Move It & Lose It - Week 1

First - congratulations to the Sista of the Week, Angela (@NineMoreMonths)!!

TODAY, I'm beginning my second Earth Footwear Move It & Lost It Challenge. Good thing, since I GAINED TWO POUNDS since last week. Up, down, up, down ... ugghh.

As one of the applicants that applied to Mamavation campaign #6, I am eligible to compete to be the mom who loses the highest percentage of body weight during the 7 week campaign and will win $500 and a pair of Earth Footwear. And the second place winner will also win a pair of Earth Footwear, but no cash.

Join us on Twitter October 18 for the Mamavation Launch Party from 8-10pm EDT. They will announce the two Mamavation Mom winners and give away some crazy swag! It's the big Twitter party launching the 6th campaign from 5pm to 7pm PDT (Mountain Daylight Savings Time: 6pm to 8pm, Central Daylight Savings Time: 7pm to 9pm, OR Eastern Daylight Savings Time: 8pm to 10pm). And on October 18th during the party, the next two Mamavation Moms will be announced and they will enter into @bookieboo‘s virtual healthy living boot camp for seven weeks. We will also have giveaway winners organized by @Resourcefulmom. Use hashtag #mamavation for the party. (You have to be present to win!)

Earth Footwear is an official sponsor of the Mamavation campaign, along with SUBWAY, The EA SPORTS Active & Chefs Requested. Earth Footwear is perfect for moms who want to save time. According to a study, people that wear Earth Footwear burn 4x more fat than those who don't wear Earth Footwear. The secret is in the technology. Earth Footwear uses Kalso ® Negative Heel Technology®, a unique inclined sole that positions the toes 3.7º higher than the heels. The slight angle shifts weight subtly back over the heels, and can help strengthen and tone the body while also burning calories. So if you can't get to the gym, put on a pair of Earth Footwear and go about your normal routine. The shoes will do the work for you. OR if you want better results with your workout, put on a pair of Earth Footwear to really kick the fat burning into high gear! I REALLY WANT TO WIN A PAIR OF THESE SHOES!!!!

So, here are my official beginning photos:
