<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As a mom of four kids, a wife, and taking online classes, it's safe to say I stay busy... sometimes too busy. It can be hard to find time to make sure each kid gets what they need from you. Right when I needed it, I was offered to review to this book.</span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I really found this book helpful in dealing with my kids,
especially since I do have one that is very sensitive, and I have to approach
things with him differently. With four kids, it can sometimes be easy to not worry
about others needing attention when they don't ask for it. But, this helped me
realized that may need that attention and be asking for it in different ways. I need to be more aware of their body language and facial expressions, not just their words. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I
love the examples given in the book about encouraging good behavior without shaming them. I plan to try them and hope to help build them up positively, without the shame. This book covers a lot of good techniques with how to handle things in a
positive way so that our kids grow and learn to handle problems well into adulthood. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I'm halfway through (hard to find time to read), but I appreciate this book so
much and the advice I am getting from it for me and my kids. Definitely a book
worth reading for any parent, or anyone that works with kids!</span><o:p></o:p></div>

<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Cheesecake??? That's low carb??? And tastes amazing??? If you are like me, you doubted that, too! But guess what? It does exists! And it is so easy to make! And you can change it up by using other flavors of jello! I used strawberry banana, because it was the only one I had at the time. This is a must try! Even if you aren't on a low carb diet, this is still amazing!</span></div>

<b><span style="color: #a64d79; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Weight loss progress!</span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So the past week, I was trying really hard. But... things happened. Kids were sick. Which, in turn got me sick. That lovely "time" of the month. I had gained 2 of my pounds back. Then, I lost them and lost 2 more. Hoping week 3 will be better.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I started to take some pictures to show the progress, but I personally don't see any difference. Although, I can feel a difference. My shorts are more comfortable and not so tight around my thighs. I noticed around my chin and neck looks a little lighter. I'm getting there. Like they say, "slow and steady wins the race."</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">A lot of people may think that 6 pounds is not much. Maybe not, but for someone like me, who struggles to lose weight... this is a big accomplishment! And I am very proud of myself. Especially for trying so hard to stick to low carb eating. But, I'm doing it. Not for myself, but for my kids. So I can be around longer for them. So I can enjoy running with them.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I wanted something different than a shake for once. So, I got to looking and found this recipe. I tried it out, and loved it! Before tasting it, I was expecting the taste of waffles. This kinda disappointed me. It tastes more like sweet scrambled eggs. Don't get me wrong, it was very good and I will eat it again... but don't expect it to taste like waffles, haha.</span><br />

Shake time! This shake - pictured above - has coffee in it. I wanted to see how it'd be. But, I used normal in it. So it wasn't that strong. I think it would be better with some instant coffee for that strong taste. I need to buy some. I usually have a shake for breakfast and dinner, then my low carb meal for lunch.</div>

I also have some add in flavors for my shakes; strawberry and chocolate. Both are soooo good! I am tempted to get some mint extract and try that in my chocolate shakes. Mint chocolate... mmm! Sounds good, right? I need to do that. </div>

I do miss my bread. But I'm getting by without it. Since it is just me and the kids at home most of the time, I normally did not eat much anyways. But would snack on junk; chips, cookies, bread. And I feel full with this low carb diet. I'm liking my meals, too. Here's a few...<br />

But, we do need to worry about our health, too. So, after a few years of saying I needed to lose weight and be healthier, I'm finally getting serious about it. I recently turned 30, and I need to do this for my health. Three kids - huge kids, one right under the ten pound mark at birth - really did a number on me. My self-esteem has dropped. I need to fix that. And with the health problems that run in my family, it puts me at a bigger risk of developing those problems. So, May 31st, I started and I will not - cannot - stop.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-size: large;">The Reason</span><br />
Like I said, I need to become healthier. Yes, it will be nice to look better, but ultimately, I'm doing this to better myself. To become healthier. To be here longer (unless by some unseen accident) for my kids. I want to lower my chances to last longer without health problems. I currently don't have any - unless you count allergy/sinus problems - and I'd like to stay that way longer. Just overweight.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-size: large;">My Goals</span><br />
I want to be at a healthy weight. No, I don't need to get back to my weight from before having kids. I just want to be at a healthy weight. And I'd like to be able to run with my kids without needing to stop every five seconds huffing and puffing. I'd also like to volunteer to be a coach for my kid during soccer season once and awhile.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #a64d79; font-size: large;">Progress</span><br />
Since starting, I've lost 5 pounds already. I've been iffy on whether I should post a before photo right now since, as with most women, I don't feel good about how I look. But, I will post it, and by doing so, I hope it can keep me motivated.<br />

I've saying for a long time I need to do better. I was last year, but was thrown off track due to family trouble. Time to get back into it. Debating if I should post about my progress or not. <div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But this is my journey. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My adventure. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To love myself more. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To be more active. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To feel better. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To better my health. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I'm really hoping to be in better shape by the fall so I can volunteer to coach soccer for my boys.<br /><br /><div>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Me, finally fulfilling my dream and seeing a panda in person!</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
So one day while going through Starbucks drive thru, the lady in the window saw my phone case. A panda. She called it cute, asks where I got it, and told me she likes cats. (I have a panda wallet, panda stuffed toys, panda art, etc etc.) Then she says, " I'm from China, so I've seen enough pandas."<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
My. Jaw. Dropped.<br />
<br />
Seen... Enough?<br />
Is that possible?!<br />
<br />
I mean, come on!! We're talking about pandas here! That's like saying, "I've seen enough puppies." No! No, you can't see enough!<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It just really threw me for a loop. Yes, I know you can get enough of some things; ice cream, sun, a joke you've heard a million times. But come on! We're talking about PANDAS!!! That's in a category all on its own!<br />
<br />
I finally got to see a panda in person, after years of being obsessed with them, on December 20, 2015. At the Memphis, Tennessee zoo while we were driving from Texas to my parents, in North Carolina. It was very emotional for me. I could not believe it... I was watching a panda, in person! Not videos, not pictures, but in person... right in front of me! I fell to my knees and cried. It was amazing, it was wonderful. I will never forget it. I hope to go back again.<br />

<b>What is "self love"?</b> Regard for one's own well-being and happiness. -- That's Google's definition of it. But also, self love is also about loving the way you look. These days, so many people - men and women - are trying to change themselves to how society <i>thinks</i> they should look. For a long time, I hated how I looked. Even when I was at my smallest, I still felt I was ugly.<br />
<br />
After 3 kids, my body become something I had hated. I have a kangaroo pouch (yes, the flap of fat that hangs from my huge babies, I call my <i>kangaroo pouch</i>), I have extra weight I didn't use to have, I have insane stretch marks, etc etc. I could go on and on.<br />
<br />
You know what though? My husband still thinks I'm beautiful. Shouldn't that be enough? Who cares what others say. At the end of the day, who is it that will always be there by your side, holding you while you sleep? Your mate. <i>No one else</i>.<br />

<span style="font-size: x-small;">Recent pic with my husband at the aquarium for the kids.</span></div>
<div style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">See? Sleeveless. And it's a dress.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
One thing I hated most about myself was my arms. I'm still not a fan of them. I would never wear sleeveless shirts because I was too worried about what others would think of my arms. Now that I have three kids, even though they're boys, I don't want them growing up seeing me being worried what others think. I want to set an example for them, that beauty is what's on the inside, and it comes in different forms. So, I've been pushing myself to wear sleeveless shirts. In this Texas heat, I'm surprised I didn't do it sooner. I'm also stepping out of my comfort-zone and trying to wear dresses more.<br />
<br />
No one is perfect. There is no such thing as the "perfect" body. There's just <b>you</b>. We all are unique and special. And it's time we start realizing that and stop letting tv, magazines, books, whatever, tell us how we should look, or how we should act.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Be you. Be unique. We only have this one life. Why waste it being someone we're not? That's what I'm working on for myself. Don't get me wrong... I am trying to eat better and lose some weight. But <i>only</i> to be healthy and avoid health problems later in life for as long as possible. My goal is to live a long, happy, and healthy life... <b>loving myself</b> along the way.</div>

My 3 year old loves dinosaurs. When he first started talking, he couldn't say dinosaurs. So he called them "dines." It was so cute and I loved it. Now, he picks up his dinosaur and says, "look, Mommy, a dinosaur!" First time I heard him say the full word, I wanted to cry. I even asked him about his "dine." But, "no, Mommy, it dinosaur." I died a little inside that day.</div>

1 can crescent rolls (pinch together seams)<br />
8 oz cream cheese, room temperature<br />

Ok, so first things first... <b>What is Scentsy?</b> Scentsy began with a simple idea—a safe, wickless alternative to scented candles—and quickly grew into oneof the most successful direct selling companies in the industry. Unique Scentsy warmers use a low-watt bulb to melt specially formulated wax slowly, maximizing its fragrance time. With no flame, soot, or wick, the Scentsy wickless candle system is a safe way to enjoy more than 80 Scentsy fragrances</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
There's so much to choose from - Scentsy bars, warmers (full-size, mid-size, plug-in), solids, buddies, on-the-go - that you're bound to find something you'll love!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
I use Scentsy in every room of my house. Seriously! And if you're like me, dealing with horrible year-round allergies, don't worry! There are scents that won't bother you! I tend to stay away from the strong and/or flowery scents. I like the soft scents, like Simply Vanilla, Just Breathe, Sunkissed Citrus (love this in the kitchen!)... just to name a few.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
So today, I'm going to test some random scents sent to me and give my thoughts on each one.</div>

<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<i>Blessings</i>. A classic blend of aromatic spices: ground nutmeg and clove, cinnamon bark, sandalwood and amber. To me, it's a nice scent. Almost smells like a pie baking over a wood stove. I could see myself warming, but not often.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<i>Clove & Cinnamon</i>. I couldn't find this on the site to get the description of it, so I'll just tell you what I think. Just like it's name, it's smells just like cloves and cinnamon. I'm not a big fan of spicy scents, but this isn't as strong as I thought it would be. My husband would love this. It seems like a manly scent.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<i>Sedona Sunset</i>. Flamboyant desert lily and vanilla orchid enliven creamy coconut milk and ethereal jasmine. I'm not sure how to describe this one. I kinda like it. The jasmine is a bit much. I wouldn't use it for that, because it does make it a bit strong, in my opinion.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<i>Pink Haze</i>. A sweet confection of berries, nectarines and vanilla-laced whipped cream nestled in marshmallow fondant. This is a strong sweet smell. I love sweet smelling scents! I could see myself using this a lot.</div>

<i>Enchanted Mist</i>. Romantic blend of juicy apples, enhanced and sweetened by rose petals and rich jasmine. This one I have tried before and used many times. I don't use it in the part of the house where I'm at mostly, because it is a bit strong and bothers my allergies, but I do love the scent. It's a very fresh, outdoor type smell. I really like it.</div>

Looking for a quick meal that's full of flavor? Then look so further! This is fast, easy, and ready to eat in hardly no time! And you only need a few ingredients.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Ingredients</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2 tbsp of oil</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2 lbs of chicken, cut into cubes</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1 can (26 oz) cream of chicken</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1 cup water</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2 bags (16 oz each) frozen vegetable and pasta blend</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Directions</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1. Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until it's well browned, stirring often.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2. Stir the soup, water and vegetable pasta blend into the skillet. Heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until the chicken and pasta are done.</div>

<b>My Thoughts</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I only used 1 lb of chicken, and since I couldn't find the vegetable/pasta blend, I used half a box of the cork-screw pasta and half a bag of 16 oz, frozen vegetable mix. Other than that, we loved it! Even my 3 year old, who is the pickiest eater <i>EVER</i>, ate this and loved it! I actually made up more just to keep (froze some) for him when he wants it.</div>

With the cold weather, I've been wanting hot chocolate. But, I haven't had any. So I decided to make my own. And love it!!! So I'm sharing. Sharing <i>IS</i> caring!</div>

<b>Homemade Hot Cocoa</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1 cup cocoa</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
1 cup sugar</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Optional: 1 cup chocolate chips</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Mix everything together! Ta-da!</div>

I used white chocolate chips in mine. Mmm! So good! Change it up: <u>try peanut butter chips, butterscotch, etc</u>. Or, if you prefer, <u>add a tablespoon or two of cinnamon</u>. You can change this up to your liking any way you want. I've also seen some recipes <u>add powdered milk</u> to their's, but I think it's perfect this way. Just add a spoonful into your cup, hot water, a little creamer, and it's great! Now, I have hot cocoa to enjoy on these cold days. </div>

There's people out there who understand. People who have been in the same shoes. Me, included. I didn't have a bad life growing up. I just had my own monsters no one ever saw (I still do). Reach out. Call the number. Or email me - mrsmamapanda@gmail.com - if you just need a listening ear. Sometimes we all just need an ear to listen to tell us, "it's okay, I'm here for you."</div>

<b>Jackpot Candles</b>... what is that? Simple. It's a candle with a hidden jackpot! These 100% soy candles have hidden things inside that can be valued from $5 - $5,000. You can choose what "jackpot" you want inside; ring, necklace, or earrings. And to make it better, you can choose what size ring to receive, which I loved and appreciated. Not only that, but each item comes with a code so you can go to their site, enter the code, and find out for free what your piece of jewelry is worth. I thought that was awesome. Candles are $24.95 each.</div>

I chose the Candy Hearts candle - Love is sweet. Love is spicy. Love is forever. The aroma of this scented candle offers a combination of candied confections including leading tones of vanilla and sugar with subtle hints of cinnamon. - I'm very pleased with the scent. Nice and soft. Just the right mix.</div>

<b>Overall</b>... I'm very pleased with the candle. It smells great, it's pretty, I can reuse the jar it comes in, and get a piece of jewelry. The ring is exactly what I like in rings and since I got to choose my size, I can wear it right away. These would make a <i>great </i>and<i> fun</i> gift for anyone!</div>

I found this recipe in a diabetic magazine that my mother-in-law left over at my house one day. I'm trying to get back into trying new recipes (three kids put a break on that), and this seemed easy. Looked good, too. So I tried it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We loved it!!! It has a great flavor, and was super easy to throw together in the crock pot then leave it be. I paired it with some mexican rice. Perfect! </div>

I loved all the samples except the <i>sunrise crunchy vanilla</i>. It tastes good as it hits your mouth but then leaves a nasty aftertaste in your mouth that wouldn't leave. The <i>coffee</i> had a nice, smooth flavor. I really enjoyed it. I already liked <i>tums</i>, but these two new ones? Wow! I really like the tums freshers... the mint helps the upset stomach as well as leave a nice feeling in your mouth. The chewy tums tasted like candy. They were good. The <i>wipes</i> were nice as well. I was pleased.<br />

Origami Owl is popular for their living lockets. They have them in silver, gold, rose gold, black... with crystals, without crystals... mini, medium, large, and a heart shaped locket. The first thing someone usually wonders when looking at the lockets is, "how many charms fit in there?" Not only will I tell you, I'm going let you see for yourself.<br />
<br />
<div>
Large lockets: fits 7-12 charms</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Medium lockets: 3-7 charms</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Mini lockets: 1-3 charms</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Heart shaped lockets: 4-7 charms</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
*** Some charms are smaller than others, which is why you might fit more with certain charms. </div>

I love Sam's Club. Why? Mostly for the free food samples, haha. But now, they have a machine that gives each card holder one free sample of something. Last time I went, it was Bigelow Green Tea and Truvia.<br />
<br />
On this cold day for Texas, I decided to try it. I knew I liked the Truvia. I've had it before. It has a nice sweet taste to it. As for the tea, I'm not a big fan of green tea, but tried anyways. It's really good. Has a nice, <i>smooth</i> taste. No <i>bitterness</i>. I was impressed. And it's 100% organic. I might possibly get more. I'm really enjoying it!!<br />
