with you because I understand the unhappiness that can come from being overweight and how happy being in-shape has made me. This has been a long journey and I know I’m not alone. I’m not a fitness expert just a woman who figured out a really cool system that seems to work better then all the famous diets you have tried. I hope my story can help you not just lose weight, but also stay healthy, and feel better about yourself.
How did I end up gaining weight in first place?
Some skinny people think that flabby people get that way just because their lazy. But that’s not the case, truth is most woman gain extra weight because of Life. Work, school, husband - it all takes time away from our day. Plus its exhausting. - Seriously, who wants to come home from work, make dinner, and jump straight on a treadmill? Not me, for sure. Its not because of laziness, but people only have so much time & energy.
I’ve never been the skinniest person but at 128lbs, I used to be fairly slim. But the longer I was out of college the heavier I got, until I was around 146lbs. I wanted to start exercising and I honestly tried, but its just so time consuming. A little while later I broke up with my ex. Believe me I DID NOT want to gain weight after that, but I still did. I don’t eat that bad, but I’m so busy with work that I didn’t really have time to workout or eat right.
Eventually I weighed 156lbs and I felt uncomfortable in my own body. I started to try a bunch of diets I saw on TV, Atkins, South Beach, Soup, “Dry Diet”, it sounds silly so many diets, but none of them worked. In-fact things got even worse, I stopped going out with friends as much. I felt ugly. At one point I was almost 162 lbs. Then I saw something on Oprah and then later on Rachel Ray that has changed life.

Yep, that was me near my heaviest. I don’t have any pictures from when I was even bigger, but I’m happy that my new pictures will look great! All thanks to O, because on TV that day I saw two great products that helped me get here.
The TV show that turned my life around.
I wouldn’t say I owe my life to Oprah, but I would say that if I hadn’t been watching when Dr. Oz came on to talk about a new superfood called Acai berry, I’d probably still be fat.
Dr. Oz proceeded to talk about a berry that had been discovered in the Amazon Rainforest called “Acai” (pronounced ah-sah-eee). It’s similar to pomegranate but way more powerful and better tasting. The part that caught my attention was when Dr. Oz explained how these berries help you lose weight by suppressing hunger and boosting energy, exactly what we busy people needed. It was on Oprah and promoted by Dr. Oz so I figure it has to work to some extent!
Than it seemed almost coincidental when I saw him again the next day on other shows talking about another good way to lose weight. Dr. Oz mentioned that how green tea is a great way to increase your metabolism, therefore allowing me to burn more calories. I don’t know all the medical details, but basically there's a chemical that occurs 30%-40% more in green tea than in regular black tea. Because of green tea has more of the chemical, green tea has a lot of health beneits like reducing blood pressure and lowering cancer risk.
That’s when the idea for the “double diet” hit me. What if I tried both Acai products and green tea products to create a super safe and super effective diet?
The “double diet” diet that shed my flab for good
Ok, so I made up the name “double diet” But I think it sounds pretty cool. The reason I call my diet the double diet is because it uses the two products that Dr. Oz spoke about: Acai berry and green tea.
When I had my idea to combine these two methods, I needed to find a way to test it without spending lots of money. I searched for a few days and found some great free trials of products to test.
The two products I found, and still use, are Acai Berry Power 500 and Wu-Yi Green Tea.
Here’s how I combine them so effectively:
Step 1:
Free Trial of Acai Berry Power 500 is the first and most important part of my routine. If you’ve been watching TV lately you know that CNN, Oprah, Rachel Ray and many others have covered the health benefits of Acai pretty frequently.
Acai Berry helps me:
- Regulate my metabolism
- Suppress my hunger during the day
- boost my energy without making me feel jittery or losing sleep
- Lose several pounds from my body by replacing coffee and soda (and keep my teeth whiter
) - Revitalizes my skin cells. So when I lose the weight my skin will be tight around my body. This also tightens skin around my neck and face. Basically tightens your skin throughout your body. I just look younger, because I am tight everywhere.
I got a free 30-day trial and I simply love the fact that I can take the Acai and go on with my day with no worries. This would not work nearly as effective on it’s own, as when I combined it with step 2.
Step 2:
Free Trial of Wu-Yi Green Tea is the second important step in my routine. Without this step I don’t believe I would have achieved the same results, it really made a crucial difference for cleansing the toxins in my body. While Acai Berry gives me energy and helps suppress my hunger, Wu-Yi Green Tea:
- Increases my metabolism to burn calories faster
- Helped me lose several inches off my waist that exercise couldn’t
- Helped reduce my blood pressure and cholesterol levels
- This becomes a revitalizing cycle that keeps on benefiting my body over and over. I become beautiful again from the inside and now it will begin show on the outside.
I got a free bottle of green tea and I take 1 pill in the morning and 1 in the evening when I take my Acai. They are the perfect weight-loss combination, helping me shed flab and cleanse my system of harmful waste build up. (That’s why I call it the “double diet.”)
The results of MY OWN diet routine
During my trial period I lost 21 lbs! I continued using both products and lost another 11lbs. (That’s a total of 32lbs in 2 months!) I’m back to 138 and I’m just 10lbs away from my pre-breakup weight!
I feel healthier and more refreshed than ever. My friends are so proud of what I’ve accomplished and I have more energy to do fun activities with my kids. But best of all, I look and feel sexier than I did in my twenties!
I’ve talked with a few people who read this blog and have asked about if you can get Acai berry in stores. To be honest, I looked around myself, and all I found was the bottles of Acai berry Monavie which were £60, and that only lasts like a week. Acai berry and green tea have the free trials and you can lose a lot of weight just with that. If you decide to keep using them its still cheaper then any other diet I’ve ever used, plus you can always cancel once you lose the weight. Personally I would never go back to any other diet after having so much success with these products and hopefully I won’t ever need too lol.
I hope my story provides at least some motivation to help you lose weight. Just don’t give up, because loosing weight really will change your life in ways you never imagined. You’ll feel things you haven’t felt since you were 20. Most importantly, you’ll finally be happy with yourself for tackling your weight once and for all. What I liked best about Acai Berry is that its all natural and it just seems safer to take something from nature, rather then something made in a lab.
I really recommend my method; it worked wonders when everything else failed. But the best part is that the products I found have free trials, so you can test it out and see if it’s right for you.
Try my diet if your stuck in a rut
Be sure to order both Acai Berry Power 500 and Wu-Yi Green Tea if you want to get maximum results. Both products have amazing free trials with a full money-back guarantee. I just paid shipping (less than £5.00 for each).

I hope my story has inspired you to go take action change your life by losing weight. Don't give up because what if I had given up before seeing that episode? They say that you can't buy happiness... I think I did for only £10 ;). Let me know how it works out for everyone seriously!
- Grace ~ Good Luck!
PS: After some time I was excited to discover that celebrities and other famous people were losing weight as well.
Then of course Rachel Ray introduces the wine and uses it for her cooking later:

Grace, how long does it take to ship these products?
October 19th, 2008 at 8:34 am
Jenn, it takes about a week to get the products. Good luck!
October 21th, 2008 at 5:50 pm
Thanks for sharing your story Grace! Just ordered a free trial of both. I’ll keep you posted!

i just want to let you know that i got my free trials for both of these about 2 weeks ago and i’m already seeing results. just like you, i tried so many diets to lose weight and nothing worked. i’m starting to feel better about myself for the first time in my life. thank you so much for being an inspiration.

I have a coworker who’s on this diet and she loves it. I kind of thought it was one of those diets where it works for some and not for others. That’s how most dieting products seem to work. But, after reading all the success that you guys have had, I’m thinking of trying it too. Why not when it’s FREE!

I used to exercise about a half hour 2-3 days a week, nothing really intense… I lost some weight, but then I got stuck at the same level no matter what I tried. I’ve had problems to stay away from junk food, and I really like the idea that this product can help kill your cravings for bad foods, which has always been the challenge for me! thanks for this story, I’m going to order the acai berry and wu yi tea combo and will let you know how it worked for me.

Your posting was very motivating. I have the same struggles with food. I want to make a change. Sometimes it is so hard. But I am working toward it now. I ordered the two diets and it should be here any day. I feel like I'm on my way to weight success. I am going to keep daily entries and hopefully I can make a motivational page too and help others reach their goals. Again thank you so much.

I just happend to click on your page one day. Your story has definitely inspired me, Grace. I already signed up for my shipment. Thank you for motivating me to do something about my weight.

This stuff really works, I found out about these from Rachael Ray just like you and I really can't believe the results. I'm really skeptical when I see stuff like this on TV but I got some free trials the same way you did. Keep up the good work!
November 9th, 2008 at 11:46 am
I think my wife would like this. She’s been looking for something along these lines. I’ll buy her the trials to test.
November 11th, 2008 at 6:09 pm
Sounds interesting. I heard a lot about Acai all over the place. You’re the second person I heard of who had good results. Seems like it’s time to give it a shot. Thanks!
