PRETTYFIT All Natural Whey Protein Powder Review

December 2, 2015 By Marijean

I am always looking for ways to maintain my weight and to have lean muscle. I have tried protein shakes in the past, but notice that most are filled with sugar, calories and ingredients that I have a hard time trying to pronounce. I was asked to do review on PrettyFit 100% All natural protein powder, and was excited to try it.

This Whey protein powder is 100% all natural. Right away I think this is great. I can pronounce and understand all of the ingredients on the package, and know what I am putting in body. It is only 100 calories and is sugar free. This powder is also Gluten free, and GMO free. What more could you ask for in a protein powder?!

I got to try the natural vanilla flavor and the natural chocolate flavor. It calls for 8-12 oz of water or preferred beverage. I mixed the Vanilla with water and tried the Chocolate with chocolate almond milk. I mixed both with my Ninja blender, but you can also use a shaker cup or blender cup. The consistency came out very smooth after I blended, and it tasted great! The chocolate was a bit sweeter due to the chocolate almond milk I added. I bet this would be good with fruit as a protein smoothie as well. I am looking forward to trying different options.

This protein powder is a great for women who are looking to lose some weight, maintain their weight or just to lead a healthy lifestyle. The taste is the best I have found out of all the powders I have tried, and I love that it is all natural. I definitely recommend trying it!

TEEBLOX, A Monthly Subscription of Gamer and Geek Tees @teeblox #teeblox

December 1, 2015 By Marijean

My husband loves T-Shirts. He wears them everyday, all the time. He likes to wear ones with saying on them, and pictures. When I heard of TeeBlox, a monthly t0shirt subscription service, I thought this would be a great gift for him.

This subscription service is for Women and Men. First, you choose your theme. Here are the themes you can choose from: I’m Feeling Lucky TeeBlox – a random selection from one of our existing TeeBlox categories (Games, Movies & TV Shows, Beer & Liquor, and more).
Game TeeBlox – a curated selection from classic 90’s games to today’s top rated games.
Movies & TV Shows TeeBlox – a curated selection from today’s hot TV Shows
Beer & Liquor TeeBlox – a curated selection from famous beers and hard liquor.

Next, choose your size. Sizes range from S-2XL (all sizes are same price). After this, you enter your billing/shipping information and you are done. The monthly price is $9.99, and is auto renewing. However, you can cancel at anytime. Shipping is a flat rate per month of $2.50. If they send you the same shirt that you currently have, you can send it back and they will send you out a new one free of charge.

I ordered my husband the Beers & Liquors Blox. It came with much more than just a T-Shirt, and included a lot for only $9.99!

Here is what he received:

Size XL Corona T-Shirt
Superman pin
Marvel comic book
Gemma Atkinson poster
Assorted stickers

Items that arrived in my TeeBlox

Corona T-Shirt

The shirt runs true to size, and the quality is excellent. It isn’t very thin, and wears very nice. My husband washed it and it came out looking good. He loved the assorted super hero stickers, comic book, poster and pin as well. It was a nice surprise for him, and I think he will definitely enjoy receiving this each month.

I think this would be a great birthday or christmas gift for someone in your life who loves t-shirts, and getting a new package in the mail every month. It is very affordable, and for what you receive in the box, you cannot beat the price.
