Disney on Ice – 100 Years of Magic

Months ago, I fully intended on attending Disney on Ice. I spent money on tickets and everything…and ended up not going. I was kind of sad about the whole thing. So, when I ran into Meghan Daly from Mom Central at BlogHer and she told me Disney on Ice was coming back to the Chicagoland area and would I like some free tickets to take my family,... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Month 6, Wk 26

Well, I have made it and I am still here, I have officially lost 25 pounds…I am thinking weight loss will be different for every one who uses Sensa (that’s just my personal opinion).  Its funny, but this kind of felt like a horse race…and she is off, rounding the corner with week 1 of Sensa, and look at that ladies and gentlemen, she... [Read more of this review]

Febreze Flameless Luminary – Smells Good, Looks OK

Today a box showed up at my door. Always excited at seeing a box on my doorstep I quickly brought it to the office, grabbed the scissors and got the package open. Inside was this… Pretty, right? Then I just had to figure out what the heck it was! Turns out Febreze has a new home collection they are showing off through bloggers – they probably... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Wk 25

This past week started off as any normal week for me would…hectic, challenging, stressful etc…Which usually means that I tend to over eat or even eat the wrong things to make me feel better, because we all know that food can cure just about anything (just joking).  I am not a chocolate person, but I just kept eating it, I remembered to... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Wk 24

I feel like I am close yet soo far away from my actuall goal weight.  I know many will get different results or maybe some people will get the same results from using Sensa, I just have to remember that it is working and I have to remember to use it, even when you have to go on your annual chocolate run for when you have a bad case of PMS or you are... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Wk 23

I really have not been paying too much attention this week to making the best food choices.  I have been going through some fast food places, plus I have been purchasing frozen dinners, non of it that good.  Fast food explains itself but the frozen dinners (no matter if its low fat or a diet brand) are so full of sodium…I still remember to use... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Month 6, wk 22

Well here I am, last month…getting kind of excited here folks!  This week is kind of tough, I have 4 birthdays to contend with, which means much eating of cake. LOL!  I guess this means I will be using the sensa sweet side to sprinkle on the cake quite a bit.  Of course I will remember to exercise.  People have noticed lately that I have lost... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Month 5, wk 21

Well I would have to say not much has happened in the way of obstacles.  I am still conscious of using sensa when I am out or even when I cook for myself.  I think at this point half the battle is trying to figure out what to sprinkle on what foods.  Takes a little investigating, but have pretty much figured it out.  I haven’t lost any weight... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Month 5, wks 19-20

I just wanted to let everyone know that I have lost a total of 20 pounds so far since I have been using Sensa, I also attribute my success to better eating choices and exercising, I think it all pretty much goes hand in hand.  My guess is that anyone who uses Sensa will have different results, whether it, be the route I take or the route you choose,... [Read more of this review]

Perlabella – Retinol Anti-Aging Face Pearls

When I signed up to do the MomFluence.com Gift Guide extravaganza, I expected to get a teething ring or a car seat cover. Little did I know I would be getting a product that would have me acting like an ace reporter finding the best source available for an interview. You see, I have extremely sensitive skin, and if the box doesn’t say “hypoallergenic”... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Month 5, Wk 18

Wow!  Have I really made it this far?  Guess I have since I am writing this post. LOL!  Its funny how some weeks just blend into each other, some have the same obstacles and some have some new ones.  No obstacles here, just same old same old.  Had to take a 2 hour trip out of state; so nothing big there.  Made all the right choices and remembered... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Wk 17

It was great, I went to lunch with a friend this week where you have a choice of  a half order or full order, me being who I am chose the half order of a really delicious salad with shrimp and avocado dressing (Most Yummy!).  Much to my surprise (ok maybe I shouldn’t have been surprised) it looked like more then half order, I started to get... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Wk 15-16

I haven’t really lost too much weight these past couple of weeks.  Could be due to stress etc… I do remember to keep using Sensa on anything I eat, it could go back to the mood eating, just to eat and gain comfort, or it could be that I am just making an excuse to eat more then I should.  It just means I have to make better and healthier choices... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Month 4 Wks 13-14

I have decided to combine weeks 13 and 14, just because they were so similar.  I have had much more energy since I have been walking more, and eating less.  I have made a most nummy discovery…it is sugar free chocolate and vanilla pudding mix, the most heavenly taste, soo good that I could have eaten more than my share, but I remember to sprinkle... [Read more of this review]

Adventures in Sensa Wk 12

Ok, seriously, these holidays need to stop; it’s like the worse kind of pressure I can think of. I understand it was Mother’s Day weekend and all, but since when do both sides of the family think that I need to eat twice, and I am not talking about breakfast then lunch or even dinner, more like lunch 2hrs apart from each other. Really!... [Read more of this review]

Potty Training With The Potty Tots

When I had the chance to review the Potty Tots potty training system it took me  a few minutes to figure out how I was going to film Abby. You see, I’m pretty open about putting pictures and videos of my kids online, but going to the bathroom? That’s outside of my comfort zone. Way outside. I wondered if it was just me. Then today I saw... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Wk 11

This has been a much less stressful week, so I have not needed to use Sensa quite as much.  Just on the normal amount of food that I intake daily.  The thing I did find out that anyone who uses Sensa might want to watch out for, is that the whole in some of the containers are a little big, so instead of sprinkling I found that it has poured,  not... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Wk 10

I cannot stress enough how much more I am able to control how much I have been eating by using Sensa.  This week has been particularly ruff, so of course my stress eating habits are wanting to kick in.    I know I try to eat healthy naturally, but it’s really hard sometimes when you have things going on that just plain make you upset. Blah! ... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Month 3, Wk 9

This week was a most stressful week, all kinds of things going on that would trigger my mood/ stress eating.  I decided to write down the things I ate for the week (of course remembering to sprinkle with Sensa), and it really was not that much food.  Don’t get me wrong, I still was eating healthy, just not as much, and I didn’t feel guilty,... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Wk 8

I ran across the problem this week of what to sprinkle on my “Sweet & Sour Chicken”, I ended up going with the sweet side, and I had good results.  What I mean by good results is that my eyes and stomach said I could eat it all, but after using Sensa, that was a whole different story.   I am learning to incorporate exercise more into... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Wk 7

Well, I decided to break down and weigh myself and I have officially lost 10 pounds.  Still I am not that much affected by how much I have lost, I am more impressed by how I feel and look in my clothes.  It also helps that last night there were a bunch of friends over, who looked at me and said “OMG, you look great!”  Very genuine responses... [Read more of this review]

Sensa Month 2, wks 5-6

I am writing both weeks together, simply because the results seem to be the same.  Not anything bad.  Actually it is all good.  Still not checking to see how much weight I lost, just going on based how I look and feel, which is I feel great, eating less, and my jeans that I havn’t worn in a year fit awesome!  And when I mean awesome I don’t... [Read more of this review]
