#BeFitAllYear Review & Giveaway

I have been compensated in the form of a gift card/money/coupon and/or received the product/service at a reduced price or for free. All opinions expressed are mine and honest in nature.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, I think eating real food is the best way to get nutrition. However, I know that I personally don't always eat all of the nutrients that I need, and sometimes supplementing is easier (especially when I'm pressed for time which I seem to be a lot!)

I had the opportunity to try 3 of BeFit's new nutritional products.



This included the pre-workout, burn and whey protein.

In addition to BeFit's nutritional products, I also had the opportunity to check out out their 30-day workout calendar along with the 30-day workout video playlist.

Let's start with the nutrition.

I LOVED the taste of the pre-workout. I've used amino acids before, and I do find that it helps with recovery. I can't say that it helped with performance but only because I didn't have a 'before' to measure it with. But I do feel that the amino acids can help with soreness. That being said, after 2 sips of this great tasting pre-workout, I realized that it tasted like strawberry (which I am allergic to). According to the label, it contains natural flavorings, and it was fruit punch. So I imagine it contained strawberry (or something close enough) as I did have a slight allergic reaction. So, I didn't continue to drink it. But of the amino acid blend supplements that I've had, I have to say this one tasted awesome. :)



Burn is a 'fat burner without the jitters'. I took it a few days, but I honestly drink too much green tea that I didn't want to over do it since Burn also contains green tea. I did give it to Hubby for a week to conduct an experiment. He's not one to exercise, so I was curious to see if he took it without making any changes would there be a difference. And after 8 days of taking Burn without exercising his weight remained the same. However, I can't confirm that his food consumption stayed the same. He may have actually consumed more calories that week, but didn't gain :)




Of the nutritional products, the Whey protein is what I have used the most. At 100 calories and 22 grams of protein, I found it tasty and an easy way to add some extra protein to my day. I liked that it blended easy without lumps. I can toss it into my shaker with water (or my veggie juice) and be on my way. I've never tried backing with Whey protein, but I know there are a lot recipes out there. I'm thinking muffins would taste great.



Overall, if you are looking for supplements, BeFit has a great line to choose from.

Now to the 30-day workout calendar and 30-day workout video playlist.... Check out the intro-video for the 30-day workout program.


The workout calendar was nice that it laid out a program that I could use. And the workout videos fit in nicely with my existing routine. I liked that several of the videos were 10 mins or so. I could do one or combine more than one depending on the time. And I liked how you could improvise as needed. I definitely worked up a sweat! I plan to continue to incorporate the workout video playlist from BeFit into my weekly routines.

And, now for the giveaway! Yep, one of you can win a nutritional pack from BeFit by simply entering the giveaway tools below.

Self Care Is Not Selfish It's Necessary

It's not selfish to take care of yourself. It's not selfish to take care of yourself. It's not selfish to take care of yourself. And I'll say it just one more time in case you didn't hear me. It's not selfish to take care of yourself. I have found through experience that when I'm not taking care of myself, not only do I suffer but my family suffers. So ditch the mom guilt and take the time that you need! I have a tendency to keep pushing my needs aside until I reach a breaking point. We've had a very busy fun summer so far. However, I've struggled to get some quality ' me ' time to decompress. I'll spare you the meltdown that ensued. But the reality check that followed prompted me to take action.

Running My Life

Wow, has it really been 2 years since my last post? I suppose that I allowed life to get in the way. For any faithful blog readers, I apologize. Although, I'm not sure how many people actually read blogs anymore. I think most people use other social media platforms.  (By the way, drop by and say hi on Insta. )  But for some reason, each year when I pay for my google domain, I can't seem to let it go. As silly as it sounds, this little space is mine. And lately I've been struggling with ownership and acceptance. And my domain renewal was a not so gentle reminder that I have a voice .  Seriously, you'd think by 48 that I'd have this figured out - nope - apparently not. However, I am wise enough to know that we have a choice to allow situations to harms us or make us stronger. I'm choosing to let this mid-life quandary make me stronger. And because of this, I'm setting goals, taking charge, and reexamining priorities.  Movin' on... 

When The Planner In You Must Be Flexible

In case you haven’t figured this out by now, I’m a planner. I know - shocker right?!? :) So although I love substitute teaching, it’s making the planner in me anxious. And it’s been reeking havoc on my workouts. Basically the morning of or maybe the night before, I find out if I’m working. So my day ( that I thought I had planned ) can be turned upside down in an instant. But, truthfully, isn’t that really the same with everyone?
