Yo-Plus Gift Pack Giveaway

I love yogurt. So does Charlotte. It is a quick and easy food for both of us and ensures we are both getting the dairy we need (especially since she only likes 1 kind of milk, ahem).

Blueberry's are Charlotte's favorite fruit too, so when I was offered a chance to try the Blueberry Acai Yo-Plus yogurt for free, I certainly didn't turn it down. I'm too frugal to turn free food down! And boy am I glad I took them up on their offer. It was yummy and not too sweet. Plus, it has probiotics in it to help with digestive help. And well, I'm pregnant, so that is a good thing!  

(If you need me to explain that last statement, then you are probably a man or never been pregnant!)

Then, the deal was sweetened even more and I was offered a chance to give away not one, but 3 gift bags that includes a coupon for a free 4-pack of Yo-Plus yogurt, Yoplait cooler tote bag, water bottle and a nutrition journal – great for keeping track of your health goals and eating habits. (I got a set too and the tote and water bottle are huge!)

I also have a $1.50 off 1 coupon if you'd like to try it yourself. Just click this link to print the coupon and don't forget to hit your browser's back button to print the Yo-Plus coupon a second time.

    My best tip would be to read labels, because you'd be suprised sometimes stuff seems healthy but its really not. Thanks for entering me!

    My current tip - which sometimes works :) - is to sit down for meals and make them attractive - lots of color!

    And we'd love some yogurt for breakfast...

    We try to do the 5-a-day for fruits and veggies. It helps.

    I recommend drinking 8-10 glasses of water a day.

    We always eat together as a family. We also talk about what each of us has done that day. It makes dinner fun.

    I try to make sure I always have fresh fruit around for snacking.

    My best tip is to eat 6 small meals vs. 3 big meals. This cuts down on snacking.

    My bes eating tip is to learn what a portion really is. Most of us, including me, think a portion is a lot larger than it is!

    Best tip for eating healthy - do it in little steps at a time. Don't change everything at one time. Throughout the recent years we have cut down on fatty foods, switched to more whole-grain products, less red meat, cut-out sugarfilled cereals etc.

    It hasn't always been easy - I was a die-hard junk food addict in my single days (bag of potato chips and soda for lunch) and of course old habits are hard to break.

    Last night I made two identical recipes of bread except one was all white flour, one was whole wheat and white...I asked my son which he liked better and he said the whole wheat - yea!

    My best tip is to eat on a smaller plate. Our dinner plates are HUGE, I find by eating on the small "dessert" plate (which is really the size of a small dinner plate) I eat less and am still full.

    We limit portion size, it's amazing how much that helps.

    Sorry, my tip for eating healthy is to keep anything out of the house that is tempting for you. If it's not there, you can't eat it, and you'll save a lot of calories and guilt!

    my tip is to get lots of fiber (i read this yogurt has more fiber than the average yogurt so that is good!), eating lots of raw veggies and fruits also helps! i also love adding lentils and beans to dishes when i can.

    My best tip is to plan meals before you go to the grocery store and buy from the outside aisles in the grocery store...Avoid the center aisles where the processed food is!

    I try to use fresh ingredients and minimize pre-made dishes. They usually have so much sodium in them!

    I eat yogurt every morning-I add a little fiber cereal on top for crunch. I don't buy junk food-instead I cut up veggies into bite size-the kids like that. And they love making air-popped popcorn.

    My best tip is to keep cut up fresh vegetables in the fridge, ready to eat for snacking.

Giveaway: Bake Me A Wish

Image
This giveaway is closed. When I came home from running errands recently, I saw a big box sitting on my doorstep. As I got closer, the anticipation built and then I realized it was a Vanilla Bean Cake from Bake Me A Wish! Woo hoo! This was a review I knew my husband would enjoy participating in. The Vanilla Bean cake from Bake Me a Wish! came packed in a cooler and ice pack because it is perishable. It took self control, but I put it in the fridge straight away and waited patiently for my husband to come home so we could celebrate life. When we finally got to sample the cake, I put some candles on it so Charlotte could practice blowing them out. We are slowly getting ready for the big day of her birthday party and have never put candles on a cake for her before. As I was enjoying my slice of the Vanilla Bean Cake, Bruce and I brainstormed when this type of cake service might be useful. And here is the list we came up with: When you want a gourmet cake, but don't have acces...

Win Free Cereal

This giveaway is closed. Winners will be announced later this weekend. I've definitely been on the giveaway wagon recently and am glad to be participating in the Fall Bloggy Giveaways Carnival. For this giveaway, I have FOUR (yes, you read that right - 4 winners!) full-price coupons for a new cereal from General Mills. Per their marketing, this cereal " combines great-tasting chocolatey puffs with vanilla puffs, a classic combination that kids love. Even better, Cocoa Puffs Combos is made with whole grain and is a good source of Calcium and Vitamin D." I love cereal. I could eat it for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and as a snack in between all of those. I am particularly fond of Lucky Charms. The crunchy combined with the sweet marshmallows gets me every time. All you have to do to enter is tell me what your favorite cereal is and leave some way for me to contact you, either through a blog or e-mail. This giveaway is open to US residents only (because I don't think t...

Note to Self

Image
This giveaway is closed. Winners will be announced later this weekend. Warning: Since I typically have a family-friendly blog, I want to let my readers know that this post is not safe for little eyes. Have you ever sat down with a new friend and found you stayed up way too late talking about every subject under the sun? Discussing religion, careers, and yes, even sex, even though you've only known each other for a very short period of time? That is what it was like for me to read Note to Self - On Keeping a Journal and Other Dangerous Pursuits , by Samara O'Shea. Once I started it, I felt like Samara and I were just hanging out on my couch, sipping decaf lattes and having a conversation. (Okay, Samara might be sipping something harder, but I'm still nursing.) It was that easy to read. The basic premise of her newest book is teaching people how to write in a journal, by sharing her own journal entries. Personally, she wrote for therapy, sharing "A journal is an effecti...
