I was recently invited to try out Group Story. Group Story is a website that allows people creating a photo book have having everyone join a group and upload pictures. You can then choose which pictures go into the book, the page layouts, and even add text. When it's completed, everyone in the group can order one. The concept of the site is wonderful, and I was really looking forward to creating a book of Hannah's first year. However, there were a few issues that spoiled some of the experience. The website itself is very easy to navigate and use. There are step by step instructions for the entire creation process, so you can figure out how everything works pretty quick. After I first set up my account, I uploaded a few pictures. Uploading was quick and easy, and you an label the pictures if you want. I didn't bother with it, and moved onto testing out the page creator...which is where I hit my first snag. The applet that runs the page creator does not work in Internet Explorer. ...

Postnatal Thermogenic for New Moms Review
I've spent the last week trying out Postnatal Thermogenic from Delta Labs. It's a postnatal weight loss supplement designed to boost your metabolism in order to help you loose any weight gained from your pregnancy. The pills contain no caffeine or stimulants, and has ingredients to help promote lactation. You take two pills a day; one in the morning and one at night. I was a little dubious about taking the pills at first. It's been over a year since I had Hannah and the majority of the weight I have now is excess fluid from the uterine infection, subsequent allergic reactions to medication, and having to take prednisone for 2 weeks. I didn't think it would do a lot of good, but I'm very surprised by the results. Almost immediately I noticed that my fingers weren't swelling up and I could actually get my wedding band on and off, which I've been having difficulty with since being on the prednisone. I also noticed that my pants were a a bit looser, showing that a lot of the ...
Product Review – Cardio Workout with Strength Exercises
I recently got a try out Cardio Workout by Rumi. It's a quick cardio workout routine designed to help you loose weight without time consuming sessions. The full video is about 30 minutes long. It has a four minute warm-up, twenty five minutes of exercise, and then seven minutes of cool-down streching. The workout itself is fairly simple and effective. I've done it a few times now and can already see a bit of difference. If you are completly out of shape, I would suggest that you start out with a small number of reps and work your way up. That way you will be able to better judge your progress. The workout can be a bit intense, so I also suggest that you have water readily available on hand. Overall, it's not a bad workout routine. It doesn't take long and you can adjust it to your needs. It can also get you on your way to being able to do longer and more strenus routines. You check out this and other workouts by Rumi, you can visit her website Women's Workout ...
Product Review – iCaughtTheEasterBunny.com
iCaughtTheEasterBunny.com allows you to place the Easter Bunny in any picture you might have. The site is part of the group that runs iCaughtSanta, which I reviewed last year. The site set up is exactly the same, except for the easter bunny. Once you upload your picture, you get to choose from several shots of the Easter Bunny. Once you find the one you want, simply adjust the size, color, and brightness. You can even rotate or flip it as needed. Once finished, you'll end up with a very convincing photo: Like their other sites, this is a wonderful idea if you have small children. The photos also make great gifts to friends and family. The cost is $9.99 and you can have them printed at various places. It's a great deal and sure to bring a smile to your child's face. To create your own, check out their website. I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe ...
Product Review – TShirtPrinting.net
TShirtPrinting.net sent me one of their t-shirts to try and review. The company is located in the UK, but I think that they do take international orders. Their pricing varies on a case by case basis, and is determined by type & quality, number of shirts ordered, the prints per shirt, and the amount of colors used. They sent me a gray shirt with their mascot printed on it. The cloth is a very nice quality. The screen printing for the mascot is excellent. Their shirt sizes run very large, however. I normally were a large, and even thought they did warn me about the sizing, I still went with a large just to be on the safe size. The shirt fits, but wears like an extra large. Their website is also very easy to navigate. Overall, I'm very impressed with their product. I will definitely consider them if I'm ever in the market for getting some t-shirts printed. If your interested in getting a price quote and/or ordering, can visit their website. I received one or more of the ...
Product Review – Neoteric Diabetic Advanced Healing Cream
I recently had the opportunity to test out Neoteric Diabetic Advanced Healing Cream. The cream is clinically proven to increase circulation and speed skin's healing by strengthening its own natural defenses. I had gestational diabetes during my pregnancy, and between it and the severe allergic reactions I had to medication immediately after the pregnancy, my feet got pretty nasty. The skin around my heels and my toes mounds (I had to look that up here) were yellowed and callused. The skin was also very dry. I used the healing cream for about two weeks. I put on a fair amount about twice a day, and noticed immediate results after the first day. My skin quality drastically improved and started to look normal again. When you use it, you want to put on a pretty good amount, and also make sure you use it several times a day. The more you use it, the better your skin will look and heal. You also don't have to use it just on your feet. I also used it on my elbows and got similar ...
