How to Sweat and Not Lose a Drop

When you're not a fan of working out but you are a fan of long walks, the weather is never your friend. In the winter, it can be too cold to walk (though it's the weather I prefer) and the summer is too hot and sticky however it's not just the stickiness that gets to me. I heat up quickly, feeling all kinds of discomfort from headaches to tiredness to the swelling of my hands and feet. My oldest stepson doesn't too well either. If he's in the heat too long, he becomes disoriented, short of breath, and he can also swell up. As you can tell, with as hot as it's been, I have not gone on walks like I wanted however since I got myself the Xtreme Aqua Freezeable Bottle, I want to see how we do. 

The XtremeAqua Freezeable Bottle really is amazing. I brought the bottle to my work, fully frozen. This is what it looked like by about 2, 3pm. It was sitting in my office since 8am. Usually a normal water bottle would've been completely thawed and let's face it, drunk by that point. The XtremeAqua Freezeable Bottle has much left and not depleted yet. 

After seeing how long it lasted, I ordered 4 more for my husband and my kids. It gives me hope that even on the hottest days, I can take the walks I want to, to begin my journey toward a healthier life. It also gives me hope of my oldest being able to withstand the heat as well. 

I brought this same bottle with me when I went to visit my sister just yesterday. When we went out with our mom, I left the bottle in my car. 




I didn't return to the car until 10pm and while the remaining ice melted, the outside of the bottle felt hot yet the water inside still had a coolness about it. I couldn't believe it. Usually if the bottle feels warm, the beverage is warm but the water still had a refreshing coolness. I absolutely love it and not only do I stay hydrated but I stay cool as well. 

Thanks to this bottle, I am not dreading the heat as much anymore for myself or my oldest stepson. I can't wait till theirs come in so we can start our daily walks.

A Healthy Breakfast of Fruit

 The most common resolution for a new year, new month, and new day is to lose weight. I should know, I've made the same resolution several times. I can't have the same breakfast every day, it bothers my stomach. Some days I can eat scrambled eggs, other days I can't; some days I can eat avocados, other days I can't; some days oatmeal seems appealing but most days, I can't. This morning I had a breakfast that I can most definitely tolerate: fruit. I don't always have time to sit down and have a proper breakfast. Today was one of those days because I woke up late.  The fastest breakfast I could get together is grapefruit and cherries. I put them in my Lunch-It container (which is environmentally friendly being made from recyclable materials like our eco water bottles). The lunch-it container is great for portion control and for snacks.  As you can see, it was perfect for my breakfast this morning. They are really ideal for snacks, cold lunches, and fruit. It's...

Shopping on a Tight Budget (Host Edition)

  Shopping on a budget can be frustrating and downright not fun. It occurs often when you're doing this thing called adulting and if you're like me, you hope for a chance to splurge on yourself to get things you WANT instead of constantly paying for things you NEED (like paying bills).  This pandemic has not helped things. Since the reopening of businesses (those that survived the pandemic), prices have skyrocketed which I'm sure it's to help these businesses regain ground. Many are on tight budgets. Grocery shopping has even become a headache because $40 doesn't get you far even in the discounted grocery stores like Aldi's and Grocery Outlet. The average lowest grocery bill for my family of 5 is $70-$80 while the most expensive has been $160-180. It may seem low but when you take bills and other necessities into account, that's a lot to lose.  One way to save money is to use an app called Flashfood. Flashfood tells you what stores in your area has discounte...
