Colony Review: Turbo Jam

Okay, I bought a sort of "preview" version of Turbo Jam about a year ago. I loved the Sculpt portion, and the Cardio Party was fun...but my two year old would never let me get through it, so I put it away in favor of quicker workouts that I could do in parts.

So now, he is infatuated with watching Diego, Spongebob, and Sesame Street, and I can concentrate on my waistline again. So, I ordered the original Turbo Jam 5 DVD pack from Amazon for a great $39.00.

My last go with Turbo Jam left me feeling revived, and about an inch or so off my waist in a really short time. I need a good 5 inches off my waist, so I am ready to get the Turbo Jam party started...

So over the next few weeks, look for my reviews of Turbo Jam as I work my way through the workouts, and I will let you know how effective or ineffective they are. And since I am both dedicated to my waist and my Queen Bees, I will be following a five day schedule per week, to give you maximum gain and to give me maximum loss!!!!

Nectar: HiJinx Noggins

I love handmade and personalized items, they are great for picky people like me, who really like things made just for them. On Etsy, one of my favorite sites, you can
find lots of wonderful goodies that are tailored to your special needs.
After purchasing a brown heathered wool coat, I needed a special hat to go with it.
I found this site on etsy:



HiJinx features Noggins, crocheted hats in a bunch of great colors, that hug the head and feature a short brim that can be worn up or down. This was my first noggin:



It went perfectly with my coat, it fit perfectly on my head,and it was perfectly stylish and affordable at only $15.00.....YES, $15.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was so happy with my first purchase that I decided to buy another,and I cannot wait to receive it so I can add it to my hat wardrobe. With Michigan winters being long and cold, these hats will get plenty of wear and will keep me warm and stylish!!!!

Thanks HiJinx!

Colony Reviews: Insolia

I love a four inch heel...there is no better cure for a pair of short legs.
Unfortunately, is not a reciprocal love affair, as four inch heels are pure torture
for my low archs. I have chosen to suffer in some instances, where style was simply a priority, but for the most part, I forego those heeled beauties for more pratical (yet still cute) shoes.

TADA!

These Insolia High Heel Inserts are like the fairy godmother of shoes. They WILL NOT make a four inch heel feel like a flat, but they will shift your weight off the ball of your foot, where most of the pain occurs, and give you a more balanced and much more comfortable experience in your teetering shoes.

I have found that I can dance for hours in my three to three in a half inch heels now, with no problem. As for those four inch babies, I have decided to give those up for 2008...there is simply no need to torture onesself!
