The saying goes 'sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me', but when Natalie, age 24, was heckled on holiday it left her depressed and reclusive.
Looking forward to a girly holiday to Majorca with her closest friends, Natalie was on a high. However, things quickly turned sour. The daily routine of squeezing into a bikini or tiny summer dress became torturous next to her slimmer, prettier friends.
Instead of bonding with her friends, Natalie felt isolated by her weight and excluded from the attention her friends were getting.
The final straw came on a night out when some drunk lads heckled Natalie and her friends. They shouted 'fitties!' at the group, but then one cruel clubber shouted 'apart from the heifer in the orange!' – directed at Natalie.
Devastated, Natalie was heart-broken. All she wanted to do was go home and hide under a huge jumper. As a result, the holiday was ruined and Natalie refused to leave the house for the remainder of the holiday. Hiding under a duvet crying, she couldn't dismiss the comment like her slimmer friends could.
But worse was to come. When she returned to the UK and saw the holiday snaps, she spiralled into depression. With the holiday images posted on Facebook by friends, Natalie was devastated that the whole world could see her as a 'heifer'.
She refused to go out with her friends again until she had lost weight. Throwing herself into work and keeping a photo (from the night she was heckled) on her desk as inspiration, Natalie was determined to lose weight.
Almost socially reclusive, weight from boozy nights and eating out quickly dropped off. She also cut back on portions and carbs. Any time Natalie felt temped, she would look to her holiday snap for inspiration.
Crisps were a real diet-breaker for Natalie, especially for desk-side snacking. For the occasional crunchy slip-up, Natalie uses BioCARB, a 100% natural carb-blocker as an added diet boost. BioCARB blocks the amount of carbohydrates metabolised by the body, and therefore reduces the amount of calories absorbed from British staples such as white bread, pasta and potatoes.
Natalie has now lost an astounding four stone, which has transformed her whole body and confidence. She's now more than happy to be pictured with friends and is back to her sociable self. Most importantly, Natalie's extra confidence has attracted a new boyfriend who loves her for the way she is.

How does Biocarb work?
Biocarb contains the innovative new complex called PhaseLite. PhaseLite works to prevent carbohydrate digestion, and when this happens, fewer carbohydrates are digested and broken down into glucose to be absorbed within the body. These undigested carbohydrates are then instead excreted in the stool.
Carbohydrates provide an essential source of energy to our bodies. But over indulging on any foods, especially starchy carbohydrates such as bread, potatoes and pasta can be a major cause of weight gain.
A diet rich in carbohydrates can disrupt the balance of the body's blood sugar level, which results in changes in energy and mood. Biocarb can also help even out these energy spikes and slumps, which in turn will boost your willpower to succeed.
Biocarb helps to fight the effects of a carb-rich diet when combined with a reasonable approach to eating and undertaking exercise.
Why take Biocarb?
Carbohydrates are an ideal energy source when eaten in the right proportions. They appear as two types (both starchy and sugary), otherwise known as complex and simple carbohydrates. Both types of carbohydrate occur naturally but also in processed foods. To undertake a healthy diet, being selective in choosing those carbohydrates we eat is paramount.
As a rule, complex carbohydrates provide a slower and more sustained release of energy than simple carbohydrates. So it is the natural starchy carbohydrates that play a key role in good health and in dealing with your appetite and energy levels.
Refined and sugary (simple) carbohydrates are converted into glucose much more quickly than complex, which cause significant blood sugar peaks, followed by an unavoidable low which can lead to hunger pains and mood swings.
Carbohydrates explained:
• Natural sugary carbohydrates are found in fruit & vegetables
• Refined sugary carbohydrates include biscuits & fizzy drinks
• Natural starchy carbohydrates include brown rice & brown bread
• Refined starchy carbohydrates include white rice & white bread
The body uses these natural & refined carbohydrates in different ways
All carbohydrates are broken down by the body into glucose which is then converted into energy. The most important thing about carbohydrates is the rate at which it is digested, and the slower the rate, the better, as this leads to more stable energy levels and fewer hunger pains.
However, excess glucose is also stored in our liver or fat tissue for later use. So if we consume more food than we need throughout the day, this extra energy will continue to be unused and can lead to weight gain.
Biocarb is therefore ideal for over indulgent carb eaters as it reduces calorie intake of both simple & complex carbohydrates and thus helps to minimise food cravings.
