Designer Whey Review

I was selected for a Designer Whey campaign through FitFluential! I received all of these products for review purposes.


First of all, can I just say, "WOW!"
This box was packed FULL of awesome stuff! 

Premium Whey Protein Powders: 10/10.
I really enjoyed the Premium Whey Protein Powders. White Chocolate and French Vanilla were the flavors. They were both tasty, but if I had to choose a favorite, it would be White Chocolate because it tasted unique and pretty much like a MILKSHAKE! MMM!!!


Jared tried the protein bars for me, since I don't eat chocolate. 
  8/10.  Tastes very good and very satisfying. I love peanut butter flavored anything and this one doesn't disappoint. The taste is somewhat comparable to other peanut flavored bars but that's not a bad thing. Still would pick this bar because of its lower calories compared to others. 

But, I saved the BEST for last... I was highly impressed by the Protein 2GO Drink Mixes. WOW! These tasted INCREDIBLE. All I had to do was add them to water, shake them up, and go! SO EASY!
Rating: 15/10!!!!
They sent Lemonade, Mixed Berry, and Tropical Orange. 
 The Tropical Orange was my favorite...it tasted like a creamsicle!!!

Bestowed Box Review


Bestowed Box recently sent me a box to review!
Here's some info about Bestowed Box from their website:
In a market as crowded, dynamic, and unregulated as health food and diet, how do you know what's really good??

Unfortunately...you don't. Unless you follow it closely.

Bestowed is the creation of nationally recognized nutritionist and author Heather Bauer and is the answer to all those that have ever stood in the health food section of their local grocery store and said to themselves..."which one of these is really the best??"

Each month, Heather and her team of health and diet experts carefully curate 5 product samples that have caught their attention. Items like nutrition bars, snacks, breakfast cereals, and supplements are just a few of the categories considered.

Bestowed members receive these samples in a box delivered right to their door each month.

We like to think of ourselves as match makers. Introducing the right people to brands that they will absolutely love!

Eat Well!
**************************************************************
My Review: 10/10!
How awesome is it to receive HEALTHY products at your doorstep each month?!? I loved this box because of the nutrition bars and granola the most. Those are some of my favorite things :) This box was full of goodies that I enjoyed!

LunaLing Capris Review


LunaLing sent me a pair of their capris to try and review. Here's some info about LunaLing from their website:
Get smoother, softer skin and lose weight in style with Lunaling Capri. They feel cozy and sleek, hugging you gently from tummy to calves.
Using technology proven to help you lose weight during exercise, Lunaling helps you get the body you want. Suitable for any exercise (or just for wearing around the house), the Capris use your natural body temperature to increase the heat around the areas you care about most (legs, thighs, bum and tum).
In fabric tests, women wearing Lunaling lost weight 4x faster in 30 minutes than they did doing the same exercise with normal gym clothes!

***********************************************************
My Review: 8/10.
 These pants were very form fitting and an interesting type of material. I kind of felt like I was wearing a spacesuit. haha. I did like that they were black, instead of crazy neon colors like a different brand of pants I reviewed in the past. :) I liked that the pants made me sweat a lot, but I wouldn't suggest wearing these during a tough workout. They aren't comfortable and I didn't feel like I could move around very well. I do think these are PERFECT for just walking around though. I'm not trying to lose weight, but I think these would provide an extra jumpstart to someone who is trying to lose weight!

This shampoo and conditioner made my hair feel stronger. It smelled really good, so that was an added bonus! :) After just a week, my hair feels better than ever! Hopefully I can get it nice and strong before the wedding!!!

Anahola Granola Review


Anahola Granola sent me some of their bars to review!
Here's some info from their website: 
Anahola Granola has been hand made in Hawaii since 1986. We believe the simple idea that granola is best when ingredients are fresh, local and unadulterated.  Anahola Granola captures the exotic flavorings of our tropical paradise to bring the fresh Hawaiian taste to you.
All of our products are made with the highest quality ingredients, with no preservatives. We use a healthy portion of nuts and seeds, the best unsulphered tropical fruits available, canola oil and Hawaiian honey. The special flavoring in our products is pure vanilla made from Madagascar beans, which we grind and infuse to our exact specifications.
We bake and pack Anahola Granola by hand and ship throughout Hawaii and the Mainland the next day.


*****************************************************
My Review: 10/10!
These bars were SO chewy and delicious. I loved the coconut flakes on each bar. They added a sweet flavor. 

I enjoyed the Mango Ginger, Tropical, and Original Flavors. They all tasted fabulous. My favorite part about these bars was the TEXTURE! So soft and chewy, they didn't hurt your jaw like some other granola bars do. 

Jared is going to try the Chocolate Chip flavor when I see him next... but I KNOW he will love it.... Coconut and chocolate?!?! That's his FAVORITE!!!

LAS VEGAS!!!!!!


Jared and I spent five days in LAS VEGAS with his parents over Spring Break! ALL I GOTTA SAY IS .... "WOW!" It was sooooooo much fun!!! I didn't get a ton of pics on my phone because I didn't carry my purse a lot. Jared got a ton on his phone, but I'm too lazy to put them all on mine... haha. 

We went to Hoover Dam. 


It was BEAUTIFUL!
 

I enjoyed scaring Jared half to death on the bridge... ;) 
He was hugging the wall the whole time, except to take one pic, so I have to brag on him for being brave for that one minute. haha. :) 


We saw Cirque Du Soleil's "Mystere" show.
It was incredible!!! I wish we could take pics, but we weren't allowed. If you ever get the opportunity to go see a show, DO IT! It's amazing!!!
:)

We had a wonderful time just walking up and down the strip. We did a LOT of walking! There was no need to worry about not having a gym because we got PLENTY of cardio! 


We got some really cute pics inside the outrageously decorated hotels. 

I am so thankful for his parents letting me tag along. It was a trip I'll NEVER forget!!!
:) 


Wedding Countdown... 107 days!!!!!!!!!!!

The Carrot Cake didn't taste EXACTLY like carrot cake, because it was missing the frosting. It was definitely pretty close for an oatmeal flavor though! :)

Blueberry Scone was a dessert-y taste! MMMM!!!
