Other people besides my close friends and family have begun to notice my weight loss. Getting remarks and question about it makes me feel good and proud, because even though it has been difficult at times, Nutrisystem and its meal plan has given me the ability to pull it off. I came in at 231 pounds this week, which is an amazing sight to me. My initial goal of being at 230 lbs by the end of May is in reach. I have also past the half-way point of ...

Gardening Mama 2: Forest Friends for Nintendo DS is Out!
Do you have a Cooking Mama game fan at home? I do! My oldest daughter loves playing Cooking Mama with hubby on the weekends- it is their way of bonding and despite it being a video game, I feel that she learns so much from it. For starters, she learns important life lessons like taking turns and individual choices. She also gets to see an animated version of what goes on in the kitchen while my husband explains the different roles of each ...
Week 7 Nutrisystem Weigh in #NSNation #sponsored
This week was a tough one. The main reason was I had a busy weekend involving going out and also having a BBQ at my house on both Saturday and Sunday. I tried to eat sensible on both days but I can’t lie…I definitely overdid it with food those two days. I felt really bad and decided to weigh myself on Tuesday just out of curiosity and to my dismay I actually gained two pounds! I decided to continue on with even more motivation considering that I ...

Beautiful Hair, Skin, & Nails in Time for Summer with #PuritansPride
Nearly 2 years ago I chopped off a good amount of my hair. I found the post-pregnancy hair shedding to be excessive and I thought cutting my hair short would help ease the stress from watching all that hair pile up in the drain. A few months later I went back to my hairdresser and complained that I wish I had my long hair back. She suggested I take Biotin and felt that it "really worked" to build stronger, healthier hair and nails. I didn't try ...
Setting New Fitness Goals With iBitz @BestBuy #ibitzatBestBuy
Keeping active is getting easier now that the weather is finally cooperating. I just started an exercise regimen and my husband has started a weightloss meal plan, so together we are both trying to live healthier and eat better. I noticed that while working out, I would be able to stay motivated longer (I really hate working out) when I was able to track my progress. In my social media feed I see so many people keeping track of their calories ...
Adorable New Spring/Summer Shoes from #ClarksKids
The weather is really teasing us here in NYC. Is it going to stay warm? Is spring here to stay? I guess inevitably the weather will get better, even though it doesn't feel that way at the moment. Spring (or whatever this is) will turn to summer, and we will finally be able to wear short sleeves and get rid of the jackets. Oh, and let's not forget sandals! It's time for some new footwear for the spring/summer months! While I feel that I can ...
