Tried and tested products






For the longest time, i've always been keen on trying out new weight loss products (those that their advertisements seem believable). In the posts to follow i will talk about my experience with each of these products.

Disclaimer: I am not promoting any of these brands, my posts are for information purposes only.

What i know about AVC

It has been touch and go with this product. It is one of the products i believe in because, like Black forest tea, my cousins, aunts and grandmothers have recommended it.

It has been said that apple's contains pectin, which is responsible for suppressing appetite, and the acid in the vinegar helps with digestion.

Fat problems

I've been overweight my entire adult life, and every day im reminded of it. The struggle i go through not finding a size when shopping, the flack i get from relatives at family events, the "special" front passenger seat that's always reserved for me because i am too fat to sit with others at the back... I came to realise that my weight bothers others more than it bothers me. To find out if more people shared the same problem, i took to asking a few ladies what annoys overweight people about their weight:

Weli Matshivha (@Weli_M): Not being able to find clothes i actually like, sweating, and having to be overly confident to cover up the fact that i'm fat.

Bonolo Molewa (@bon_2bon: I was my biggest in high school. i couldn't wear the normal 13-14 size clothes, i had to wear "adult" clothes.

Palesa Mathibeli (@mrs_Langa): I can't wear what i want, when i want. I would see an outfit on a mannequin but it won't look as good on me. Another thing that annoys me the most is when people tell me what and how i should eat.
