My name is Jen and I wanted to share my weight loss story with you. I’m no medical guru or anything like that. I’m just a mom who figured out a system that works better than all the famous diets you tried (you know, the ones that didn’t work?). Hopefully my story can inspire you to try my method and lose some weight!
Most skinny people think that flabby people got that way because they’re lazy. Truth is, many woman gain extra weight because of life. Kids, work, school—it all takes time from our day. And it’s all so exhausting. Who wants to come home after a full day of work, put kids to sleep, and jump straight on the treadmill? Not me, that’s for sure. And it has nothing to do with laziness. People only have so much energy.
I used to weigh 132lbs. I wasn’t “supermodel skinny,” but I was pretty slim. After my first son was born, I gained about 10 lbs. After my third kid was born, I gained a total of 31lbs.
I weighed 163lbs and felt uncomfortable in my own body. So I decided to start dieting. I tried all the “brand-name” diets like Atkins, South Beach, cabbage (my least favorite), soup, lemon juice. You name it, I tried it. But none produced real results that lasted. So I gave up.
I stopped going out with friends. I felt ugly. I started eating more and more because I just didn’t care. I was in a downward spiral. At my heaviest, I weighed 187lbs. Then I saw something on Oprah that changed my life.
Yep, that was me at my heaviest and right before my life changed when I started using Acai Berry Power 500 and Total Cleanse.

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 raved about a new berry from the Amazon Rainforest called Acai (pronounced “ah-sa-ee”). It’s more powerful than pomegranate or red wine. And tastier too. But the part that hooked me was when Dr. Oz explained how Acai helps you lose weight by reducing hunger and raising energy levels. Acai seemed like the product I had been waiting for all along. And I trusted Oprah not to have shady doctors on, so I had a feeling this wasn’t one of those “too good to be true” products.
It could have been dumb luck, but the very next day I saw Dr. Oz on another show talking about how cleansing your colon is a great way to lose unwanted weight. I don’t know all the medical details, but basically he was explaining how years worth of gunk and junk get trapped in your colon and trap in all sorts of toxins. It’s a thick slime like tar and it also ads a few inches to your waistline.
You can do all the exercise you want, but it won’t get it out (maybe that’s why all those diets failed for me). Dr. Oz said that cleansing out this sludge would help you lose weight in ways dieting and exercise can’t.
That’s when the idea for the “dynamic duo” hit me. What if I tried both Acai products and colon cleanse products to create a super safe and super effective diet?
Ok, so I made up the name “dynamic duo.” But I think it sounds pretty cool. The reason I call my diet the dynamic duo is because it uses the two products that Dr. Oz spoke about: Acai and colon cleanse.
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 Total Cleanse.
Here’s how I combine them so effectively:
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 and Oprah have covered the health benefits of Acai pretty frequently.
Acai Berry Power 500 and Total Cleanse helps me:
I got a free 30-day trial of Acai Berry Power 500 and I simply love the fact that I can take the Acai and go on with my day with no worries.
Total Cleanse is the second important step in my routine. While Acai Berry Power 500 gives me energy and helps suppress my hunger, Total Cleanse:
I got a free bottle of Total Cleanse 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 “dynamic duo.”)
During my trial period I lost 25 lbs! I continued using both products and lost another 17lbs. (That’s a total of 42lbs in 3 months!) I’m back to 145 and I’m just 10lbs away from my pre-mom weight!
I feel healthier and more refreshed than ever. My husband is 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 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.
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.
Be sure to order both Acai Berry Power 500 and Total Cleanse 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).
