Seven Down 83 to Go

02.09.11

I finished my first seven days of P90X. Two days last week I didn’t participate in P90X. Super Bowl Sunday was a day off and my poor little man had a terrible sinus infection and earache. I spent Monday at the doctor’s office and pharmacy getting his prescription. But I did complete all seven days. Let me start off by saying I take a yoga class once to twice a week. The P90X yoga day was torture for me. It wasn’t because it was difficult, I found Yoga X to be so slow and boring. Yoga X is about ninety minutes long and I kept watching the time on the bottom half of the screen. It felt like three hours of unnecessary description of each and every move of the other people in the video. My husband said I could skip it, but I’m not a quitter. I caught...

Does it Work?

On New Year’s Day everyone makes New Year’s Resolutions. I’m going to loose weight. I’m going to start a business. I’m going to take my dream vacation. You can’t wait to share resolutions.

Anyway, I completed the majority of my business taxes (that’s another story) so I am officially giving P90X a try. I do workout on a regular basis and go to the gym three to five days a week. My...

Aquafresh Iso-Active Whitening – Foam Party for Your Mouth

10.16.10

All my life I’ve been a Crest girl. Growing-up, my parents always purchased Crest for the family and I never thought of switching brands. I’ve been searching for a toothpaste that will leave my teeth feeling clean all day. I love the feeling of running my tongue along my teeth and feeling how slick my teeth feel. One night I saw a commercial advertising Aquafresh Flouride Toothgel – Deep Impact. I was intrigued by the foaming action of the toothpaste, so I purchased it on my next trip to Target. I was amazed when I used it. I could not believe all the foam the pea-sized amount of gel made. When I did the tongue test, my teeth were very slick. I was happy. The next day, I still had clean, slick feeling teeth. Overall, I am very pleased with Aquafresh Deep Impact. My main complaint is the gel...
