“I was surprised when I lost 9 lbs – but once I lost 25 lbs, I was blown away! Now I know how all the stars drop weight and stay slim so easily!”
Hey, this is Nadia Conrad and as a working mom, I know that losing weight, and keeping the pounds off can be next to impossible. Between taking my two girls to school, activities, and then adding my own work on top of everything, eating right is not always in the forefront of my mind. I make sure my girls eat healthy, but sometimes it is quicker for me to just go through a drive-thru than to cut up a bunch of veggies to have with me as I run hear and there.
This is my story. After having my first little girl, who is now 8, I was able to lose all but about 15 pounds of my baby weight. When I got pregnant again, I just added more to that. It has been almost 6 years since I had my youngest, and I have added 38 pounds to my body from when I was in my early 20’s. That really hit me recently as we were buying new dresses for a Christmas party that is coming up. My girls were trying them on in the same room as me, and none of the dresses fit me. Or when they did fit me, I couldn’t believe the size it was. And I just looked lumpy.
From Left to Right: Before, During and After
My oldest daughter asked me what was wrong, and I realized that I was just unhappy with my body. I never slowed down enough to really take that into consideration until that day in the dressing room. I knew something needed to change, but I wasn¹t sure how I could do it. This is how I did it and here are the pics of me before during and after.
Losing 25 pounds was easier than I thought it would be. I ended up using a combination of 2 diet supplements that I saw on TV, I didn’t need a trendy diet to lose the weight. In the end all it took was a simple two-step process and it changed my life forever. After one week I had lost 5 pounds and now after one month, I’ve reached my goal and I feel great!
Step 1: Acai Berry Weight Loss Formula Free Trial
Step 2: Colon Cleanse Free Trial
All About My “2 Step Formula”
I wanted to try combining two products I had heard about to see if it could really work. After a little bit of research online I found that they were safe to use together and that they were two of the most popular products celebrities use to lose weight and keep it off.
I didn’t want to spend a fortune on these products so I did a little more searching on the internet to see if I could find them for cheap. I’m glad I did because I ended up finding free trials for both: the Acai Berry Weight Loss Formula and Colon Cleanse.
Here is how I used the two products together to lose weight.
Step 1: Acai Berry Free Trial
The Acai Berry Weight Loss Formula is the first and the most important part of my routine. I first saw Dr. Oz talk about the power of Acai Berry. CNN has also been talking about the berry a lot recently.
Acai Berry Weight Loss Formula and the Colon Cleanser helps me to:
- Regulate my metabolism
- Keep me from feeling hungry all day
- Gives me tons of energy to use with my little boys and husband.
- Losing weight by replacing coffee and soda, which also keeps my teeth whiter!
I was able to get a 30-day trial of the Acai berry formula online but the best part is that I only have to take it once a day, and then I am done!
Step 2: Colon Cleanse
Colon Cleanse is the second part of my routine. The Acai Berry Weight Loss Formula gives me extra energy, and regulates my metabolism while the Colon Cleanse:
- Gets rid of bad toxins that have built up over the years
- Removes inches of sludge from the walls of my colon
- Got rid of a few inches off my waist
- Lowered my blood pressure and cholesterol
Just like the Acai Berry Weight Loss Formula, I was able to get a free bottle of Colon Cleanse. I take the Colon Cleanse pill twice a day, once in the morning and once at night when I take the Acai. The combination is perfect, it helped me to lose weight and get rid of all the gross sludge from my system.
The Results of My Diet Routine
After only one month I’ve already lost 25lbs. You can read all about it too because I’ve blogged about my progress since I started using this simple ‘two-step formula’. My husband and kids are so proud of me and I’ve decided to keep going to lose another 10lbs because it’s so easy and effective.

I heard about a new diet that Ellen was talking about today, and my friend told me that Rachel Ray had brought it up too. I thought I should look into it, as that seemed like something that would probably work. I was going to check it out on my break at work, but Anna had a fever, so I had to go pick her up from school and take her to my moms house. I will check again when I have time later.

I had some free time on my hands at work, so I decided to search Google for the diet I was talking about earlier. Come to find out, its not a ‘diet’ per say, but actually a supplement that is all natural. I found a place that has free trials called Acai Berry Weight Loss Formula. Will write more when I get it in the mail. It should only take a couple days.

Just got it in the mail. I also ordered something called Colon Cleanse that had a free trial as well. I was planning on trying them together, and see if they work well. Hopefully they do! I am excited to see how this works out. I am going to take them, and I will write more about it later.

I feel great. I didn’t have a huge lunch because I wasn’t too hungry, but my energy is super high. I have tried other diet supplements before that have just made me feel hyper, and then I crashed. But this doesn’t seem to be working that way. I read that Acai is considered a super-food.

Its been a week since starting both products, and I decided to weigh myself. I lost 9 pounds! That’s more then a pound a day, and I haven’t had to change what I am eating or anything like that. I have noticed that I feel less hungry, but that is a side effect of the Acai berry.

It has been another week, putting me at 2weeks of using both supplements. I weighed myself this morning when I got up, and I had lost 10 pounds in this last week. So that is 19 pounds in 2 weeks. The best part of all is that I don’t feel hungry, or like I am starving myself. And I haven’t had to change my habits hugely to lose the weight. This is the easiest way I have ever found!

Took my girls with me to find a dress for the Christmas party next month. I was also thinking of wearing it for our family picture, which we have next week. I have gone down 2 full sizes! I can’t even believe it. I took the dresses into the dressing room, and they were way too big! I fit into them a couple weeks ago. The change has been amazing, and I am so glad I tried this.

Weighed myself a couple hours ago, and I have lost 25 pounds since starting the Acai Berry Weight Loss Formula and Colon Cleanse. It is incredible. I have never found anything that worked this well. I love that it is natural, and so good for you. I plan on losing about 10 more pounds, but even then, I am going to continue taking the Acai berry because it has so many antioxidants and vitamins in it. Even my skin looks better since taking it.

Happy New Year everyone! I wanted to check in with all of you after the holidays because it’s been almost 2 months since my last post. I’m still taking the Acai Formula and the Colon Cleanse and they are both working great! I’ve lost the last 10 pounds I was hoping for and most importantly, I’ve been able to keep the weight off. I’m so happy because for the first time in years, I’m not going to have to make a New Years resolution about losing weight. It’s nice to be able to start the New Year looking and feeling great. My family is so proud of me and what I’ve been able to accomplish, we’re all looking forward to a fantastic 2009.
If you are looking to lose weight, and don‘t know what to try next, or what will really work, try the Acai Berry Weight Loss Formula and the Colon Cleanse. Both have free samples, and you have nothing but weight to lose by trying them! Don’t waste another day being dissatisfied with your weight or how you look. You CAN change, it is possible!
After I bought my wedding dress of course I gained a million pounds. We put the wedding back a few months because I am determined to lose at least twenty pounds. I think I really found a solution to look good at my wedding. Thanks so much!!!!
It’s really brave of you to put this out for the public to see. You better believe I would never let anyone know what I weight right now. I really feel your pain, though. It’s so hard to lose weight on those crazy diets. Which I know because I’ve been there.
Sally, Good luck, girl, I know you can do it!
Jessica, I really just want to help people who are in a place that I understand firsthand. This was really it for me, and I hope it can be for others, too.
I heard something about a product that controlled your hunger being on Ellen. I’m so glad I know more about it now.. it’s really cool that it’s all natural, too.
I have some baby weight to get rid of. Is this stuff safe for someone who is breast feeding?
My wife tried this stuff first, and since I eat what she makes we ended up doing the whole diet thing together. I got my own trials, and I ended up losing fifteen lbs the first month. We joined a gym together too, because we had so much energy and needed to do something with it!
This is so crazy- I can’t believe you had all of that on your plate and you still managed to lose so much weight! Did the acai berry stuff really do all of that or did you work out too?
Jeannie, I’m not a doctor so I couldn’t say. It is all natural, but if I were you I’d check with your health professional.
Kelly, the Acai Berry routine really put my life into perspective. Once I realized how great it felt to be healthy, diet and exercise fell into place. It didn’t hurt that my energy levels were way up, either.
I am really at my wits end with dieting. I thought I couldn’t do it anymore, but this sounds like it could be worthwhile.
will this really work for anyone? a teenager? my grandma? my idiot brother?
I started eating acai berries 2 years ago, and a year since I’ve beent taking capsules. It really did change the way I think about food and diet. I used to eat whatever I felt like, but eating well and exercising makes me feel so much better than I ever did before.
Believe it or not I’ve been looking for samples of this stuff for a while and couldn’t find any in stock. Thanks for posting about this, Nadia.
haha Christine. My husband has been losing weight so far on the diet. So it works on guys also. I’ve also had comments from many older women who have been getting great results.
I like that it is all natural. And berries really are very very good for you. I’m going to try and lose as much as I can during the first 30 days!
Geez, Nadia, that is so great for you! It may sound strange, but I feel proud for you. You must feel so accomplished.
I think I am going to get my boyfriend to do this with me. Will it be different for guys?
Hi Jamie, I guess guys tend to lose weight a little easier. I know my husband is a bit of a bottomless pit who never seems to gain a pound. That’s probably the only difference. And Tanya, thanks! I really worked for it!
This sounds like it’ll be perfect for what I’m planning for my New Year’s resolution. That is, to lose 25 pounds! I can’t wait to get started.
Thanks Nadia. I saw it a while ago on the rachael ray show too but never followed it up. Just ordered both free trials for me and my other half. Good job!
