Weight Loss

Well i'm joining the wagon again! I am going to keep track of some of my progress HERE. I need a place to write things down so as not to get all confused. I am doing weight watches flex points right now. Haven't joined, wanna see how the points go for me...plus i'm poor and going to graduate school soon and $200 is a lot for me to fork over lol. Anddd i'm moving an hour away in the next few months so I'm hesitant to join up with a group here, only to sever those ties so quickly. I'm just hoping everything doesn't fall a part when I go back to school!

Do you need to lose weight? And need some money?

I was introduced to this great website, http://www.wellness360.com/ , where you fill in info all about your health history, family history, fitness, and nutrition. They help you track everything from your weight and measurements, to your exercise and the foods you eat, to your medical conditions. THey also provide some great health and fitness articles that are pretty intestings. Oh, AND they have videos showing all different excercises, which is great because I never know what to do.

BEST PART. You get PAID for doing all this! YES. Everything you fill out, read, click on, you get paid. After spending about 2 hours on the site I was up to $6!! You need to reach $25 in order to cash out-but believe me, you can easily reach that! And they are LEGIT, they pay out or I wouldn't post this.

Skin MD Natural

I have one word for this product-WOW!

So I recieved my sample bottle of Skin MD Natural, Shielding Lotion in the mail last week. I was on my way out the door (to a grad school meeting) but just had to try my new product before I left. I opened it up, read the papers that accompanied it, and decided to use a little. They aren't kidding, a little really DOES go a long way! A bottle of this stuff will really last you for a while. So, I squirt some out and rub it into my hands. WOW. This lotion goes on so thin and smooth, it almost feels like water...not thick and goopy like some lotions can be and it was rubbed into my skin within seconds. I hate lotions that just sit on your skin and prevent you from touching anything for like 5 minutes-you don't have that problem with this lotion! This product made my hands feel SO soft and silky immediately! You know how you imagine a woman's hands should feel...this is how they felt! So I was definately impressed right away.

Later that night I used it again, and then used it every night for the next week. I used it on my hands, face, legs, hah I tested it all over. I used it on my arms, where I have keratosis pilaris which is basically dry skin that doesn't sluff off and builds up in bumps on your arms (more than 50% of the population has this to a varying degree). Anyway, at the end of the week my arms were definatly looking better! Now i'm not stating that this product will cure this condition but it definatly helped and really moisturized. I also had my mother try this because she is a dental hygentist and uses rubber gloves day in and day out which leaves them extremely dry and cracked. I had her try some and she too loved it! She couldn't believe how much it moisturized and how soft her hands felt (her hands are always dry and rough). She now keeps stealing my sample to use!

This lotion is different than most. That's because this is actually a shielding lotion. These are different than traditional lotions in that they adhere to the skin and protect it from the environment and elements, and basically forms a shield around the hand. So it not only moisturizes your skin but keeps that moisure in with the sheild, and keeps harmful products out-like hand sanitizer, cleaning solutions, drying soap, etc. I totally believe in this product, I have never had a lotion feel and work like this has!

If you'd like to look into this product further, you can visit their website by clicking HERE

You can also order your own bottle on the website. If you're not fully convinced, you can order a free sample and see how great this stuff is yourself! Click HERE to check it out!

They have great people working for them, which is hard to find in this day and age. If you have any questions about their product, feel free to contact them!

Relay for Life

Cancer SUCKS!!!! I'm walking in Relay for Life on June 6th and would LOVE if you could please help us to raise money to help beat cancer. So far my team has raised almost $3,000...and we need $500 more to reach our goal. Please, even if you only have $1 to spare, that dollar is going towards a great cause. As some may know, last year my aunt and my cousin's husband were diagnosed with cancer with a couple weeks of each other. My aunt had throat cancer and my cousins husband had colon cancer at age 38-which is rare to get so young. Cancer can happen to anyone, at anytime,and thanks to some great advancements in medicine, both my relatives are cancer free and doing well today!


Here is my page to donate

Thank you for anyone who can spare some change to help beat cancer!

Relationships are hard work, we all know that. How do you get through the harder times? How do you get over the fights, or even better, prevent them? How do you make a relationship work?
