Do you have someone in your life who encourages you to take care of yourself? Someone who urges you (and helps make it possible for you) to take time for YOU and make healthy choices? I am blessed to have a good friend named Jen who does this for me. She watches my kids when I need a break, suggests natural cures for what ails me (like melatonin for my sleep and raw ginger for my morning sickness) and she has even cleaned my house and shoveled my driveway for me when I needed it! She is my Wellness Ambassador!
Recently Kellogg’s FiberPlus gave me the opportunity to recognize Jen and thank her for all she does for me – they treated us to a Wellness Day – a girls’ day at the spa! We had a wonderful time talking, relaxing, getting pampered, and taking time for US. And to just chill together. It was awesome! We got our pretty little nails and toes done, treated ourselves to lunch, and just got to spend some quality time together. And I got to show her how much I appreciate her!
As a busy mom, I am very guilty of putting myself last – my wellness, my mental health, all of it – and I know you probably are too! So take this reminder from Kellogg’s FiberPlus to slow down and take some time to really think about and act positively toward your wellness. It’s the best things we as moms can do for our kiddos, is to do everything we can to be around for them as long as they need us!
Kellogg’s FiberPlus wants you to know how important it is to take care of yourself! They have lots of healthy snack offerings and to encourage you to try them, they’re letting me give away 25 coupons for a free box of Kellogg’s FiberPlus bars. They are good for you and they are YUMMY. (Chocolate Chip and Chocolate Peanut Butter are my favorites. Just sayin’.)

I try to buy low fat foods for my family and not fry anything.
I’m Wellness Ambassador for my family! I make sure there are plenty of fruits and vegetables and other healthy snacks around so they reach for those instead of junk!

I cook daily at home, and use less fat while cooking. Thanks for the giveaway.
I act as a Wellness Ambassador for my family especially my parents. I will watch my nieces to give my parents a break. I also encourage healthy eating at celebrations.
