A Marvelous Mess #59 and Features!!!

Whew, it's time for me to get back in the mood for crafting. I've taken a major timeout recently....if you follow this blog much you might have noticed the complete lack of creative posts. Too much OCD in my life, and it kind of took over for a while. Well, I'm coming out of it!!! All the creative ideas you guys have been linking up have helped to inspire me. Thanks so much to all of you for keeping up with this party!!

Here are my fave's from last week!!

Safslim Review and Giveaway!!!!


**We're going to try this giveaway AGAIN....as the possible winners last time did not leave any way for me to contact them!!**

I've been busting my butt recently to lose some weight....I'll be going on a trip to South Carolina soon and I'm hoping to wear my summer dresses proudly...........and not only that, but I just really need to lose some weight and get in shape. I've only got this body right?? I need to treat it better (for me and for my family).

So, on top of a new exercise program (Curves, yay!!!) and substituting protein shakes for some meals, I have also been trying a new product called Safslim. The Safslim Belly Fat Solution combines a safflower oil liquid supplement (that you take 1 tablespoon of two times a day) as well as a reduced calorie diet and exercise routine.

Why Safflower Oil??

*A double blind study done by Ohio State University showed that overweight, post meno-pausal woman with high blood sugar lost an average of 6.3% belly fat over 16 weeks.
*The study also showed that safflower oil increased the belly fat hormone adiponectin 20.3%

Safslim comes in two great flavors, Berry Cream and Tangerine cream. I loved both flavors. You can add it to something if you like (yogurt) or you can just take it by the spoonful. I just took it by the spoonful.

I would say I've had great results!! I have definitely lost some inches around my waist and that is usually the *last* place the weight leaves my body when I start exercising.... so, I think I can credit Safslim for some of that!! Also, I like the taste and it's a really easy addition to a weight loss routine. I really think you guys ought to give it a try......

So, here's a chance to win 2 Bottles of Safslim and the book "Belly Fat Breakthrough: Smart Science for Transforming Your Body"

Giveaway Ends April the 28th at Midnight, EST

A Marvelous Mess #58 and Features!!!

Sorry I missed the party last week....I was on vacation in South Carolina!! Here is the beach we planted our butts on for a whole week.
We also got a chance to go to a butterfly garden. 
It was lovely there. I even got to hold onto a newly born Julia butterfly, like the one above. 

So, did any of you do anything for Earth Day?? We planted seeds and bought a Blueberry Bush. 
I am really excited to see what all of you have been up to this past couple of weeks!! 

Here are my fave's from the last week:
