For the past several weeks, I've been reviewing workout gear from Champion SHAPE™ as a "Shape Your Life Ambassador." And I have to say, it has been fabulous! It makes me look and feel great and it makes Zumba extra fun! What I really adore about Champion Gear is that the clothes keep you dry. The materials they use wicks away moisture and makes you less sticky, which I like because I sweat when I workout. YUK! As a mom of three with a house to run and a needy husband (LOL), I'm usually … [Read more...]

For those of you who have met me in person, you may be (possibly) saying, nah, Lisa's not overweight, but if you look below -- I am. I'm 5'2 and I weigh … [Read more...]

In the August edition of Elle Magazine, there is a coupon card for a free t-shirt. It's their way of supporting text-free driving. They want us to focus on driving so that we can get to our destination safely (we should already be doing this).

By showing your support, all you have to do is take the card to any Express store, buy a … [Read more...]
