Disclosure: I received the product mentioned above complimentary for the purpose of
this review. The opinions are my own, based on my personal experience
with the product.
I really
needed a new scale for my guest bath. Of course my mom uses it all the
time when she is here visiting but we actually use that bathroom alot. I am so happy I ignored all
the naysayers when we completed our lower level and added a beautiful guest
bath since we use it ourselves so often.
The Ozeri
WeightMaster II Digital Bath Scale has a ton of features that are actually
super easy to use. You can even check your BMI and Weight
Differential. It instantly displays your BMI (Body Mass Index), current
weight, and even your net weight change since your last weight check. I like
this since it really helps encourage me to keep things moving as we hit the
spring. This scale also can calculate your net weight change from the average
of your last 3, 7 and even 30 weigh-ins if you like. You can really use this as
a tool to help better manage your weight season to season. Lordy knows the
winter season is the worst for me.
The scale
even has a 30 day memory. I don't weigh myself daily but many of my
friends do. If you are training you might need to. You can track your
weight and even calculate changes from the previous day, the average of the
last few days or the previous week for example. All the way up to the last
month. You can see everything very easily too even if your vision kind of is
going downhill like mine. The intelligent display is very easy to see and even
uses something called color alert technology. Kind of a neat
concept.
Ozeri created
the WeightMaster II with a Smart LCD that uses Color Alert Technology. If
you want to zero in on your weight trends then just know that the scale
displays your weight change in color. I like that you see a cheerful bright green illumination for weight loss and
a bright red for weight gain.
Can't miss that, right? Well, at least you will know either way and you
can make the appropriate tweaks in your diet and add step it up with the
cardio. Fortunately, mine has been showing green since I have been working out
hard and keeping my diet very clean after this long winter. Again, you can
follow the trends for any time period up to 30 days which is encouraging.
The scale is
easy to work and you con't have to do anything complicated with it. My mom used
it without a hitch and she is not the most technologically gifted person out
there. You don't have to sync or deal with any wireless or Bluetooth
technology either.
No matter
where you are starting this scale can work for you...it weighs up to 440 lbs
and automatically recognizes up to 8 unique users. Great for a big family,
roomates or even a small office. I love that it automatically calibrates
with something they call StepOn technology and then it auto-powers off. You can
feel sure footed on this scale too. It has a slip-resistant grooved ABS
exterior that is reinforced with a tempered glass interior. Even the feet are
well designed...they are non-slip scratch-resistant and won't damage flooring.
The Ozeri WeightMaster II bath scale is treated with high quality Microban®
antimicrobial product protection that disrupts the growth of stain and odor-causing
bacteria and helps maintain surface cleanliness. You can purchase it on
my favorite store Amazon.

Have your kids always wanted to check out the martial arts but you just didn't want to make the initial investment? Maybe they have had some issues with bullying at school. I have recently heard and checked out a great option to dip your feet into the martial arts...totally online. The web's first Martial Arts for Kids MOOC (Massive Open Online Classroom) is up and running. Although the primary benefit of training in the system is self defense children, will also gain in other areas.
Respect- They will learn the protocols and meanings of these protocals. these are designed to teach respect for oneself and others.
Discipline- Our martial arts instruction is inspiring.
Children will be inspired to work hard and will thereby naturally
develop self discipline.
Physical Fitness - Classes are energetic. Kids will get lots of exercise.
Coordination - Shou' Shu' develops coordination.
Especially due to that large amount of cross lateral motions. Cross
lateral motions have been shown to enhance learning. Especially helpful
for kids with ADD, ADHD, Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia or similar.
Ant-Bullying - Kids will learn to understand how to prevent bullying as well as determining threat level and appropriate responses.
Fun - classes your child is sure to enjoy!
This is a fun and easy to learn program that includes 13 lessons and a handbook. A few details about the program:
Nothing! If you have a punching bag that is great, otherwise you can use a big pillow.

Sheng Chi Martial Arts has been teaching the self defense art of Shou' Shu' Kung Fu
professionally since 1995. They actually pioneered the teaching of children in this
art. Having perfected the teaching system over the last 19 years they are
now bringing the experience online to help more children.
The scarcity of martial arts schools teaching a self defense art (in
contrast to a sport karate) has prompted us to develop this online
curriculum. Making it available in the convenience of your home makes it super easy for anyone to access and learn.

I was impressed with their Sheng Chi non profit foundation at well. You can also take a peek at their adult martial arts lessons as well.

So many of my friends struggle with helping their children. It is so common these days. Children can have a variety of stumbling blocks that make learning a challenge. But there are ways to help your child and they don't always cost an arm and a leg. I recently looked at an on-line option called the Learning Success Program that might be a good option for you and your child.
The Learning Success Program is a simple do-at-home program that will
show you how to find the core problems and overcome them. Sometimes you just need a place to start. Learning is
made up of basic core skills. There are 16 of them in all. Typical
learning difficulties are small weaknesses in a combination of two or
three of these skills. The Learning Success Program can helps overcome learning difficulties such as:
Dyslexia
Dyscalculia
Dysgraphia
ADD/ADHD
Each of these pretty technical terms simply means that there is a weakness in two or more
of these basic learning skills. But it doesn't define which ones. Once you
get started in the course you'll quickly find the trouble spots. Once
you do that your child will be on the path to learning success. The Learning Success Program will help teach your child how to learn simple exercises that strengthen the skills needed for successful
learning. Modern scientific breakthroughs have discovered a number of
methods for overcoming these problems. Once you do your child will
actually enjoy homework and not have those frustrations that make the two of you nuts.
The best part is that you don't have to drive around to appointment after appointment. No waiting. The course is delivered via email. You will receive emails each day with
exercises you simply print out and do with your child. It takes
approximately 15 - 20 minutes 3-5 days per week. We found them fun and easy to do. Results are typically
seen starting at about 3 months but can come earlier. If there are more compound problems
it might take approximately 1 year to overcome them. Try it out and see if this works for you. Let me know your thoughts!

Are you tired of dry winter skin and you are determined to
get a fresh, pretty and bright look for spring?I am too!Serums are the newest
and easiest non-surgical option out there to help set your skin in the right
direction. Have you heard about Vitamin C serums yet?I have been so excited about them and I was
pleased to have the opportunity to review Belitae Organics FRESH Vitamin C
Serum recently. You are going to love
what it does for your skin..I was pretty impressed.
Belitae Organics FRESH is formulated with STAY-C50! What is this?Belitae's FRESH-C Vitamin C Serum is formulated with this proven highly
active form of Vitamin C. This Vitamin C goes to work
deep in the layers of your skin where it is converted to Ascorbic Acid
by your cells. It has the added benefit of staying fresh in the
bottle until applied and absorbed by your skin too. STAY-C50 has been studied to show that it is a more stable and bio-available
formulation of Vitamin C. What this means for you (and me!) is that more "C" gets to the place you
want it to be…deep inside your skin. This way your skin gets the most benefit from all that special restorative, refining and brightening that Vitamin C can do for you. Belitae Organics Vitamin C serum
bio-converts to L-ascorbic acid when it combines with those enzymes in your
skin. More of it is available to help you be the most beautiful you can be. STAY-C
50 is a very potent antioxidant but no worries for you or me since it does not oxidize in
the bottle.
An amazing fact that I learned is that topical Vitamin C is 20 times more effective when applied on
your skin versus popping a vitamin pill.Vitamin C serum has been shown to restore, refine and brighten skin and
we could all use a little of that!Belitae Organics shared with me that their product can offer reduction
in age spots and discoloration, smoother, more vibrant skin, reduction in fine
lines and wrinkles, hydrated, healthier and younger looking skin and even a boost
in collagen production.You need to use it every day to see long term results. That is a huge
deal for one little bottle! Some information about Belitae Vitamin C Serum
Formulated with STAY-C50 a proven bio-available form of Vitamin C
A quick acting, easy absorption formula which goes on easy, smoothly, and
lightly. Made in the USA (FDA registered facility)
Added benefits of Amino Complex, Botanical Hyaluronic Acid and Organic Aloe
Vera

My thoughts I have been using this for a few weeks now. It is very gentle and easy to use. I don't have a ton of extra time for wiggle room in my beauty routine but this is super fast and simple. I just put a few dots on in the am and pm when my face is clean and it dries in about 30 seconds. I continue with the rest of my makeup during the day or night creams in the evening. I see that my skin looks brighter and fresher in the morning. I simply don't look as exhausted as I did this winter. I really needed something to rev up my routine this spring and I feel like I am seeing a benefit. I think I will notice more of a benefit over the next few months. I will also be diligent as usual with my sunscreen regimen so I don't take any steps backward. Bellitae Organics is an excellent skin care option for anyone who needs a little brighter or fresher
look and doesn’t want a complicated routine. You can pick up Belitae Organics
FRESH-C Vitamin C Serum right
on Amazon for only $15.95.
