Updated with the latest generation in sensor technology, it provides precise results in graduations of 1g or 0.1oz.

The Ozeri Ultra Thin Digital Kitchen Scale has a capacity range from a mere 0.1 ounces to 11 lbs. It displays results in both the US and international metric systems -- grams | ounces | pounds | kilograms. The large LCD screen features an improved viewing angle for the on-the-move chef. The Ozeri Ultra Thin Digital Kitchen Scale also includes a 1 minute automatic turn-off that preserves battery life while giving you time to confirm each measurement -- 2 Lithium batteries included.
Review:

This scale is easy to use and it works great!  I love being able to know how much of something I am actually eating.  I am on a strict diet and this helps me control portions and know how many calories I am eating of something.  I really enjoy weighing out my food and getting only the amount that I need.  If you are looking for a nice, easy to use food scale, this is the one for you!

I Lost 88 Pounds in 41 Weeks on Nutrisystem #NSNation

This week has been amazing in terms of weight loss.  I lost another 4 pounds for a total of 88 since I started this journey 41 weeks ago.  I am so close to goal.  Nutrisystem rocks.  I love every pound I lose.  I want it to be gone forever.  I will never go back to being obese.  I will never go back to being overweight.  I am going to get to a healthy weight and do whatever it takes to maintain it for the rest of my life.

I wrote an article for Weight Loss Triumph where I review my year-long Nutrisystem journey: http://www.weightlosstriumph.com/nutrisystem-healthy-meals-delivered-to-your-door.html

My #NSNation term is winding down.  I am on my last month and I will continue to post my weekly reports until I am to goal.  I will buy a few more months after I am done with the blogger program just so that I can finish what I started.  Nutrisystem works and I love it!

Please email me or message me if you want to save money on your first order.  I will be able to help you out!

Element Accelerated Pilates with Resistance Band DVD Review & Giveaway Ends 10/30/12 at 7 PM EST

Review:

When you think of Pilates you may think that it's too expensive and too time consuming for you.  But you can't deny the body changing results it delivers.  With the new Element: Accelerated Pilates with Resistance Band DVD Pilates become accessible and affordable.  For only $16.98 you get the DVD with an invigorating 30 minute total body workout, a 10 minute abs program plus the resistance band.  It prectically puts Pilates in your pocket so you can do it anytime, anywhere.  The kit will be sold in stones and on Amazon beginning September 25, 2012.

Pilates expert Lisa Hubbard says, "I use a resistance band often in my practice and incorporated it into this new Element program to increase challenge, assist in activating additional muscle groups and help us to emulate several movements that are performed on the apparatus used in Pilates studios.  Using this band will not only deliver accelerated results, but it can really change up your Pilates routine in a fun way."

The 30 minute total body routine uses the resistance band to sculpt even the deepest muscles in a short amount of time for accelerated results and a simmer, stronger and more toned body.  The bonus 10 minute ab workout is an efficent way to put some extra focus on the abs.  These programs are complimentary and can be done together whenever your schedule allows.  They will help to lengthen and strengthen the whole body while improving balance, flexibility and overall health.

I love this workout.  The resistance band helps me get moves down that I am otherwise unable to do.  I was extremely sore after the first go around but each time I do it I am able to go deeper with each move.  I am such a fan of the Element workouts.  Pilates is also one of my favorites and I pop this workout in when I need to get a good workout and feel nice and relaxed after I finish.

I Lost 84 Pounds in 40 Weeks on Nutrisystem #NSNation

I apologize for this weekly post being late.  I went to the Doctor on Monday for my annual physical and found out that I have high blood pressure.  This is super scary to me and I have been consumed by it since I found out.  I was told to go home and check periodically for a week and record the readings.  After two days of doing that I called to doctor's office and went back in.  Yesterday they put me on medication.  After discussing my eating habits and level of physical activity we came to the conclusion that it must be genetic.  

Monday was my official weigh in day for week 40s completion and I was down another pound for a total of 84 pounds lost since I began using Nutrisystem.  I can only imagine how bad my health would be now if I still weighed what I did when I began the program.  This weight loss has had an awesome impact on my health.  This blood pressure would have shown up eventually anyway and I feel like I may have been in denial about it up until this point.

I have been blessed with good health and have only had to go to the doctor once a year up until now.  When I would go in the past the first blood pressure reading would be high and then once I relaxed they would check it again and it would be in a more normal range.  I would always make excuses for it like being nervous because I am at the doctors office.  It's time that I address this issue and work on it so that I can continue the rest of my life healthy.

Nutrisystem is amazing and I am so glad that I don't have to feel embarrassed that I caused this blood pressure problem by being overweight.  I am so close to a normal weight now that I know it's genetic and not due to my own actions or lack thereof.  I workout on a daily basis and eat sensibly.  Please consider starting Nutrisystem now if you are ready to lose weight and feel amazing.

PB2 Information and Link to Get it Cheap!

I’m one of those people who has an amazing memory when it comes to the exact number of calories and grams of fat in just about any consumable item — from carrot cake to cough drops — and I’m always on the lookout for foods that taste yummy but aren’t super-fattening.
This is why I always have a jar of Bell Plantation’s PB2 within arm’s reach– at home, in my desk drawer at work…even in my car.

Buy PB2 for less at Vitacost.com!

Why PB2? Well, it smells like real peanut butter. It tastes like real peanut butter. It is real peanut butter–sort of. It’s real peanut butter that’s had most of the fat removed from it. Two heaping tablespoons of the stuff will set you back just 45 calories. Two tablespoons of the real stuff? We’re talking close to 200 calories.
When I start raving about PB2, I get a lot of raised eyebrows. “Powdered peanut butter? Really? Why can’t you just eat the real stuff?”
Um, because I’m saving my calories for a real serving of chocolate lava cake at my husband’s birthday dinner, that’s why! And besides, the powered stuff really does taste great, trust me!

Here are a few ways I use it:
1. In yogurt. Greek yogurt is high in protein. I toss in some PB2 for even more protein.
2. As a substitute for real peanut butter in recipes. Whether it’s a yummy muffin or a Thai chicken satay dish, there’s no reason you have to use the real, high-fat stuff when there’s PB2! I add a tablespoon of water along with the powder.
3. I toss it in vegetarian chili along with some red pepper flakes. It instantly kicks up the flavor and transforms my beans and veggies into something exotic.
4. They say oatmeal sticks to your bones, but if I eat plain old-fashioned oats with warm water, I’m always hungry by mid-morning. If I add in two tablespoons of PB2, I feel full ’till lunch–and it makes the oatmeal taste soooo much better.
5. In smoothies. I mix almond milk, a scoop of chocolate whey powder and two tablespoons of PB2 with crushed ice. Delish!

If you haven’t tried it yet, don’t let its powdery consistency scare you away. True, it may not be perfect for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, but as a way to make food more fun (and less fattening!), you can’t go wrong with PB2!
(For those choco-holics out there, don’t forget to check out chocolate PB2!)

IF YOU WANT TO ORDER, USE THIS LINK FOR $10 OFF!  2 JARS FOR $5.71!!!

Element: Yoga for Energy & Relaxation Review & Giveaway Ends 10/20/12 at 7 PM EST

Element:  Yoga for Energy & Relaxation Review

Anchor Bay Entertainment just released this DVD on September 25, 2012 and it can be purchased on Amazon.com.  It costs less than a week's worth of Starbucks and will teach anyone how to wind up or down at will.  Yoga expert Tamal Dodge leads two time-efficient practices that are simple enough for a total yoga beginner to enjoy. 

This workout will help whether you're in need of a natural boost of energy or you're ready to wind down and quiet your mind.  It's designed to give you a perfect balance of vitality and relaxation in around thirty minutes.  The Energy practice includes breath work and postures known to boost the nervous system, build strength and muscle tone.  The invigorating program will reduce fatigue and leave you feeling focused and alert, really more productive in every way. 

The forty minute Relaxation practice melts away tension from the muscles and mind with restorative poses, deep relaxation techniques and asanas known to calm the natural fight or flight mechanism in the body.  This peaceful sequence will help you gain flexibility, improve sleep and dissolve away stress leaving you with an overall feeling of wellness and contentment.

All you need to do these workouts is a yoga mat or you could just use a rug.  You might want to have a towel handy to make certain moves more comfortable.  There are not any intimidating poses to be found.  The scenery is breathtaking. 

Tamal Dodge was raised in Hawaii on his family's yoga ashram.  He began teaching yoga at the age of 16.  He is the co-founder of The Yoga Collective, one of the largest yoga studios in the Los Angeles area, and s the owner/director of the Tamal Yoga School, a national yoga certification program.  When he is not teaching at his school or studio, Tamal spends much of this time touring the world to share the benefits of yoga with people of all ages.  His goal is not only to help people become more physically fit but ultimately happier and more fulfilled.

I Lost 83 Pounds in 39 Weeks on Nutrisystem #NSNation

This past week I lost another pound bringing my total so far to 83 pounds lost in 39 weeks on Nutrisystem.  I am super proud of myself.  I really do feel like a new woman.  I haven't reached my goal weight yet but I am well on my way and I have the confidence to know that I can and will reach it soon!

I have placed my last order with Nutrisystem and will be finished with the blogging program in a little over four weeks.  I love the program so much that I am going to continue using it on my own until I reach goal and possibly on into maintenance.  This program is so convenient and effective that it truly is hard to replicate on your own.

I love the Nutrisystem family.  They are so supportive and helpful.  Anytime I need help I can call and talk to a counselor and they will support me in whatever I am going through at the time.  Nutrisystem is amazing and I really wish that everyone who has a problem with weight will give it a try and learn to eat right and lose weight.
