****** Congratulations to our winner, Emilie from Doritos for Dinner! ******

I’ve officially been on Weight Watchers for two weeks, and I’ve officially lost 6.6 pounds. Woohoo!

Our friends at Yummie Tummie are helping me celebrate by giving me and one lucky reader $100 gift certificates for YummieTummie.com!

Last January I had the opportunity to review and do a giveaway for Yummie Tummie shapewear (you can see that post here), and let me tell you, I LOVE THIS STUFF.

Yummie Tummie is the first shapewear brand that is comfy, sexy, and meant to be seen. The tank tops and t-shirts slim your torso and smooth everything out (not that any of have anything to smooth out, of course!) – they really make a difference in how clothes fit and look. And if you don’t believe me, go check out Casey’s before-and-after photos here… because let me just tell you, you will never ever find pictures like that on this site! That is, unless Jenny’s pilates REALLY works out for her!

The best part about Yummie Tummie? Besides, you know, making you look skinnier, of course… They are incredibly comfortable. I have worn my tanks nearly every day since I got them last December, and now I feel kind of strange when I don’t have one on! I love the support they give me, and I love that they don’t make it hard to breathe.

Or hard to pee.

In any case, I was all set to order the Lace Print Strappy:

But then I saw Casey’s post, and now I’m thinking about getting the Skinny Tank:

I can’t decide! I may have to order them both.

But now to the important stuff – how you can enter.

Here’s the deal. You can get up to four entries by doing the following things:
1) Go to YummieTummie.com and then leave a comment here telling us your favorite style.

Yummie Tummie works for me – for more WFMW, head over to We are THAT Family.

Emily and I are excited to give Cincinnati and Dayton area families the opportunity to win tickets to a SUPER fum family event -Disney on Ice Presents 100 Years of Magic! As you may remember, Emily is slightly Disney-obsessed, and I may or may not be holding out hope that my little Sophie comes to love Cinderella and Snow White as much as I did when I was a girl. Who doesn’t have a great Disney memory?

This show, packed with all your and your kids’ favorite Disney characters, is coming to Dayton’s Nutter Center September 17-20 and Cincy’s US Bank Arena September 23-25.

One of our lucky readers will win a family four-pack of tickets to the Cincy opener at US Bank Arena on Thursday, September 23rd. Here’s how to enter:

1) Leave a comment on this post telling us which Disney character is your favorite.

2) If you are on Facebook, become a fan of Disney on Ice here, then come back to this post and leave a comment on this post telling us you did so.

3) Tweet about this giveaway on Twitter, and then leave a comment on this post with your tweet URL.

One winner will be chosen by random.org on Saturday, September 12th. Good luck!
