Our First Giveaway Contest!

All my Super Moms out there need to hear about this amazing new product that found me! Do you drink coffee and/or tea? And do you also find it super easy to find time for a nutritious, balanced breakfast? Wait...maybe not the second one right? I know for me, coffee is my breakfast some days. I don't even think about crawling to the coffee machine at the crack of dawn everyday. However, I have to almost set an alarm to eat breakfast, and I really don't enjoy eating early in the morning. Why is this a problem?

"Experts recommend consuming protein within 30 minutes of waking up each morning to promote optimum health."
"75% of the human body is made up of protein, and the body needs protein almost as much as it needs water. The body does not naturally create protein--it must be consumed through our diet."

Protein also serves all of these phenomenol purposes:

Strengthen Immune System Burn Fat Improve Memory
Improve Digestion Build Muscle & Healthy Bones
Increase Physical Performance

 

And then there is coffee...which is good for you! Here's a couple of reasons why...

"Caffeinated coffee helps to reduce the risk of diabetes. It stimulates protein which makes insulin more active so it works better!"

"Dark roast coffee helps you look younger! The longer coffee beans are roasted, the more antioxidants are produced, and antioxidants slow the aging process."

 

Now...what about Vitamin D...you know that feel-good-sunshine vitamin?

 

"75% of U.S. teens and adults are deficient in vitamin D, the so-called "sunshine vitamin" whose deficits are increasingly blamed for everything from cancer to heart disease to diabetes, according to new research."

 

What do all of these things have in common? This!

 

 

 It's Ripped Cream...healthy coffee creamer! All the info in the quotes above, I stole from their site, which you should go visit! www.rippedcoffeecreamer.com

 

 

And we are giving some away! Yipee!! I had the opportunity to sample both flavors this week and I can promise you that I will be keeping a constant stash in my coffee cupboard. Unlike other coffee creamers that have no nutritional value, ripped cream has amazing, nutritious ingredients, 11 amino acids, vitamin D and as much protein as an egg in every serving. To top all that off, it is super yummy, smells good and it isn't oily like I find other creamers to be. So I think you need to try some...and why not try it for free?

 

We are going to have a contest this week! I want to see you doing something healthy with your kids. It can be a picture of you exercising with your kids, or eating healthy with your kids. If you don't have kids, you can include family or even your dog (I love dogs!). So post a picture to our MomPossible Facebook page and SHARE it with everyone you know! The two pictures that have the most likes will win a free bag of Ripped Cream. The contest will run from today (2/23), until next Saturday, March 2nd at 10:00pm EST. So get those pictures posted, I can't wait to see all of you're smiling faces!

 

 

 

The awesome Mom Maker of Ripped Cream did send me samples to try, but didn't ask me to provide any sort of review. So everything I wrote here is my own opinion, not paid or promoted. 

 

The Beginning

I can admit that I have no idea what I am doing. Here I am playing with colors and fonts and avoiding all the nitty gritty of putting together a good blog. I am beginning to wonder if I should've dusted off the seventeen mom blogger books sitting on the shelf downstairs...but oh wait now I remember why I haven't tucked away in a corner somewhere for days with a bottomless hot cup o' joe and a few good reading materials to soak in....I'M A MOM!

It will probably take me 3 hours to type out a few paragraphs, maybe even 3 days! If you're a mom, you know how it is. Type two words and all of a sudden your toddler found a way to crawl up the side of the wall and swing from the light fixture to the bookshelf across the room and she now has the fingerpaints you cleverly stashed up there, which she is about to redecorate your living room with if you don't catch her. In the meantime, you may have an infant wriggling awake too early from a nap that you just settled him down for and he will now need your undivided attention until you can get him back to sleep. And then back to the computer...to play with colors and fonts cause you have no idea how to do a real blog.
In the end it should be about content right? Good stuff, that people want to read, all the time. Specifically, good stuff that MOMS want to read all the time. Yep, just another mom blog...but wait wait wait! I am not just another mom blogger...I'm going to be different, special, unique...er, at least I'll try.

 Ok, you are now asking "what type of stuff are you going to be writing about?". Here's a few things...

• How the heck am I supposed to look like Heidi Klum after having 2 kids?
• Before I can look like her, how the heck am I supposed to even get a shower?
• Why can't I eat cupcakes every day?
• Do I really have to blend spinach into a goopy green slime and drink it?
• I haven't slept in 3 months and you want me to do how many squats?
• I can't even go pee without a 3 person, 2 dog audience but I'm supposed to find time relax?
• Can a breastfeeding mom do jumping jacks and keep the girls intact?
• Will I ever go back to normal after birthing a small watermelon?

and more...lots more!

So if you're a mom, with a good sense or humor and a desire to be healthy, happy and balanced (insert a giggle here) then come back for more!

P.S. unless you have insanely awesome genetics, or millions of dollars, looking like this would not be easy...but anything is mompossible ;-)
