Since I went on bedrest with baby Briggs, I had cancelled my gym membership. I had every intention on going back but it's true when people say your priorities change when you have a kid. The money it costs for a gym membership, gas to get there, and loading a baby up to get 20 minutes away...we just decided to start our own workout at home. It was my goal to lose the baby weight quick and here is one of the tools I have used to do it. This workout video will seriously kick anybody's booty. It has 3 levels and she has good modifications for some of the hard moves. It's a 20 minute video...I mean who doesn't have 20 minutes a day. I have been known to do it twice to make a 40 minute workout.
Tip: If you're trying to lose weight...you need to do a 40-50 minute workout 4-5 days a week. Once you've met your goal, you can slow it down some to maintain with a healthy diet.
One positive...this 30 Day Shred video is only $6.87! That's a deal! I would have put a picture of my "shredded" results but didn't want to put Jillian Michaels to shame :)
This has been my new toy. It makes my heart pitter patter, brings a smile to my face and happy dreams in my sleep. I've been having some issues with our old vacuum cleaner and seriously...vacuuming is, in my opinion, one of the hardest (physical) jobs in the house. So when your vacuum cleaner doesn't work good...it's discouraging b/c you feel like your work is in vain. So...I broke down and got this lovely machine. Since it came in...I have been vacuuming every day (I'm serious), even made a demo video on how the attachments work and sent to my family. As J says...get the girl a new vacuum and everybody else has to wear earplugs the rest of the day. Oh well, sorry I can't help it, this piece of machinery takes me to my happy place.
Do you like your house to smell good? I LOVE these candles. I had discovered them when we lived in Baton Rouge and have recently only found one vendor who sells them in Birmingham. So, you can purchase them at Charming Charlies at the Summit, or you can go here and order them online. There are lots of different kind of candles out there but these are by far my favorite. They smell up your whole house and last a really long time. So even though they are a little pricier than most, I personally think they are worth it.
This Iphone app I just discovered, the Cozi App...has changed the way of life in the Poland household. Just a few of the features...it sinks our calendars and sends reminders via email and text of upcoming events and appointments, place for grocery list and to do list with options to email those as well. If I plug in a grocery list of things I need J to pick up...he can access my from his phone without me having to send it to him. Love it!
So those are just a few more of my favorite things I though I would share with you all.
Stephen's Pharmacy in the Narrow's has Circle E candles if you are ever out by the church and want to swing by and grab one. Also, Jillian's new Ripped In 30 DVD is AHHHH-MAZING. It is 9.99 and a 20 minute workout also but with 4 levels and a good bit more intense. Love. it. I swap it out w/30 day shred to change up my workout a bit.
