Xilo Gum and Birthday Greatness

Well I did it, I survived my birthday weekend with a smile on my face and a total loss of 23.8 pounds so far!  My weekend was full of awesome, including but not limited to: a MUCH needed mani/pedi, a massage (my first in over 6 years), a nice long nap, Chris Porter at the Improv, the first birthday party of my best friends son, hot tubbing, filet mignon, a Bar Mitzvah and LOTS of family time. Whew...I am pooped!  Almost feel like I need another day off to get caught up on laundry sleep.  *yawn*

On to bigger and better things!  I got an early birthday present from HCG Diet.com with some awesome goodies to try out thanks to my friend Kelly Olexa and her company FitFluential.  Kelly put me in contact with the awesome team at HCGDiet.com and they hooked me up with some Xilo Gum and Chocolate Triumph Slim to try out.

The Xilo gum is FANTASTIC and exactly what I have been looking for to help me get through the desire to snack.  It has a very good flavor and doesn't taste any different than any other regular gum.  I definitely didn't feel like I was eating "diet" gum which was great.  I will definitely be continuing to chew on this gum to keep my cravings at bay.

Stay tuned for my full review of the Triumph Slim.  This weekend was wonky with my eating, so I'm not sure how it effects the scale for me yet.  HOWEVER, I do know that it is YUMMY and made no birthday cake easy as pie.  I mixed in 4 frozen strawberries, some water and a scoop of the powder - used my Magic Bullet and made HCG heaven in a cup.  YUM!

I hope everyone is enjoying their last few weekends of summer - soak it up peeps, Christmas is right around the corner!

Peace

  1. I am so glad I'm not the only one who thinks Triumph Slim is amazing! And Xilo gum! The spearmint is good but I have to say, cinnamon is my favorite. Some days I chew 2 pieces at once when the cravings are bad! :) Happy birthday by the way.
