Energems - Chocolate Energy

Full Disclosure: I received products free of charge for the purpose of providing a review. My opinions are completely my own based on my experience.

Yawn... anyone else feeling me? With this time change, Lil Man has been up at 5am or before most days this week. Did I mention the first day that the time changed, Lil Man was up at 3am! On those days I was just dragging.. until... I enjoyed some delicious Energems! These little gems are amazing. Not only do they taste awesome, but I get that boost of energy that I need.


I know you are asking - what exactly are these things?
Well they have 50 calories, 650% vitamin B, 2830% vitamin B12, 100% vitamin D, 133mg Caffeine, and 100mg L-theanine. They have no artificial flavors or preservatives, and they are made with real dark chocolate.

I personally have found that 1 gem is all that I 'need' for a pick me up. It's not all that I want to eat :) These things are tasty, but I've found that if I eat 3 I sometimes get the jitters. I am sensitive to coffee (especially if I don't have enough on my stomach). But a serving of gems has about the caffeine as some large coffees. I tend to drink a quarter, maybe half a cup most days. But one gem (energy wise is perfect for me) 

But what I really love about them (other than the taste) are the B vitamins that are in them. I am trying to eat my food, but I know that I am lacking in B-vitamins. And this sure is one tasty way for me to enjoy them. 

I'll be the first to tell you that I'm not a 'huge' fan of supplements. But I will say that I do carry a bottle of Energems with me. I'm serious. I have a bottle in the side of my gym bag. I love them. I have found that they work great for me. I don't use them daily, but I do enjoy them as needed.

Pinrose Petal Pack Review and Giveaway - 10 Winners!

Bear with me, I know this blog is mainly about fitness, nutrition, and occasionally about being a stay-at-home mom, but I got the chance to review what I think is a pretty cool product and I wanted to share it with you. I'm not one to usually wear perfume. I have allergies, and I'm super sensitive to smells. So usually I just bypass perfume. But when I heard about Pinrose , I was intrigued. Being someone who is constantly in motion, and I know that many of you are the same way, I found this product to be very useful.  I'm talking about Pinrose, and their fragrances are in petal packs. They are perfect on-the-go packs. And on their website they have a  synesthesia   test where you basically look at a series of images and they conclude from that test what they think would be your best fragrances. I found the test very interesting. However, you were supposed to go with your gut and not think too long. On one of the images I actually changed my mind and changed...

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.

Jogging Strollers Freedom And Fresh Air

Full Disclosure: I have partnered with Thule to #giveaway a Thule jogging stroller, but I have not been compensated in any form.  I remember when Lil Man was a baby. My only time to get in a workout was before Hubby went to work. Which meant I had to run at 5am or 6am after being up most of the night with Lil Man. You guessed it, those early morning runs just didn't happen most days. I tried. I really did, but I was exhausted. Yes, I have a treadmill which helped. But it didn't give me the freedom ( or the fresh air ) that my jogging stroller did. Pushing the stroller was hard. It became a challenge that I looked forward to overcoming. And on those days that running just wasn't going to happen, walking could. So I did. I could take Lil Man out at any time and get some exercise and fresh air. Sometimes it was all we needed to change both of our moods.
