Get Ready For Beach Season With Yoplait's Two Week Tune Up! GIVEAWAY

3/27/2011

Even though it's COLD here in Virginia, there is evidence all around that spring is here, and warm weather is fast approaching. We all know what warmer weather means... Wedding season is upon us, family getaways to the beach are getting nearer, as well as many other reasons that force us to bare a little more skin than we do in the winter. I am dreading it, personally. I just had my son, Xander, in January, 12 months after my daughter, Sophie, was born. So I have darn close to 2 years worth of recent pregnancy under my belt, as well as 2 C-sections, and it doesn't leave me feeling very body-confident! You mamas know what I mean. Pregnancy changes a woman's body, and it's not always for the better. I for one have the dreaded belly pooch! I actually acquired it after my 11 year old was born, also by C-section, and it seems that my pooch has taken up permanent residence. (BOO!) I have lost almost 50 lbs since my daughter's birth, and luckily I didn't gain anything with my son that wasn't lost immediately after his birth. But I would still like to shed 20 more pounds by my 30th birthday at the end of June.

I have never been happy with my body, and have been guilty of resorting to very extreme measures to lose weight in the past. That is something I am not proud of at all, and not the example I want to set for my daughter. Yes, the things I did worked, and they worked quickly, but I was doing damage to myself in the process. What good is being thin if you're not healthy? No one looks good when they're sickly, regardless of the number on the scale. There is a ton of pressure nowadays from the media and society in general for women to look a certain way, and I have made the resolution to myself and to my children not to fall too deeply into old habits all in the sake of losing weight.  If I lose weight, I am going to try my absolute hardest to do it right. My children deserve a healthy mama!

So as bathing suit season rapidly approaches, and my scale seems to be perpetually  STUCK at 147lbs, I have been looking for a good way to shed a few unwanted pounds by summer in a sensible way. So when I was offered the chance to participate in Yoplait Light's Two Week Tune Up plan, I jumped at the chance! I LOVE Yoplait yogurt, and by following their plan, it is quite possible to lose 5lbs in just 2 weeks! And the best part is that this is a program that integrates sound  nutritional choices with easy exercise, like walking. Now that it's finally warming up a little bit, I plan on taking the babies out for daily walks in my double-stroller anyway, so this plan will fit beautifully into my lifestyle. And Yoplait Light has so many delicious flavor choices, I know I won't get bored with the foods I am eating. I can literally have a different flavor of Yoplait Light every single day for over a month!

Here is a bit more information about the Two Week Tune Up Plan, provided by Yoplait:

This year, Yoplait Light is giving women a great new way to get ready for special occasions with the launch of the new Two Week Tune Up plan.

Whether it´s for a class reunion, a birthday, or your best friend´s wedding, Yoplait Light´s Two Week Tune Up could help you lose five pounds in two weeks by:

  • Replacing your breakfast and lunch with a Yoplait Light yogurt, a whole grain,
    and a fruit

  • Eating a diet rich in lean protein and non-fat dairy, including a sensible dinner, beverages, and snacks

  • Walking 30-40 minutes daily

To help women look and feel their best, Yoplait Light has provided tips and advice available on Yoplait.com, along with valuable online weight loss tools such as a meal planner, yummy  recipes and a daily food and exercise tracker. With 33 delicious flavors of Yoplait Light to choose from, you can switch up your diet menu as often as you like. Yoplait wants you to look and feel your best, and also has wonderful tools to help boost your confidence. (I know mine could use a little boost!)

So whether you're preparing for a wedding, a class reunion, or just want a beach-ready physique, Yoplait Light can help you reach your weight loss goals.

So why don't you head on over to Yoplait to check out the Two Week Tune Up for yourself. This is a wonderful and EASY plan that can fit into even the busiest of lifestyles effortlessly.

Want to try Yoplait Light? For a limited time, my readers can go here to download a valuable coupon to use on any 4-pack of Yoplait Light yogurt!

But that's not all! The generous folks at Yoplait through MyBlogSpark are also offering one of my lucky followers a great prize package to kick-start their own Two Week Tune Up! I received this package myself, and it has some great tools to help you eat right and start getting fit. Included are:
  • A VIP coupon to try Yoplait Light yogurt
  • A reflective wallet
  • An attractive and durable gym bag
  • A pedometer to keep you moving and motivated

Isn't this a neat little package of products? I especially like the pedometer. I find it to be a great motivator, since I can set daily goals for myself, and gradually increase the number of steps per day that  I aim for. And one of you will receive all of this, too! Here's how to enter:

You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something that I think I would never understand. It seems too complex and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post; I’ll try to get the hang of it!
