GIVEAWAY TIME!!!! SMILE BRILLIANT

Hello Beauties!
So a lot of changes going on within this month and coming, I am still loosing the weight. It’s what some would call a slow pace, but I am happy with it. Why?? Because I am doing it the healthy way as it should be done. I completely cut out soda… Not even one at all. Now it’s only been two weeks since I started this diet and life change, but I did have to take some medicine at one point and took a sip of my mother’s soda. But let me tell you…. It was not satisfying at all. It was so bad…. It tasted like syrup and lots of sugar. To me it’s a good thing because I don’t crave it anymore. I do make sure to have a bottle of water with me at all times as it keeps me hydrated. As far as my food, I eat the same things I would but in moderation. Its never good to completely stop eating what you like, because once you reach your target weight and don’t diet anymore you will eventually go back to those things. So instead of packing all the weight back on challenge yourself to lower the intake of it and enjoy. You will be surprised you can still lose the weight.


Moving forward, I should be receiving my whitening trays in within a couple of days as well from smile Brilliant. Remember you can also enjoy the fitted trays and get great results. They have a warranty of 2 years too! So lets say you lose a tray, break one or want a new set at some point. All you have to do is contact them within the 2 years and you will get a replacement. The 2 year tray replacement warranty is about 730 days and it begins with the initial order date. The cost for the replacement is only 19.95 + shipping. US shipping fees are $4.95 and international customer shipping fees are $9.95. Molds are kept on file for 2 years. They are so great they are allowing me to do a giveaway! This giveaway is live and once the winner is chosen, Smile Brilliant will provide me with a coupon code for the winner! Yay!!

DON'T FORGET THE GIVEAWAY LOCATED TO THE RIGHT SIDE YOU WONT WANT TO MISS THIS!!!

Also, here is a video that shows you more on what Smile Brilliant are all about! Remember you are saving soooo much more than it would cost at the dentist office!

Smile Brilliant - Teeth Whitening Trays







So, today is June 16, 2014 and Billy, Susan and I just received or e-mail that stated our impressions made it back to the clinic and they are working on creating them. We should receive them within 3-7 business days. We received the impressions kit on June 12th and mailed them off the next day. So with that being said, I am very pleased to see how fast Smile Brilliant works as this is another sign of impressive customer service. I have to say I haven’t seen a company with great customer service in a long time. However, when I came across Smile Brilliant I went to do some research on their site. They had a message box pop up letting me know a customer service representative was there if I had any questions. In the process I did speak to them to find out more information and they were very helpful and nice. I then spoke to Mike with the company and he also helped me in the process of my order. I am VERY pleased with the company from the start.

Moving forward, the night we took our kits out and created our impressions. It was an interesting task in itself. Billy did great with his impressions as it took him one try on both top and bottom trays. I also had luck on my side with only doing the impressions once. However, Susan …. Not so much. It wasn’t that it was hard or that she messed them up horribly, she was trying to be too perfect LOL. Needless to say, we finally all finished the impressions, filled out our information card and once we let them set and harden we placed them in the enclosed envelope to mail back.

The great thing about the company is that they are saving you so much money and giving you a quality teeth cleaning that you would receive from the dentist office home whitening kits. At the dentist you are looking at a $600+ cost for teeth whitening trays and you have to schedule an appointment, go in have them clean your teeth, create your impressions and then wait to receive your trays. With Smile Brilliant it only costs $129. No dentist appointments needed, brush and floss your teeth, take your impressions, mail them back to the company and then wait to receive your trays. How simple is that and how amazing is the price? The kits are the exact same…. So now you really know where the majority of your money goes for teeth whitening trays from your dentist.

If you want an update on our progress and would like to see how well Smile Brilliant works stay tuned! I am also going to list information on the site if you would like to order yours as well. I was also given a coupon code for all my beautiful followers to use and save money.
Below are also some pictures of the impression kit you will receive!


Picture One - The Packaging:
The packaging of your impression kit is so sleek and beautiful. If you have seen their packaging in the past it was a black little envelope. Now its a cute little box which holds all your supplies neatly in their own little compartments.

Picture Two - The Inside Packaging:
The inside packaging shows the separate compartments which hold each piece. Behind the products, you can see all the paperwork which includes instructions on how to create your molds and the index card that you fill out with all your information to send back with your impressions.

Picture Three - Whitening Gel:
The teeth whitening gel is 22% Carbamide Peroxide which is a dentist quality teeth whitening gel.





Picture Four- Impression Tray:
Here is a close-up of what the impression tray looks like. Once you mix the catalyst paste and the base paste together you roll it out and place in the tray.






Picture Five- Smile Brilliant Whitening Tray Kit:
Here is a close-up of what  you receive in your kit in order to create your impressions.

"Failure is the opportunity to begin again more intelligently"



 

"Its time..... I'm going to lose weight and it starts now. I can't fit into my jeans... there too tight."

Of course most of us have been here.... We tell ourselves and others that we are going to lose the weight, no more eating out and no more this and that. Some of us actually do it; while others struggle with this. It's not that they don't truly want to lose the weight, it's just hard. In today's world we are all faced with challenges of our own. We have that one craving that always breaks us. It takes us a few times to really focus on what we want. 

Like for me.... I have tried the diet thing more times than I can count. However, there was a point back in 2009 where I finally put things in to action. I cut out all soda products, ate smaller portions, and I worked out 2-3 times a week if not more. I lost 50 pounds within 6 months by doing this. I was so proud of my accomplishments. But of course through the years I lost the motivation to continue. Well, I wouldn't say the motivation.... just the lack of actually counting the calories and continuing my workouts. In 2012, I had to have surgery on my knee due to a softball size tumor that had grown. By the blessing of God, it was non-cancerous. However, I was not able to workout and was in bed for a few weeks with minimal movement and no workouts at all for a few months. With that being said, this led me to gaining more weight than I should have.

Now, that is the past for me and I don't want to look back at it. I want to look to see what my future holds. So, with that being said, I am starting over. I have been on my diet now for a full week and have not touched a soda product nor have I made bad choices in eating. The workouts are starting back up and I have even found ways to make it more interesting.... Adding fun to your workout is always good. So with that I will leave you with one recommendation to check out. And you can do this in the privacy of your own HOME... No worries about being in front of someone.... So sorry ladies that excuse won't work anymore. :)
