Weight Loss Challenge

So I stepped on the scale today and I had a little victory dance! :) January 1st I was 122 pounds and this morning I weighed in at 118.5. :) I am making healthy choices and working hard at the gym. I FEEL GREAT! I know some of you see that number and think I wish I was that number. The truth of the matter is it is just a number. I am a very short women and I may weigh less now then when I got married but the body is still not like it used to be I am trying to firm up the middle, and tone the legs. I still have lots of baby fat to loose! I put the number on here to help keep me accountable and not to make anyone stumble in jealousy or anger.

Today I challenged myself to run a 5K and beat my time from last year-- SUCCESS! I did it in 27 minutes and 30 some odd seconds. :) WOOT!

Like I mentioned before I am being honest here in my weight and my struggles for the whole world to see!

So what struggles did I have this week? Food! I was with teens on Saturday and they eat anything and everything but I did not fall into temptation eating all the junk. :) YAY! I really feel like the devo I have been using on youversion.com has been helping- Look up the devotional Made to Crave. Helps change your perspective each day! :)

How is your health? Ready for a challenge?

Knot Genie Review and Giveaway

If you have a little girl and have not heard of the Knot Genie then you need to watch the following video: "The Knot Genie™ and Teeny Genie™ Detangling Brushes were created for every mom that has endured the foot stomping and screaming matches that come with brushing their child's hair. With the Knot Genie, even the curliest, most knotted up hair practically slips through the unique bristle configuration – gently and painlessly. Try the Knot Genie on your kids (or on yourself) – you'll be amazed by the ease of brushing, as well as how it virtually stops breakage and split ends. You've wished for hair brushing standoffs to end. Wish granted." My Review: Thanks to the Knot Genie for sending me the product to conduct my review. I was not paid for this review and all opinions expressed are 100% mine. I know I have grown so tired of my daughter coming to tears every morning when we did her hair. I was becoming to think she was the most

Dry Idea: Deodorant Review and Giveaway

I know most of you know I was at kids camp last week and I think I mentioned the humidity and heat that we had that week! I was daring as I only brought my new Dry Idea deodorant that I had never used prior. I had no idea if it was going to keep me from smelling like B.O or if I was going to have sweaty pits. So how did the Dry Idea hold up to the hot and humid days at kids camp??? Arms raised high during worship in the morning and in the evening! :) I was dry and I did not stink! :) WOOT WOOT! I had the unscented brand and I usually do prefer a pretty scent but it worked and they do have scents which include powder fresh and cotton dry that I might try in the future. :) The Dry Idea Roll-On is 24 hour protection, fast drying MicroCotton Formula, hypo allergenic, and contains Vitamin E. :) Don't like roll on's?? They do offer Clear Gel and an Invisible Solid. :) Dry Idea provided a free sample of their Advanced Dry roll-On so I could review them. However,
