I recently received some Mary Kay® products to review. The assortment focuses on the “Hollywood Glamour” trend.

Wedge Sneakers Sneakers are a great everyday shoe. They’re comfortable and super functional for a day of running errands. But unfortunately, practicality comes with a price. Sneakers might make you feel good, but they don’t exactly help you look good. When’s the last time you looked at a woman and thought, “Wow, those sneakers really…
I DID IT!!! I finally reached my weight loss goal this past week!!!!!!! OMG I’m SOOO HAPPY!!! I wanted to lose weight for almost two years and just didn’t have the dedication or motivation to actually DO it. I tried to eat good and exercise, which helped me lose around 1 pound a month, but…
When Revlon introduced their new Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain’s, I knew I was going to have to pick one up to see what all the hype was about. The shade I chose was Rendezvous, which is a bright orange. I am always drawn to vibrant colors, and this was no exception. I’ve rated the…
I did it! I’m down to 119lbs! Oh my goodness, if someone had told me a month ago I was going to lose 9 pounds in 3 weeks, I would have thought they were nuts…. Seriously, if I had known it was going to be this easy, I would have done this a YEAR AGO!!!…
Sorry for the lack of updates. For 5 days (day 12 – Day 17) I was on mandatory bed-rest with Cellulitis (deep tissue infection similar to flesh eating bacteria) from a tick bite. I had to have my leg elevated and it was swollen and in an excruciating amount of pain. Definitely, hands-down, the most…

So I wonder to myself…. Can I drink too much water??? I had 2.5 quarts yesterday on a PP day and I’m still 124 lbs, although I don’t feel bloated… Yet… My period is due on Friday. (Sorry for the TMI ladies!) I usually gain 3-5 pounds the week leading up to my period. Perhaps…
I lost 4 pounds in 5 days. I’m on Day 7 of my diet now and the “rapid weight loss” is starting to slow down. We all know those last 10 pounds hang on for dear life… *sigh* Attack Phase: Day 1 – I weighed in at 127.8 lbs (12 lbs over goal weight) Day…
Weighed in at 124.2 this morning. I’ve lost over 3 pounds in 3 days! Seriously, this diet is amazing. What an encouraging way to kick start a diet and get you motivated, huh?! It’s still hard to have to prepare food for the other 3 members of my family that are very much NOT participating…
