Fit For Disney Update

Back at the beginning of May (May 9th to be exact), I embarked on a "Fit for Disney" journey.  Fast forward just over a month and here are my results:

Did I lose any weight?
Sadly, no - in fact I actually gained a couple pounds - granted I didn't change my eating at all while using the products.

What do I think of the products?
First the Women's Lifestyle Capsules

This is your standard B-complex vitamin with added Minerals, Plant Extracts, Anti-oxidants, Enzymes, Pro-Biotics, and Amino Acids.  A box of 30 envelopes, each containing 2 capsules is $74 USD.   I had no adverse reactions from these vitamins but didn't feel they did anything special.

Next is the Lifestyle DFT-DUO patches.  There are 30 patches in a package and each patch splits into 2 patches - one for your left side, one for your right.  Ingredients are listed below:
I honestly didn't see any advantage using these patches, and often found my skin would itch after removing (you are supposed to wear them 24 hours) - and sadly didn't stay on in the shower.  Cost is $88 per package of 30 patches.

Would I repurchase these products?
Nope.  While I like the convenience of the pre-packaged envelopes of the Women's Lifestyle capsules, the $74 price tag isn't to me.  They really don't contain anything special and you could easily purchase similar vitamins for less money.  As for the DFT-DUO patches, they did absolutely nothing for me, so sadly I won't be repurchasing either of these products.

Interestingly, since finishing these products about 2 weeks ago, I have actually lost over 5 pounds - and hopefully will continue to lose more over the next 3 weeks.

First Impression - Ancestry DNA vs MyHeritage DNA Kits

As an only child, I've always been curious about my genetic genealogy and ethnicity, especially on my mother's side of the family.  I am very lucky as my father had meticulously researched the genealogy for his side of the family (before the internet no less) and because of his efforts, I can trace our roots back to Alsace, Germany. Unfortunately family on my mother's side never really discussed their ethnicity or genealogy and I just assumed that they were either Ukrainian or Romanian.  Sadly there are no longer any living relatives on my mother's side that I can ask, so I decided to do the next best thing and do one of those fancy DNA tests they advertise.  But which one? As with any industry that has become popular, especially quickly, there are the front runner companies you always hear about - Ancestry, 23andMe and another I recently came across MyHeritage. Pricewise, MyHeritage is the cheapest at $99, Ancestry is next at $129 and then 23andMe at $249 (prices q...

A Further Update on Ancestry DNA vs MyHeritage DNA Kits

I posted an update on my Ancestry DNA vs MyHeritage DNA kits on May 28th, however, feel I need to post another update as an issue has come up with the MyHeritage kit. My test was sent back to MyHeritage on May 8th, and since I had not heard from them that they received my test, I sent a message to MyHeritage on May 23rd to get an update as to the status of my test.  This was the test that was sent from Canada to Texas so it should have been received within a week (give or take a day) - the test sent from Canada to Ireland arrived within a week. Sadly I never received any reply, however, noticed when I logged into the MyHeritage website on May 26th, my test had been marked as received on May 25th.  I found this very interesting. Fast forward to a few days ago to when I received an email from Paypal indicating that a refund had been completed by MyHeritage on June 5th.  What the heck??? Sure enough, I logged into the MyHeritage website and all signs of my DNA test ...
