Reclaiming my diet ... before the holidays

So, I did a 3-Day Refresh TYPE cleanse. I did not have the money to purchase the 3-Day Refresh from Beachbody and then all of the food on top of it. I have Shakeology in the house and I know recipes for a cleanse. Unfortunately ... and I am sure this is what many people do ... the day I went off my cleanse, I immediately went back to my regular diet.

You know what happens when you do that? EVERYTHING comes back! The things that have changed is I realize that I just cannot do dairy without my IBS flaring like no one's business. Except yogurt ... yogurt doesn't bother me. Anyone else have IBS that have noticed this? Let me know in the comments below.

Being active as a female can be difficult

I am going to place a warning right here. I will be reviewing feminine products, as well as foot care. I was chosen for the #govoxbox with Influenster and in it was tampons, a pedi-rock, and insoles. I promise that it will not be gross or graphic, as this is a family blog. However, I will discuss things that might be a tad TMI.

Never would have guessed I liked to drink my meals

*Note - I was selected as a recipient of the #govoxbox by Influenster where I got free products. I was urged to post a blog post on the review but not required. The opinions are my own, as no one is the boss of me.*

I used to HATE meal replacement drinks. I always felt hungry afterwards and they didn't taste that great. It took forever to mix properly and I am so crazy about grainy drinks. Who would have thought that in the last few years that entire perspective would have changed ... still don't like grainy drinks though.

My new favorite insoles

I HATE manufacturer insoles. I have yet to find a pair of shoes that I don't immediately put in new insoles. So when Influenster gave me the chance to try Dr. Scholl's for Her Cozy Cushions, I was EXCITED.

Do you like free things?

Olay Fresh Effects BB Cream!

 

Yesterday, I wrote about my love for the SunVoxBox that I got in the mail a few weeks back. I showed the love for the Sinful Shine nail polish and the Goody Ouchless ribbon hair ties. Today I decided to be daring and take photos of my use for the Olay Fresh Effects BB Cream!

Fresh Effects

 

Tired, but clean, face

Please excuse my exhausted face!

BB Cream! applied!

Still tired, but doesn't show! Well, maybe a little, but definitely NOT as bad. Great investment for a busy mommy. It took 5 minutes to apply and it just put SPF 15 on my face protecting me from skin cancer. Now I get to look good AND protect my skin.

My Love for Influenster - SunVoxBox

I absolutely love Influenster! I got my first box a few weeks back, the SunVoxBox.
