Purex plus Oxi Laundry Soap Detergent Giveaway / Review 3 Winners!

3 Boys,
3 Very Active Boys,
Equals.....
Tons and Tons of Laundry with Even More Stains!

Solution....
 
Purex plus Oxi - New Stain Fighting Liquid Detergent from Purex.

This new and Very Powerful detergent has exceeded my expectations.  I was amazing and pleased to learn that Purex plus Oxi works with over 101 different stains.  And I have the sinking suspicion that I will soon enough find the 102 stain it will help resolve.

The reason Purex's new liquid detergent battles so many different stains is because it contains 3 stain fighting enzymes.  Each of these enzymes work against different types of stains...so you get more stain fighting power in just 1 simple bottle.

Don't worry if you own a HE washer.  Purex plus Oxi like all the Purex products offered on the market today will work on both HE washers and traditional washers, like I have in my home.

Almost forget to mention Purex plus Oxi smells amazingly fresh and clean, while still being hypoallergenic.  AND you can use this detergent has a pre-treater too!  Just pour a little on your stains and rub it in.  Just let it sit a few minutes and then add it to your washer and get it started (don't forget to all your measurement of Purex plus Oxi to get your laundry nice and clean).

So who wants to win a coupon for a FREE bottle of Purex plus Oxi?  Enter below for your chance and Good Luck!

*Purex provided a free sample of their Purex plus Oxi laundry detergent so I could write a review and provided Free coupons for a giveaway. However, all of the opinions expressed here are my own.**

Week 20 Nutrisystem "First Skinny Fat Day" #NSNation

Week 20 - on Nutrisystem and I was shocked to experience my first "Skinny Fat Day".  I must admit it took me quite off guard.  I feel so great after being blessed with the Nutrisystem experience.  And especially after losing so much weight and finally being happy with the size I currently am...a 7/8!!
 
So here is what happened.  I worked out in the morning like I always do (and YES I still haven't missed a day of working out since starting the Nutrisystem program!) and ate my delicious Nutrisystem meals and the healthy add ins...and an extra apple and cup of Greek no fat yogurt.... Then I got dressed to do my second workout for the day after work.  I put on a workout shirt I have never been able to wear...but I can now!!!  The shirt fits great but is snug (it is a size small).  So with the shirt being smaller and snug...it showed off my little bit of extra around my mid-section..I know it is only a tiny little bit now!  And for whatever reason it hit me wrong...wrong...wrong.  
 
My first thought was...I look FAT!  Then I truly realized what I was thinking.  I was angry with myself for having that thought.  I have accomplished so much and I am very proud of my body...my work in progress.  I am beautiful even is my weight does fluctuate a little now an then. 
 
So here are my stats...what do you think?   
 
So at the end of week 20 I have lost a total of 36.5 inches!!!



Waist - Total lost 8.5"
Chest - Total lost 5.75"
Hips - Total lost 8.75"
Thighs - Total lost 9.5"
Upper Arms - Total lost 4"


 

Week 1 - lost 3.5 pounds
Week 2 - lost 3.5 pounds
Week 3 - lost 2.8 pounds
Week 4 - lost 1.6 pounds
Week 5 - lost 5.8 pounds
Week 6 - lost 3.5 pounds

Total Weight Loss So Far after 20 weeks on Nutrisystem

I vow this week to watch my water intake.  I know it has been dwindling.  And I think my weight gain was from more muscle mass, thanks to a new workout program I started 3 weeks ago.


Also.....I big welcome to the new Nutrisystem CEO, Dawn M. Zier!

Dasani Drops - Flavor Enhancer Review - *NEW*

How many of you get the recommended water intake everyday?  I think many of us do not.  And one of the biggest reasons, I believe is because water is so bland.  It is boring and not something many of us look forward to drinking.

But there is a new product out on the market today that will change your attitude towards drinking and enjoying water again.
 
Dasani Drops - Flavor Enhancer

I know there are many different flavor enhancers out of the market today, and I have tried many of them.  But Dasani has worked hard and went outside the box, when it comes to their flavor combinations.  They make it enjoyable to drink water again....flavored water!

Check out these unique and fun flavor blends offered from Dasani Drops:

Strawberry Kiwi, Mixed Berry, Pink Lemonade and Pineapple Coconut.

I was thrilled to learn there are zero calories in Dasani Drops...so go ahead and drink away.  You are able to customize how much flavor you add into your water, which I like.  So if you want a stronger flavor profile, just squeeze the bottle of little longer.

Keep an eye out for Dasani Drops in your local grocery store in the powdered drink aisle.

Thank you Dasani for creating a new product to add to your refreshing water. 

Don't forget to follow Dasani on Facebook and Twitter.

samples of this product to review, and I was under no obligation to review it if
I so chose. Nor was I under any obligation to write a positive review in return for the free product.

Gold and Silver Fever #spon

I had no idea the "rich" history of gold and silver.  I love hearing that silver is making a come back.  I love the idea of investing in gold bullion coins and silver coins, especially as unstable as the dollar can be.  As soon as I get the opportunity and funds I am going to look into this great find of the modern era.

Pine Bros Softish Throat Drops Review - Enter via Facebook to win $500 Gift Card to CVS Pharmacy


Autumn is upon us with Old Man Winter to soon follow.  Are you ready for all the cold weather?  How about the seasonal allergies and illnesses, like the flu and common colds?

I know I am, thanks to an amazing company that has been around since 1870!
 

It is hard to imagine a product surviving for over 140 years!  So, that must mean their Softish Throat Drops are doing something right!

I will admit I had never tried these Made in America unique throat drops until I was selected to review them...and they sent the most amazing box full of Softish Throat Drops.

Look at the great packaging....
Pine Bros. offer value size bags and convenient plastic "puck" containers full of 26 drops.  These containers have a twist on and off lid, which is perfect to put in your pursue and even in your car. 
 
I had the opportunity to sample the Wild Cherry and Natural Honey flavors from Pine Bros.  The Wild Cherry were may favorite.  But the Natural Honey tasted just like its name, pure and simple.
 
I now understand why these throat drops are called, "Softish".  I have never had another throat drop like these.  They are not hard and they are not soft, but they do last a very long while in your mouth.  They remind me of a gummy bear, but firmer like a piece of chewing gum.  But they work the best if not chewed.
 
I love that the active ingredient is glycerin.  So they are safe to use as needed.  They are perfect to use when you have a sore throat and even minor mouth irritations.

I am thankful that the creator and former owner of Airborne, Victoria Knight-McDowell has acquired Pine Bros.  Here is to a continued success of this American classic throat drop.  You can find Pine Bros. on these social media sites....Facebook and Twitter and Pine Bros. Softish Throat Drops are available nationwide at CVS Pharmacy. 

Speaking of CVS Pharmacy...don't forget to head on over on Pine Bros. Facebook page and ENTER TO WIN a $500 gift card to CVS Pharmacy.

Looney Tunes Personalized Children's Books Review


Are you a parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, friend or a person that has a special child in their life?
 
If you are, I have the perfect gift idea for you! 
 
Do you want to give a gift that you know will not be duplicated by others?  A gift that will turn into a treasured self-esteem builder and spark excitement about reading.
 
I have the perfect gift suggestion....how about personalized children’s books?
 
I was selected to review a great Looney Tunes Personalized Children's Book from KD Novelties.  I first must say I was amazing at how detailed the personalization was.  I was able to, of course have my child's name in the book, but it also incorporates details like hometown, state, 3 different friends or others, and even age if you would like.  You can even express yourself in a dedication included in the book.
 
Look at this example of the great and vividly colored children's books you could give as a gift. 
This is the personalized book I received to review.  I was thrilled as the quick shipping, especially since it was personalized.  It was very impressive.  And the quality of the book including the pages, illustrations, colors and cover were top notch. 
 
I do not have a single complaint.  I think my favorite part of these type of personalized books is that it makes children want to read.  It helps to build their self-esteem as they play a lead role in the book. 
 
In the great Looney Tunes Personalized Children's Book I received my son was the main character in the store.  He was able to go on an adventure to see the Wizard.  It was so much fun.
 
There is still plenty of time to order your kid's books today.
