The beginning of my weight loss journey with Nutrisystem #NSNation

Disclosure: I am a part of the Nutrisystem Nation Blogger Program. The below mentioned products were provided free of charge in exchange for my honest review. Please do not start any weight loss or diet regimen before consulting with your physician first.

Starting tomorrow, Monday June 30, 2014 I will begin my weight loss journey with Nutrisystem. The first week I will be using their Fast5 program. I will enjoy their delicious meals and add in my own vegetables 4 times a day. I will eat breakfast, lunch and dinner along with an EnergiZING shake and an afternoon Craving Crusher shake all provided in my Fast5 kit. I have struggled with weight loss for a very long time and I am super excited to get started on my weight loss journey with other bloggers in the #NSNation. 


The thing I am dreading the most is logging my "before" picture but I know that I MUST do this in order to appreciate the end results. SO here goes! 

My before picture wearing size 15 shorts and XL top. My BIGGEST issue is my mid-section and I cannot wait to start seeing results! 

My measurements tonight are as follows:

Height: 5'9"

Top of Arms: 13 1/2 inches
Stomach: 43 1/2 inches
Chest Under breasts: 42 1/4 inches
Chest area around breasts: 45 inches
Legs: (top) Left leg 24 inches Right Leg 25 inches
Legs: (calves) 14 inches
Beginning weight: 198.4 lbs



I hope you will follow me on my journey!
I will continue to post weekly updates and I'm excited to share how the Fast5 works for me next week!

    Although it is only DAY ONE, I am already feeling motivated and excited (just hope it sticks...). Once we get over the biggest hurdles (adjusting, learning to maintain, and of course FAST 5 and losing the first few pounds) -- THEN I know it'll be smooth sailing. Here we go!!!

Kalorik Steam Mop Review and Giveaway Ends 1-26-13

I recently had the pleasure of working with  Kalorik  and do a review of their  Kalorik Steam Mop . This couldn't have came at a better time. I'm in the "New Year, New You" mode right now and there are lots of things I want to change. Harsh Chemical use is one of those things. The Kalorik Steam Mop works off of ordinary tap water! No detergents, soaps or chemicals needed! You can use the Kalorik Steam Mop to clean linoleum, ceramic tile, stone, marble, carpet, sealed hardwood, parquet and more! It's also very light weight and easy to use! I spoke with Kalorik via email on a Wednesday morning, and less than 48 hours my product arrived via FedEx! Two Thumbs Up! Upon arrival, it took all of 10 minutes to have it open, put together, and ready to use. It came with 2 small screws to attach the base to the actual cleaner, throw a microfiber pad on the base and we were ready to steam! I have hardwood flooring in my entire house so floor care is not something t...

Mabel's Labels Review

  Signs of April receives free products for review purposes and may sometimes be compensated for posts. Posts may also contain affiliate (marketing) links. Thank you to  Mabel's Labels  for sending out their Name Label Gift Pack for us to review.  Labeling is pretty important this day in time. Especially when you have children in school.  Being organized and having everything labeled is very important in our home and even more important for her school items.  We were able to customize our labels, as you will as well. Emma, aka The Baby Child, LOVES any and everything Unicorn so that's what we went with.  Things are often very easily picked up and never returned because something wasn't labeled with a name. She's also very notorious for leaving things at school or on the bus, so these labels will be a game changer!  The Name Label Gift Pack comes with 25 labels which is more than enough to label her school items.  We labeled her lunchbox, ben...

Never Go Down Without A Fight: One Mom's Struggle to Fight CPS

Many people don't know a whole lot about my personal life. I normally keep things quiet and just post my reviews and go on about my day. I started this blog to do coupon match ups but quickly found that I liked doing reviews and hosting the amazing giveaways. It pretty much keeps my mind occupied from the struggles I face and have faced daily the past 4 years.  Four years ago (next month) I lost custody of my then 8 year old daughter. She had gone to her Dad's for a 2 week summer visit in July of 09. I let her go a few days early simply because we weren't doing anything big here at home, however I told them that she would probably be needing a visit to the the Dr by the next morning because she had just gotten into some poison ivy and it would probably be spread by the next morning, but if they were willing to take her, then she could come early. The two weeks came and went and I didn't hear much from anyone. They had taken a trip to Panama City Beach so I didn...
