Sexy Saturday

VS Pro Illuminator


VS PRO Radiant FX Face Illuminator


 I love this stuff girls! You can mix it with your foundation for an all over glow or use it as a highlight on your lips, eyes, and nose. It's a Victory Secret in the beauty section for about 15 bucks. Try it out and let me know what you think.



This is me with just a pea size drop of VS Pro & face moisturizer. I use this when I want a nice even glow with no makeup... The dewy look is always in style.


This is VS Pro as a highlighter... a bit on the nose, cheeks and Cupid's bow for a natural glow.


LOVE IT!

I workout ???






Back in the day I was the skinny friend... you know... the girl everyone lovingly referred to as "the skinny b***h". Well these days I'm not so skinny, at least in my mind. I was once coasting along at a comfy 110lbs. I am now finding myself creeping up towards the 130 mark and I am desperately trying to fight my way back down to about 115. So in my attempt to get back to the body I am oh so accustomed to. I have decided to try a few weight loss products to help me get motivated.


First up is Tonalin Cla:



Listed on the bottle Tonalin claims to:
  • reduce body fat
  • increase muscle retention
  • helps keep fat off & prevent regain
In my experience this doesn't work. My tummy did not look like the bottle after one week of use. In fact I did not see any change at all! I ate the same food and stayed in bed all day like normal, but for some reason this crap wasn't working. With that being said on to the next.

OxyElite Pro:



Now, if you're looking for instant results I say this baby is right up your alley. Oxyelite is no hoe in the energy department. After 20 minutes of swallowing this gem you will feel like running a triathlon in the pouring rain, in cowboy boots. Its a great energy booster partially because it has 100 mg of caffeine. (M.A* and I take them when we need a quick pick me up after a long night of partying... don't judge us) I have never done speed but it has to feel something like oxyelite. As far as losing weight goes it definitely suppresses your appetite so much so you have to force yourself to eat. And I did just that...  I forced myself to eat and I saw marginal results from my usage. I should note that Oxyelite does have rather um... interesting side effects such as depression & anxiety but who cares... you will be fit and sexy in a bikini so you have to weigh the good and bad...

Third and Final 24 hour fitness:


OK... so the gym would be the traditional method and that is exactly why this was at the bottom of my list. Who wants to work out when you can eat what you want, do nothing and have a supermodel body? Dreams do come true right? Anyway, my experience at the gym was great my first day. Paired with baby speed  Oxyelite and a tread mill I was unstoppable! Since then I've been in the gym almost everyday and a few of my observations have provided a good laugh while people watching from my elliptical machine.

  • How do you go to the gym and get a full read in... I'm sweating bullets on these damn machines all the while Suzy fit body is reading Fifty Shades of Grey. I don't understand.
  • This is a gym right? Why do I feel like this is the end of the night at a night club and guys are looking around to see who looks good once the lights get turned on? I mean seriously. I don't know about the rest of the world but I'm so not interested in any guy while I'm sweating out my weave... how could you possibly be attracted to anyone in the gym?
Still I must keep pressing on... Obesity is next to death to me so I shall be a size 2 again.



*M.A. is my man, my boo, my all... so if you see him tell him I said that.



In the beginning...


So how shall I begin? Well... having had several blogs the past several years, I'm right back where I started... I guess its kinda coming full circle. This go rounds is my attempt to share a little about myself, my journey and how my mind works. Enjoy the ride...
