Here goes my pedometer results. I borrowed this from a friend and omg I love it! Here is just a taste of what I have done today :)
Workout Tip Starts Today!
That is right. I am starting today with 1 fitness tip a day for 30 days:)
Tip one: Awesome music!
You read that right. Put on some awesome music that has a beat to it and watch what happens. If it is a beat you like, you will catch yourself moving to the beat even while sitting. Guess what, your burning calories! Especially if you engage your abs as you are moving to the beat. I actually sit in a rocking chair and rock to the beat as I am listening to the beats. Today I have put together an awesome workout playlist to make you move in your seat. All of them are by women and are motivational for any situation you are in. From losing weight to personal issues. All will keep you moving and without even thinking about it, you will be moving and burning cals :)
I would recommend getting something like Spotify. It is free and lots of great music on it!
Great cd to get is 100 #1 Workout HITS! Vol.2
It has songs like:

MPG MAT REVIEW!!!
Sunday, January 27, 2013
Yep thanks to the awesome people over at MPG, I have the pleasure of reviewing one one awesome yoga mat! This Yoga Mat is thick and with me being use to working out on the floor, this is wonderful! It is black on one side and the other is a beautiful light blue. Which you guys know me I LOVE blue! Exp. baby blue like this mat has. I found myself pushing myself even harder than I was before. I found myself saying, "I Can't do this.... What am I saying of course I can do it! Get your big butt in gear and get to working" I pushed an extra 5 min till I just couldn't anymore :) I love this mat! It is wonderful! I really do recommend you getting one of these! I have seen short Yoga mats that you spend half of your workout off the mat. Not with this one! It is a full length mat! Thank You so much MPG for giving me the opportunity to use this wonderful Product of yours! If you would LOVE to get one of these awesome mats for yourself for $47, make sure to visit MPG by clicking the Top Picture! Trust me, You WILL NOT be disappointed!

XOXO Pink Review!!
That is right! I am doing a pink review! I love pink and blue and when I came across this awesome Racer back bra that of course is hot pink! To add to it... It was $3.. Hey Ho! YAY! I couldn't pass the deal up. I got it at Ross! But it is comfortable and I admit... I had to do a jump test in the dressing room ;) The girls didn't pop out or hurt so it was a winning PLUS!
I needed to get use to it as I am not use to the Racer Back between my shoulder-blades. But after about an hr of wearing it and a little bit more of a workout...... I am in love with this. The material on the girls are a little thin and it does keep rolling a bit under the arms but for the most part it is comfy.
It is a little smaller than the normal bra's I have been wearing so that means I have lost some of the back boobs. Which makes me want to work out even more to lose even more weight :)
Mud Run and Rant!
Friday, January 25, 2013
Ok guys I am adding LOTS of pink in this post cause I have some awesome news! I got the ok to do the Dallas Texas Pretty Dirty 5k Run/Walk!!!! Yay it is awesome news!!! I am going to hold him to it on letting me go! I am not doing it to win it but I am doing it to finish it! So I can tell myself and my children " I did it. I completed a 5k and I will do whatever it takes to make sure me and my family are healthy and would love to do it again" I am working to a goal of doing 5, 5k's in 5 years and a healthier me buy this time next year.
Now the hard part.... Costumes! I have read about the run that they also award for the most creative costumes. Well, I would LOVE to win that! I know it is hard with hubs not being 100% on board with it and me going to have to look for free clothes to wear for it but whatever I get, I can try to add to it to make it Fabtastic!!! After talking to a few who have done this run before, I know I need to STAY AWAY FROM COTTON!!! SO I am looking for some shorts or capris with a wicking top for me to wear. I was thinking also of wearing pink but I really am not picky as I will wear what I can get! Like my mom says.. beggars can't be choosers.
I would absolutely LOVE to get down and dirty in this run. I mean I am a country girl so mud is second nature to me. It, to me Is better than one of those expensive mud baths and facials that people pay much money on. Shoot, It is free and if it was bad for you, I would be dead already lol.
Today was an awesome day! I walked to the school and back to get my kids with my son on my back. As we walked I would bounce up and down to the bunny hop dance lol. I bet I looked goofy but he loved it! He would even go " GO MOMMY GO, GO MOMMY GO!!!" It made me want to do more :) My husband n the other hand.... Not so much. He tried to say this afternoon that he don't think I should go to the run due to the fact that I can't take the kids with me on the run. SO one of the girls that wants to go with me, and will drive me up their, volunteered her husband to watch my kids. Then he was like, "IF I pay this fee, I wont be able to buy you anything to wear for it. I also won't be able to give you any money to buy anything while you are up their" So it seems he is trying to talk me out of doing it! I am not gonna let that stop me. I am going to look around and try to find any that someone is giving away or IF I have to, I will wear cotton and jeans if I have to. I will not let him make me feel horrible for trying to do something good for me! It is time for me to hold my head up high through the storm ahead and tred on!

Muti vitamin help!!
Wednesday, January 23, 2013
Ok First off, I have a really high iron level so I was told to get a multivitamin that has no iron in it . Levels are norm around 19. I use to take women's one a day active matabolism with no issue but due to my iron levels I was told to stop :( I have tried prenatals, I have tried centrum and even the equate vitamin all of them make me throw up. I take them with food so I shouldn't be throwing up. Now I am trying the Alive! women's 50+ and it still makes me throw up. I can hold down the fish oils perfectly but when it comes to the multivitamins.... my body isn't having it :( Even the flinstones make me throw up. Can someone please HELP!
