I made my goal!

I never thought I'd say this but I finally hit my goal weight... & then some!!!! 23 lbs to be exact. I wasn't going to post these pics on my blog but I decided to so that everyone can see it can be done & if I could help even one person be motivated to set goals, it's worth it! I learned a ton about myself through out this experience. I learned that I could push myself to do things I would have never imagined doing even 6 months ago. After my having my 4th child, I never thought I was gonna be back to my old self, EVER. I started working out like crazy and completely changed my eating habits. I wanted to prove to everyone that you can be lose baby weight! I now weigh less than I did when I got married. I've never felt better & I even decided to become a personal trainer along the way... that's my next goal... so be prepared to hear more from me on that subject;) What are your goals & how can I help? Need some help getting started?  Or suggestions?... Shoot me an email!

Be jealous of my SIGG...


This past weekend I was at a convention with thousands of people walking around with water bottles.  Literally the garbage cans were over flowing with them. There was probably 5 plastic bottles in the garbage for every person there after the convention was over. I was pretty proud that I wasn't having to contribute the to excessive amount of water bottle garbage, thanks to SIGG!  I'm diggin the new designs and ALL the style options.  I think the one I ordered, Peace & Harmony is pretty sweet!... And so did everyone at the convention, I had so many compliments on it. But if you're looking for something a little more manly or something a little more simple, there's over 100 to choose from.  Check them out & start reducing water bottle waste!

Well hello eyes, where have you been all my life?


I'm not one to wear a ton of make-up, I usually wear the essentials to get by. Partly because I really don't know how to apply it all that great but mostly because I hate the way it makes my skin feel... And then I was sent the Mixology Brown Eyes POP set! Just looking at it made me want to run to the mirror and try it out! Not only did I love how easy it was to apply but I was happy knowing it was all free of chemicals that would make my skin feel nasty.  I'll admit, that my eyes looked some much different, I was a little worried I looked funny... Until my friend stopped by and immediately noticed & said "Wow, your eyes look amazing!  Where did you get those colors!"  Since that day last week, my eyes have been sporting the POP collection & the compliments just keep coming! It's like they have been in hiding all this time lol... Check out the Mixology Collection HERE!

But WAIT! We have a GIVEAWAY!!!  Mixology has offered us 2 shadows and eye liner set! One winner will receive a Barista shadow, Soleil shadow and a Jet Liner :)

What a tease!

I've never really been too good at the whole back combing thing. My head usually looks a little lopsided whenever I make the attempt!! But last week when I was at the salon, my hair dresser pulled out a bottle of
Big Sexy Hair What A Tease  & holy moly it worked awesome!... And it doesn't make you look like your going to prom or that you have a "bump it" on the back of your head lol  It was just enough to give my hair volume it needs & it only took a few squirts! I love this stuff & it lasts all day! FYI, don't use it in the bang area, or you end up with 90's bangs... Unless of course, that's the look you're going for;)

Good. Clean. Food

I'm always checking out what my fav pro trainers are posting & one that I check out a lot is Kathleen Tesori! She posted about GO DOUGH awhile back, so decided I had to see for myself what these protein balls were all about. First thing I saw was "Good"... so I knew we were off to a good start:) I got even more excited to know they were gluten free! Having to go gluten free hasn't been easy for me, especially now while I'm training. But after one chocolate chip GO DOUGH ball I felt pretty satisfied. There's the perfect blend of protein, carbs and healthy fats to give you that extra energy kick you might need when you're working out hard. The only problem is, they're are only available at few store in Utah. So if you happen to live there check out the health food stores! Although, if you check out their Facebook page or blog & message them, they can assist you in ordering them online:) My fav was the chocolate chip but there's other great flavors as well!
