A Cat Litter that Helps Monitor your Cat’s Health? Pretty Litter

I received a product sample for review purposes. Any opinions expressed are my own. This post does contain affiliate links.

We are a three cat family. Each cat has their own litter box which is important for several reasons. One, it helps with new cat introductions. Two, it can help cut down on spraying issues. Three, you know which cat might be having issues just from what’s in their litter box. It’s easier to tell with #2 but harder to tell when your cat goes #1. Until now.

Pretty Litter isn’t just a cat litter, it helps monitor your cats health with cat litter that changes color with ph changes in your cat’s urine.

I’ve posted about it before but the newer member of the feline sister is my F3 Savannah cat Malkia. I wanted a Savannah for a long time and my husband finally let me get her for my birthday/Christmas/anniversary present last year. As a more unique breed, I definitely have concerns about her health. While Savannahs are generally a healthy breed, I want to be on top of things if something isn’t right.

I was concerned about how she would take to a new litter since she’s only used the same brand of pellets since she started litter training. Pretty litter is feline-safe, scoopable, odor controlling, landfill disposable, low dust, and absorbant. One bag last 1 month per cat. I cleaned her litter box out well and filled it up with the pretty litter.

It did take Malkia a few days to adjust to the new litter but she got it. The litter made it easy to scoop. There was a different in the odor absorbing capability compared to the litter we had been using. The Pretty litter crystals are small enough that they easily sift through a litters scoop.

You can see the light greenish color splash on the right of the litter box. This put’s Malkia’s Ph levels in a typical range so that’s good. Having a health monitoring cat litter is just a little more peace of mind for our furry addition to the family.

HourGlass Angel Review & Coupon Link

I received a review sample at no cost in order to complete this review. Any opinions expressed are my own.

I’m a Dealspotr Influencer and I’ve founds some awesome coupons on Dealspotr including one for HourGlass Angel which I’m going to talk to you about.

Corsets and waist trainers seem to be making a big comeback. You’re seeing celebs like Kim Kardashian and and Snooki trying it out. You see corsets as a fashion statement or accessory from people like Nikki Minaj and Christina Aguilera. And man, there are some stylish corsets out there.

I honestly only wanted a simple one. I wanted something that was comfortable that I could wear under a dress or shirt to help hide my belly for special occasions. Hourglass Angel has all types of corsets and waist trainers from simple to highly fashionable.

The below pictures is me in a more form fitting shirt I own. Unfortunately you can see some of my lumps and bumps and not the ones I’d like to show off.

I put on my corset which at first I was worried I wouldn’t be able to get on. It had a lot of hooks like bra hooks but mine had some stretch to it and once I got a few done, the rest were easy.

You can see in this pictures my belly looks more taught. The “love handles” aren’t as obvious” I tried it on over top of shirts so you can see how this particular corset looks.

As you can see mine is plain and is not meant to be showing. Mine allows me to move more which I need with having 4 kids and a healthcare job. I do think it helps to enhance my bust area too. Hourglass Angel has tons of different options, colors, and styles. You’re sure to find what you want.

Starting Personal Trainer Food

I have the great opportunity of trying Personal Trainer Food at no cost as part of the Tryazon Tryabox program. Any opinions expressed are my own. I’m not required to do a blog post. I just decided to post for anyone that might be thinking about Personal Trainer Food.

So I had to buy bigger pants for the fall. I’m definitely not proud of that. The bad part is I got 5 pairs of jeans I ordered from an online consignment site. 5 pairs all the same size, different companies. 3 of them fit, one I got on but was kind of snug, the 5th one I couldn’t even pull up over my butt. It was the first time in my life that I actually wanted to cry when trying on clothes. I’ve had to buy a size bigger pants and shorts the last two years. I don’t want to continue this trend.

I tried a popular program about 2 years ago. I did it for 4 months following it pretty strictly. Following the diet (but I was always hungry) doing the daily exercises (but I never progressed far with certain ones because they bothered my joints). I lost 12 lbs in 4 months. Then I injured my back at work. within 2 months I had gained it all back and then some. I’m not good at meal prepping.

Well after the “pants incident” I knew I needed to do something I just didn’t know what. Then Tryazon sent me an email that peaked my interest. Apply for the Personal Trainer Food Challenge. I read about it and said, you know what this just might work for me. I applied and they chose me. I even get to bring my brother Derek from the blog Help Me I’m a Father along for the ride. We’re teammates now whether he likes it or not lol.

I got to choose my food and I was excited about the choices I had. No meal prepping! When my box was delivered it was absolutely stuffed with food and their sweet butter garlic sauce.

I got to choose from things like: teriyaki chicken, chicken tenders, angus burgers, sausage, meatballs, and more. Y’all I can have bacon! The top thing that really appealed to me was NO MEAL PREP. I just go in my freezer, choose what I want to eat, heat it up, enjoy! I’m on my 3rd day so far. The meals are filling I DON’T FEEL HUNGRY! This is the first eating plan I’ve been on where I didn’t feel hungry. Sometimes I don’t even know if I can finish my whole meal. I can eat unlimited amounts of meat, veggies, eggs, and even diet soda if I want. So what’s the down side? No sugar, no carbs, like …at all. But honestly, the meals are so filling I don’t even miss it so far.

So this is my photo before I started the PTF Challenge. What do I hope to accomplish in 28 days? I would love to see a reduction in my midsection, thighs, and butt. I’m not asking for miracles just for my current pants to be a little more loose. I’d like to break bad habits. I’d like to have a little more energy. I’d like to see my face less round. I’d like to see a few pounds down. If I’m dreaming I’d like to lose 20 lbs but I’d be happy with even 5 or 10 when it’s over.

There is no strenuous or non-joint friendly exercises. Walk 20 minutes per day is what they want. I love walking. I actually did a 33 minute walk today according to my fitbit. Lots of places to go for support. The Personal Trainer Food Support facebook group lets you ask questions and find encouragement. I opted into the Personal Trainer Food text message support which sends friendly reminders, encouragement, and achievable challenges.

I also signed up for The Biggest Loser Challenge at my workplace with some great coworkers who jumped on board. Accountability, goals, good food. That’s going to go a long way.

The first time I bought My La La Leggings I bought a shirt and shorts because I needed a new outfit for the summer (this was about 2 years ago).

Then I heard about how I could become a My La La Leggings affiliate for FREE and get a 25% off discount. No selling requirements, no monthly fees. So I signed up just to get the discount. Then I started sharing pictures of the products here and there and I’ve sold more items with this business than any other I’ve tried. It’s really stress-free. They offer bigger discounts now and then for affiliates and even offer discounts to customers from time to time.
