Have you been really working hard to cut the calories and increase your workouts this spring and summer?  Have you vowed to keep it up all year long? You can do it, girl....if Glamamama and her mama (Mama is almost 80 now) can do it, you can too! You just have to make your mind up. It isn't all fun and games though and I know, it is more of a challenge after 40...we have to work harder and eat less. There are some little tricks you can employ, like my newest find, Calorease.  It is an exciting and pretty compelling new option though it is not magic and you have to be reasonable....
I just recently heard about Calorease through Green Moms Meet.  I was excited to try it because, as I have shared before, after 40 it is always a challenge to keep things looking good even with regular exercise and a almost perfect diet. Calorease is one of the fastest and easiest ways to make your weight management program more effective. Again, it is not magic. You can't go nuts on the fast food and treats though. But, unlike many other diet aids, it is 100% stimulant-free and heart-healthy.  Data indicates that Calorease binds to and eliminates up to 9 times its weight in dietary fat.  Calorease can reduce up to 500 calories a day from the fat in foods.  Hey, 500 kcals is a ton. That is enough in a week to help keep off an extra pound or two. You can have that little treat or occasional cheat meal here and there and not agonize over it.  I love that Calorease is naturally sourced, and has been researched in studies and clinical trials. I totally think that as part of a reduced calorie diet—AND with a regular exercise program—Calorease is that little edge you can use to help you meet your goals and stay on track all year long.

• Calorease is super easy to use anywhere. Simply take two tablets with a fat-containing meal three times a day. You have to be consistent for the best results.

• If taken as recommended, results can be seen in about 2-3 weeks. Keep in mind that Calorease isn't a magic bullet for quick weight loss, just a little extra assistance.

• I love that you don't need to follow a particular diet to use Calorease.  Of course, you need to eat reasonable, balanced and nutritiously though. Here are some great ideas for healthy meal plans to start you out!

• Calorease does not contain gluten, lactose, yeast, wheat, sugar, salt,egg, soy, dairy, artificial colors, sweeteners or preservatives. It is naturally sourced from grain and is suitable for vegans.

• A convenient blister pouch provides 1 serving (2 tablets) so it’s easy to take on the go. A 90-tablet pack of Calorease retails for $29.99 but Glamamama's readers get a 50% discount so keep reading to get the discount code and save!

Here is the inside scoop regarding Calorease:  It’s understood that fiber can bind with dietary fat and prevent fat from being digested. But since most fibers bind fat at a 1:1 ratio, you would have to consume unrealistic amounts of ordinary fiber to gain any benefit—until now. Calorease (FBCx) has a unique, patented fiber that binds up to 9 times its weight in dietary fat, reducing up to 15,000 calories per month from a normal diet.

Here is your exclusive discount: Visit Calorease and enter code 4MOMS to get your 50% discount! You pay only $14.99 for a 90-tablet pack!

Who doesn't love to win big?  Hot summer days and friendly picnics have made way for busy school schedules and changing seasonal colors...at least in the mid-Atlantic area here.  Everyone is back to school and back to work. Ugh. I have something that can cheer almost anyone up though.  Would $1,000 improve your mood for fall?

What could you do with an extra $1,000?  I could think of SO many things to do with $1,000.  I would start with some charity. I think I would share my bounty and give $100 to a worthy cause. I work closely with breast cancer and with October being breast cancer awareness month I think I would give my $100 to a breast cancer charity. Perhaps Susan Komen.  The other $900...maybe a special weekend at a waterpark for the family.  That sounds like a fun way to spend it, don't you think?

Hurry up and start the season off right and make the transition a smooth one by entering the Step into Fall Dirt Lift Sweepstakes for a chance to WIN $1,000, plus a year's supply of Purex with Dirt Lift Action Detergent.  You can win BIG by clicking HERE and entering now!

Back To School Survival Tips from Claritin and Glamamama

Disclosure: "As a member of the Children's Claritin Mom Crew, I receive product samples and promotional items to share and use as I see fit. No monetary compensation has taken place and any opinions expressed by me are honest and reflect my actual experience."

Yo mamas, it is Back To School time already, can you believe it?  I have lots of good tips to save you time and money so keep reading!  We always need to make sure we are prepared for anything that comes our way so every bit of help counts when it is back to school survival, all of us mamas know it is never ever mama for herself...it is one mama helping another, right?  I was happy to get some great Back-to-School allergy tips from my friends at Claritin that I could share with my mom friends like you online and in person. Check out all the great tips on allergies plus my own great back-to-school advice from back-to-school shopping tips to lunch box inspirations.


Back to School Allergy Tips 
 
1. Be sure to have Children’s Claritin, the #1 pediatrician-recommended non-drowsy allergy brand, on hand!

2. Multi-vitamins are building blocks to having a strong immune system. Make taking a multi-vitamin part of your child’s daily routine. Mine love the NatureMade gummies!
3. Let there be light! Mold doesn't like sunlight, so try to keep your curtains open during the day. Should be easy during the summer and fall months!
4. Did you know that most pillows trap allergens, dust mites, and bacteria? Monitor the cleanliness of the pillow your child with allergies sleeps on and replace if necessary. Buy an extra one so you are not always washing too!
5. Back to school season means lots of laundry for many moms. Be sure to remove laundry from the washing machine promptly. Set a timer if you need to. Allowing wet clothes to sit in the washer means mold can quickly grow there.
6. Monitor pollen counts and adjust outdoor before and after school activities accordingly. Dry, windy days can be particularly high in pollen.
7. Showering or bathing at the end of the day as opposed to the morning can be helpful in removing allergens from body surfaces and hair.
8. Stay hydrated! Always send your child to school with a bottle of water. Drinking lots of clear fluids through the day can help get rid of toxins and flush them out the body.
9. Don't forget the healthy lunch, mama. Many fresh fruits and veggies taste more fun when you pop them on a skewer and keep the colors bright. Yellow and red peppers, cherry tomatoes, grapes, small pieces of cheese.... 
9. Peak pollen production typically occurs in early morning, so try to plan outside activities at other times of the day.

I also got a few goodies to share...online and in person. I received 5 Back to School "Survival Kits" from Claritin as  a member of the Claritin Mom Crew which made it easier for me and several of my mom friends in my neighborhood to manage the chaos of back-to-school. Everyone loved them.  All my friends are so like me...we get overwhelmed and are forever writing notes to ourselves and losing birthday invites.  The kits were met with sincere enthusiasm.  Julie said, "Aaah, now I have no excuse to not R.S.V.P for the next bday party since it is going to be on my refrigerator with that big magnet clip!"  Barb was so happy because she gave her daughter Kate all her post it notes for school and needed a new supply.  Thanks Claritin!

The kits included:
  • (5) Back to School "Survival Kit" Pass-Along Packs including:
    • Children's Claritin post-it notes (Mom, Don't forget now!)
    • Children's Claritin shopping list notepad (cheese, fruit, veggies)
    • Children's Claritin refrigerator magnet clip (birthday parties!)
    • Children's Claritin pen (write your notes!!)
    • Children's Claritin/KaBOOM! voting reminder cards (charity!)
  • Back-to-School allergy tips to share with online and offline friends
  • Back-to-School E-card to share with Moms online 
Here is your own Back-to-School E-card so you can share with all your local mom friends too! Simply insert the E-card image into an email, add your own personal message, and email it to your fellow moms to wish them a productive school year! Don't forget the descriptive subject line like “From One Mom to Another- Best Wishes for a Great School Year!”



Here's a giant sparkling wish that your new school year is a success for all your children and you mama. Remember to keep Children's Claritin, the #1 pediatrician- recommended non-drowsy allergy brand, on hand for all those pesky allergies.
