Weight Watchers: The Ultimate Weight Loss Cookbook

This post will be reviewing the ebook version of the Weight Watchers Cookbook

Find it here:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N3T0P17

I recently have lost over 35 lbs in a year.  Now it's easy to lose some weight but when you get to the plateau weight it can be hard to lose more even when you have more to lose.  I am always looking for any items or diets to help me get over the hump.  I decided to give this cookbook a try.

I received the eBook version & this version has 94 pages.  The book comes with 45 recipes which includes various recipes for Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner & Dessert.

The book has easy to follow recipes with common household ingredients; there may be a few ingredients that you have to pick up at the store but otherwise it is easy to come by ingredients.  There are NO going to the top of mountain to pick a rare type of mushroom like most cookbooks & recipes seem to have nowadays.

Reading this book I found the Pros of the diet is getting to eat whatever you want.  As long as it is portioned controlled & as long as you are aware of what you are putting into your body.

The diet says you will lose 2 pounds a week if you stick to the diet plan.  It works by giving you healthy choices to fill you up so you are likely to eat less.  When you are full with a healthy diet your desire to cheat become less likely.  The diet goes by points & gives you a link to calculate those points.

I'd recommend giving this eBook a try if you want to try a new option for losing weight.  What do you have to lose (besides time reading it & a few unwanted pounds)

I have to give this book 4 Paws out of 5.  I wish it would have included pictures of what the recipes look like and a few more recipes but for the price of the eBook I can't complain too much.  It gives you a jump start to eating healthy the Weight Watchers way!!  It's perfect for beginners!!

BazSport Tennis Elbow Brace

BazSport Elbow Brace

https://www.amazon.com/BazSport-Compression-Neemany-Alleviate-Injuries/dp/B01HIHI9P0/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1474921656&sr=8-1&keywords=bazsport

I've recently started to lift weights & with excessive use of muscles and joints I haven't used for awhile I do experience some pain in my elbows.  Of course I have an old school elbow brace, you know the one that seems to tighten up & cut off blood flow or that curls up and has you always pulling it up or down to fix it.  I was curious about this new design that is supposed to help tennis elbow, golfer's elbow or just general elbow pain.

The product claims it will take pressure off of the tendon.  The product is an adjustable small brace with a strap to size it to your perfect fit, it has a gel pad which feels weird at first but offers compression on your aches.  



I love the way this stays in position.  It doesn't slip & it doesn't get super tight - if it ever does all I have to do is make a simple adjustment.


It is definitely a improvement on the typical elbow brace.

This product not only comes with two elbows compression pads but also a stylish visor with the company logo. 


I give this product 4 paws out of 5 simply because I wish it expanded a little bit bigger, it's a tight fit to get in on my arms.  But the ease & not having my arm constricted too tight with regular braces and not having to constantly pull them up from where the regular brace curls makes it all worthwhile.  

I received this product at a discounted price for my honest review.

Over-Ear Bluetooth Headphone Wireless Sport Headset #Aposon

The Aulker Q7 Over-the-ear Bluetooth Sport Headset
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LZRTSYC

I'm big on tech & any tech that allows me to listen to my favorite tunes at the gym is something I'm definitely interested in.  I decided to give this over the ear headset a try.  It's bluetooth & I don't have to have an annoying wire connected to my phone.  No embarassing moments of the headphone jack slipping out & my music interrupting everyone else.












The box it comes in measures 4"tall x 5"wide x 2"thick.  It is packaged very nicely.  The USB charge in one part & the headsets in the other.  I was impressed how well package this was to prevent damage to the unit.  When I opened the box I found the headset earphones, a USB charger, a User Manual, and extra ear caps (4)   The user manual is in VERY small print & very difficult to read but that's about the only negative thing I found.













The headset is a nice size.  Not too bulky.  I tried connecting them & as long as I held them on top of my phone they easily were read on the bluetooth scanner. It even says you can pair these with two Cell Phones at the same time but I'm not sure why you would do that unless maybe your music is on one & you want to answer calls from the other? 
















Yes you can even answer a call, redial the last call, transfer calls between the headset & the phone and mute the microphone while you are on a call.  It explains it all in the manual.  I just thought I was getting these to listen to music, it was a welcomed surprise that I could take calls on these.

These are the specifications that it lists:
Specification: 
• Bluetooth: V4.1, Up to 33FT / 10 Meters 
• Water Resistant: IPX4- protected against splashing water from any angle 
• Battery Capacity: 110mAh 5V 
• Max Music Play Time: 8 H 
• Max Talk Time: 8 H 
• Charge Time: 2 H 
• Built-In Microphone: Yes 

The sound quality is amazing & there is no need to pump up the volume to hear your favorite tracks.  They play smooth, quality sound without having to adjust the volume past the default. 

I would give this headset 5 Paws out of 5 just based on all it can do, the sound quality, and the simplicity of not having to be plugged into your phone to listen to your music.  It is amazing in the gym, on a walk or while jogging.  A definite need for the person who is physically active & wants to connect to their music while having the option of taking or making calls.

I was given this product at a discounted rate for my honest review.  In NO way did it sway my decision into a positive one, the product did that all by itself.

Twod Hunting Rifle Bipod #RifleBipod

Twod Hunting Rifle Bipod - 9 Inch to 13 Inch Adjustable Super Duty Tactical Rifle Bipod + Rail Mount Adapter

Check it out here:








http://www.amazon.com/Tworld-Hunting-Rifle-Bipod-Adjustable/dp/B01FU826OO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&keywords=rifle+bipod
Another little gift for me.  I love anything for guns.  I decided to give this a try.

I was impressed at the heavy duty metal, how well-made this was, and how durable this was for the price.  It seems very high quality for the price.

Some of the features:
  • Quickly attach to or detach from the rifle using existing swivel stud.
  • Foldable arms with spring tension control. Come with the mount adapter.
  • Adjustable leg length: 5 settings for different length, the bipod is ready to meet your needs.
  • Made of hardened steel and aluminum, non-rust black anodized finish, the rifle bipod is duty and light weight.
  • Legs can extend from 9 inch to 13 inch and adjustable leg length (5 settings) with return springs.

I would give this 5 Paws out of 5 because I was impressed at the quality.  It seems very durable.  A fun accessory to add to your arsenal.

I received this product for a discount for my unbiased review.  The product earned the excellent rating NOT the discount.



Tworld Rifle Scope with Red & Green Dot #RifleScope

This is a post for the Tworld Rifle Scope


http://www.amazon.com/Tworld-Rifle-Scope-Tactical-Hunting/dp/B01G2EDVJO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&keywords=Rifle+Scope

I'm always looking for fun, new toys.  I never really had a high quality scope for my rifle so I decided to give this a shot.  I was looking for a good, quality scope on the cheaper side since I don't need to spend 100s of dollars since I'm not using it for anything but recreation.

When I got this the Package included the scope sight, an allen wrench to secure the sight onto a rifle, 2 scope caps covering the front & back of the scope, a battery (already installed for the laser guides) and a lens cleaner small cloth.  



The lens has super clearness when you look through it  and each click of one of the dials helps by having 5 brightness settings for each of the Red & Green sights



The product description is:
  • 10 levels of brightness.
  • Easy installation; secured by a built in mount.
  • Positive and precise 1/4 MOA for accurate, consistent shooting.
  • QD high mount fits all 11mm/20mm picatinny and weaver rails.

For the price this is exactly what I need & I love it!!  If you are just looking for a low cost scope that does what it's supposed to (don't get ideas that it does what higher price scopes do because you'll be disappointed) and to use for just basic recreational use then I would definitely suggest you give this a try.

I give this product 5 Paws out of 5 because it wasn't the cheap quality sights that are usually set at this price range.  This is clear, fun, and a great little scope

I received this product for my honest review.  The product led to a positive review NOT the discounted price.



Aulker BH01 Wireless Bluetooth Sport Headset #Aulker

I'm always looking for a way to listen to my music while I'm lifting weights at my gym.  I decided to give these over the ear headsets a try.  I don't like the headphones that connect to my phone because somehow they always come unplugged or the wires get tangled & eventually one side stops working due to loose wires.

These arrived in a little box measuring 2 3/4" tall by 3" wide by 1 1/2" thick. When I opened the box I found the headset earphones, a USB charger, a User Manual, extra ear caps (4) and even a clip to hold the wires together so you can fit them easily to your needs.



I tried connecting them & as long as I held them on top of my phone they easily were read on the bluetooth scanner.  If you are a little ways away from your phone it doesn't connect.  The manual says you have to be within one meter when pairing.  It even says you can pair these with two Cell Phones at the same time but I'm not sure why you would do that unless maybe your music is on one & you want to answer calls from the other?

Yes you can even answer a call, redial the last call, transfer calls between the headset & the phone and mute the microphone while you are on a call.  It explains it all in the manual.  I just thought I was getting these to listen to music, it was a welcomed surprise that I could take calls on these.

It even allows you to control your music without even having to touch your phone.  You can turn the volume up or down, play the last song or next song, and pause or play a song.

The specifications say talk time is 5 - 7 hours, 6 hour music time, standby time is 180 hours, and charging time is about 1.5 hours.  Not too bad but I don't know anyone who talks 7 hours in one shot.  It claims to be able to use these 33 feet away from you phone but I'm not quite sure how accurate that is, I don't know many people who leave their phone 33 feet away from them nowadays  :)

The sound quality is amazing & there is no need to pump up the volume to hear your favorite tracks.  They play smooth, quality sound without having to adjust the volume past the default.

I would give this headset 5 Paws out of 5 just based on all it can do, the sound quality, and the simplicity of not having to be plugged into your phone to listen to your music.  It is amazing in the gym, on a walk or while jogging.  A definite need for the person who is physically active & wants to connect to their music while having the option of taking or making calls.
