A Girls Wellness Day & Kellogg’s FiberPlus Giveaway

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’.)

Here’s how to enter:

1) Leave a comment on this post telling me how YOU act as a Wellness Ambassador for someone in your life.

2) Tweet about this giveaway on Twitter.  Tweet about how you promote wellness and include @jennyitup and #kelloggsfiberplus in your tweet.

3) “Like” the Mommin’ It Up facebook page or leave us a comment here telling us you already do! Feel free to write on our wall about how you act as a Wellness Ambassador for someone in your life.

This giveaway will end Thursday December 16, 2010 at 5 pm.  Winners will be chosen at random and notified by email on Friday, December 17th.  Check out the complete giveaway rules here.

Good luck!  And thanks to Kellogg’s FiberPlus for reminding us how important wellness is and giving Jen and I such a wonderful Wellness Day out!

  1. I am a Wellness Ambassador to my mother. She is a diabetic. I help her to watch the things she eats. (Shes a chocoholic) and also with her weight. She doesn’t always follow the rules.

  3. I make wise choices for my family I (they gotta eat what I cook, haha)…whole wheat pasta, whole grain breads, etc. And I often suggest active things for family time! Keeps us movin’….

  16. I do ALL of the grocery shopping and I try to limit the amount of junk food and drinks that come into our home. I also try to offer healthy choices for snack and in the lunches I pack for school.

  18. I try to keep my husband healthy by cooking ‘good’ food and limiting the unhealthy (but yummy) food. He’s doing well – lost weight and seems to feel better than ever.

    I AM THE HEART OF MY FAMILY. I MAKE ALL THE DECISIONS IN WHAT MY FAMILY EAT. I TAKE CARE OF MY HUBBY AND MAKE SURE HE TAKES HIS MEDS. HE DOESNT EVEN KNOW WHAT AND WHEN TO TAKE THEM IF NOT FOR ME. HIS DR ALWAYS ASKS ME FOR INFO.

  42. My hubby has been very into exercising a LOT lately. And even though we’re super busy and expecting Baby #3 🙂 I never make him feel guilty for going to workout.l He takes 10 mile runs every Sunday morning and often works out twice a day. I love that he is taking care of himself for his family and hope to get back into the routine myself after this baby is born ;)!

  43. I try to help my grandma as much as I can. She is not well herself and she is trying to take care of my grandpa who has cancer. I encourage her to ask for help (she is stubborn) and I do as much for her as I can. For Christmas I am freezing a bunch of meals for her so all she has to do is warm them up.

  45. My colleagues and I are wellness ambassadors for each other. We help each other at work when things get hectic and remind each other to maintain a healthy perspective and take one day at a time.

  48. I act as a Wellness Ambassador for my husband…if he had his way everything he eats would be deep fried in salt. lol I cook with flavorful ingredients so he doesn’t think he is missing out on his favorite foods. Great giveaway, thanks.

  49. I’m the “wellness ambassador” for my husband and daughters. I went on a big health kick a year ago and work really hard to make sure that we are all eating healthy and getting exercise as a family!
