Updates!

Hello there Saints! Your girl is still out here. Alot has been going on with our family but it is all good things here and there. None the less I want to give a few updates on what has been happening with me. ;o)

Hair Care

I'm still transitioning out of my heat damaged hair. It has been 5 months since my dreadful set back but none the less it is growing out. I am transitioning through it with crochet braid extensions. I'm currently on my 3rd install of crochets and still very much enjoying this protective style. I shampoo my scalp once weekly, moisturize and seal daily, and oil my scalp 2 to 3 times weekly. Very low maintenance for me with crochets.

Weight Loss Journey

Well, after all the holidays last year, the food has stayed with me. So, I am now on a weight loss journey as well. I have gained 15lbs since November

Get LOSS!

Hello Saints! Happy New Year by the way! Well now that the holidays are done I come into the new year with extra pounds that I thought I would leave back in 2012. It's only 5 pounds but those few extra pounds can make a difference in how clothes feel when you put them on. So, I'm going back to the drawing board in full. I'm going to start on Phase 1 of the '17 Day Diet' by Dr. Mike Moreno. My husband has decided that he too is going to join in on the journey as well. If you have not heard of the '17 Day Diet' I highly recommend taking a look into it. I started reading and actively doing the diet and I loss pounds quickly and safely. The book is easy reading and there is nothing in there for food that you do not already eat. Dr. Moreno helps us to eat right and get more healthy eating in our lifestyle. By time you get to phase 4 you are able to put back the treats that we liked back in the day every now and then.

Awesome Amazon Finds!

My wonderful husband was blessed unknowingly with a $50 gift card to Amazon.com. In turn he blesses ME with it. He is so sweet. Anywho, prior to me receiving the gift card, I was already looking around on the site trying to get the best value for Jamaican Black Castor Oil. I have been able to get it locally here in Tampa Bay but I would pay $10 for a 4oz bottle. As I looked online I could pay the same amount but get an 8oz bottle. You do the math. Granted then there would be shipping/handling costs too. So, turns out Amazon does offer free shipping on various items when you purchase $25 worth of products. After I plugged in the gift card I loaded my shopping cart with Sunny Isle JBCO, The 17 Day Diet and Coastal Scents GO Palette-Cairo.  I recieved free-shipping on 3 items and I still have money left on the gift card for future purchases.
