Biggest Loser. General Mills. And some links just PACKED with thrills.

by

It’s been a while

since we met in rhyme.

Life’s been off track

(d*mn holidaytime!)

But we’re back now

With some fun new links

& a charity drive

(you’ll love it, methinks.)

BL & GM

are a TEAM you see

They’re joining together

To feed the hungry.

For every pound shed

G.M. will give

money to a foodbank

based on where you live!

I guess that means

You will have to say

IN-COG-NI-TO

how I roll these days.

Speaking of Miz

changing her mind:

I might just cave—

you SEEN this find?!

A tiny ring?

I’d SO that wear!

No band or wires

to make me swear!

For us? This weekend?

not sure what we’ll do.

I do need to shop

for a birthday or two.

(I used to be nice

And not give toys

or any sorta gift

which made LOUD noise.)

What about you?

Any work events?

Or all playtime?

(thatlastlinkmakesmetense)

My hope is to chill.

Reflect. Relax.

Cheer on the STEELERS

and snarf up some snacks.

That’s it. Im out.

Hope your weekends the best.

Filled with laughter & fun

DO try to rest!

Oooh. No, wait!

It’s the big REVEAL.

It’s time to show

The MizFit Seal!

For things that I love.

& stuff I adore.

In 2009

There’s so much in store.

  1. The MizFit Seal – it’s – awesome!
    For things way better than simply ho-hum

    If it’s approved by our Miz…
    We know…it’s got lots of great fizz

    So when you see this seal
    You’ll know it’s for real

    It’s gonna be great – might cause you to drool
    Super, fantastic, amazing…and cool…

  5. I hadn’t seen the Biggest Loser link.
    Just what I needed MORE reason to lose weight LOL.

    Have a great weekend Miz and that flight simulator thing stresses me out too.

    Especially after yesterday.

    Bea

  6. I love the Mizfit seal! Shirts please so I can be PERSONALLY Mizfit approved??

    This weekend I will be practicing my Lindyhop steps (first class last night!) and making the most of having NO LODGER for the whole weekend….blllliiisssss….

    TA x

  7. I think I saw that monitor at the mall this week!
    would you really use it?

    I love tokaiangel (that’s a mouthful) idea about the tees.

    I want to have one too!!!

  8. GO STEELERS!

    Once upon a football Sunday Baltimore looked like a Hyundai
    Trying hard to catch up to a Pittsburgh Porsche 994.
    Pittsburgh’s D is a steel curtain, guaranteed to bring the hurtin’,
    Shutting down the run for certain with the big and strong 3-4.
    When the Ravens play Steelers, will they even get a score?
    Quoth E.A.P, “Not Baltimore.”

    😀

  9. TOO FUNNY FLG!!

    and carrie? why am I so sucked in by that tiny ring. Id not buy for myself but were ren man to surprise me with a little box w/it nestled inside I might at LEAST wear it around town for a bit 🙂

    and the BL/General Mills thing? pretty cool…and I love how they donate to where YOU live and not a general (oooh pun not intended) food bank.

  13. How do all of you get up so early?
    This is my day one of being a morning exerciser and so far it’s not looking good.
    If only I had a bandanna with MizFit approved on it to wear LOL

    I am going to go procrastinate with the Biggest Loser link.
    Thanks Miz.

  14. why YES Bag Lady!
    As a tiny tattoo on her newborn bottom.

    Is that wrong?

    (Thanks for remembering!)

  15. It cracks me up how much you love jerky! I really like that 1001 things website – I’ll have to try and find more time to “dig in” later in the day…love the MizFit seal of approval too…off to prepare for work. Happy Friday!

  18. where do you buy that beef jerky?

    did you give it your seal? If you did I think it was a mistake since I have been looking to find it and can not.

    I live in Georgia.

  19. Very nice design. You should get that printed up as a REAL seal for closing up your correspondence. Or you could stick ’em on your kid’s forehead when she’s extra good,

  22. where do you buy that beef jerky?

    did you give it your seal? If you did I think it was a mistake since I have been looking to find it and can not.

    (and yes. no tees right now. only for products as, really, whod wanna walk around with my caricature emblazoned on their chest…although I have to admit Im intrigued by the bandanna possibility)

    I buy it online by the case. Id say it’s cheaper that way, which it is, but I cant find it anywhere else anymore.
    I used to get my fix at Walgreens.

    and NO. Id not give it the Miz Seal of Approval (sorry chipper. not that you asked).

    for reasons detailed (click) here.

    even though I love it.
    I know.
    Im a tough crowd…

  23. Love the seal! It looks great. And I want to buy out the Be Present store 😀

    Also I’m ogling that HRM ring. Reminds me of those ring watches that I’ve wanted ever since I was about 8 years old. I go nuts for things like that hehe.

    Speaking of nuts, those recipes look tasty. Yum. And that reminds me I need to go look for something for breakfast. I’ve run out of food again. Sighs.

  25. I love rhyming posts
    But my brain can’t think in rhyme
    I just do haiku.

    Thanks for all the links
    I want the HRM Ring!
    I love your seal, too!

    Happy weekend, Miz
    Enjoy every moment, K?
    Hope its not cold there!

  26. ooh, that seal is neat! i dunno about that hrm, still looks pretty big…

    umm, i have to shop for a tv this weekend 🙁 it’s been more time consuming than i expected as i want the most for my $$

  27. Ahem… I will be rooting for the EAGLES tyvm. Eastern PA represented!!!!!!!! (Although I will be rooting for the Steelers this week only, and only if the Eagles win the 3PM game. I really want a Keystone state superbowl!)

  28. Since my precious Falcons are out….Go Steelers!!! My next favorite team!! Have a great weekend bumbling band and stay warm!! I’m staying warm cuddling with my honey.

  29. I LOVE thinkgeek!! Please tell me you own one of their shirts! And I’m off to check out the GM charity thing. I find that a really intriguing corporate-community partnership. Thanks for letting me know!

  30. I thought that I might be able to give up the HRM obsession, but a RING?!?! The obsession must be worst than I though … I don’t even wear a wedding ring.

  33. That seal is awesome! Is that going to be your tattoo? 😀

    This weekend will be a feeble attempt to stay warm and watch me some football!

  34. I am too geeky or a child – i want one of those ThinkGeek t=shirts!

    This weekend, I’m resting a lot, though I will take the dogs for nice long walks as long as the weather’s nice. And Sunday I’ll hit the gym.

    But Monday – for MLK National Day of Service- I’m working with 3rd graders in a violent, economically depressed city to help them plant their section of the school FARM. They learn about the life cycle of plants, nutrition, and get to take the healthy foods home. I’ll be mulching and carrying loads of dirt. So rest I need.

  35. deb I know that’s not why you shared but you.are.awesome.

    the tornado & I are doing our own time of service on mlk monday as well.

  36. This weekend, we are throwing a party, so I will be eating lots of notsohealthy apps and drinking. It’s like the holidays all over again!
    😉

  37. I LOVE your new seal!!! You are the coolest! You’ll always get my ‘seal of approval’ 😉 Enjoy your weekend!

    oh, and you are loved by other mothers for not giving toys that make a loud noise! I do the same thing! Except for those meanie mommies – I make sure to get the loudest toy AND fingerpaints 😉

  39. I 2nd the motion about toys that don’t make noise. Dear boy is playing with the remote-controlled monster truck received for Xmas from his loving uncle…the dog does not enjoy monster truck as much as the boy…yap yap yap says the dog; ha ha ha says the boy. BOOMBOOMBOOM says mom’s head. Alas, truck battery needs recharging. Where to hide the remote, thinks the mom.

    I like your seal
    Makes you more real
    Helluva deal.
    More mizfit appeal
    A bandana I’d steal

    Have a nice day.

  40. I love the seal! How very cool.

    I keep “meaning” to sign up for that pound for pound challenge and forgetting…because I’m never at my ‘puter when I think of it, I’m always watching BL. So thanks for the nudge, I’m going to do it right now. If I’m going to lose – and I am, by golly – then I may as well contribute to this, right?

    Your “links” posts always keep me surfing all morning…I need to go write a post but I keep finding cool things to go look at. 🙂

    V.

  41. I love how the seal looks, too.
    What’s the plan for giving it away? Not everything you mention will get it?

    Did you see in that sleep article where it says to eat food low on the glycemic index to have good sleep?

    That is like the Zone right?

  42. Linda you are TALENTED and, methinks, we need to do a freestyle rap event at BlogHer in July.
    You going?

    I do have the first product which Im giving the Miz Seal to coming next week (and a freebie so you can agree or disagree should you be the winner).

    here’s to party throwing, embracing treat days and noisy toys as well.

  43. LOVE the MizFit seal.

    Also, the Heart Rate ring? That is just so cool. Did I tell you that on Christmas day my Dad opens up this package from my mother to find a POLAR?! What did I get from mom? NOT A POLAR.

    Always, with my family. Parents get what they’re SUPPOSED to get Mandapants for each other.

    End of sad story.

    😛

  46. Ha ha, I love the seal- oh so cute.

    Send my well wishes to Dana and the new baby!! Yay!

    This weekend will be (hopefully) fun-filled as I travel south for my half-marathon, then hang out Sunday in Vegas watching football (go Cardinals and Steelers!). Then Monday is drive home day. Hooray for a 4-day weekend (thanks to paid vacation time and the holiday).

  47. TB? would that be a Head Rate Monitor? what could we use that for? methinks that could be your million dollar idea!

    Im with you Tricia2. And, when I accidentally hired my personal trainer and then broke up with him via text, he didnt ‘get’ the wanting to gain MASS either.

    Amanda? why did your comment make me think of a twisted O’Henry story.

  49. Oh Miz.. you are so very talented. I saw the “pound for pound” challenge in another blog (http://www.healthbolt.net/) and I am going to sign up. I could use a 10 lb loss :).

    And BTW, I loved your stiff-legged deadlift clip and I got a glimpse of your tatoo love in another clip ( the Motorola headset one). Yes, I am catching up on stuff :).

    And I am afraid of your cute seal because I think I will go broke. I found myself wanting the “Dirty red” skirt as I was looking at your clips 🙂

    Have a great day!

  50. Ooh, the HR monitor ring seems decently priced, too. Now that’s the kind of jewelry I would wear…

    I always give noisy, messy gifts to kids because I figure their parents won’t and it’s my job for now to be the Crazy Fun “auntie.” Speaking of crazy fun aunts– congratulations! have a great weekend.

  51. Sounds like a great thing BL and GM is doing and great that you posted it. I’ve seen it on the previews for BL but wasn’t sure what it was about thanks for the link.

    As for noisey toys I love to give them *evil grin*. So I think you should look for the noisiest lol.

  53. Love all the links, (very cool HRM ring, “be present” wear and GM donations) but ESPECIALLY the Miz seal. (And … I just wish I were creative and could figure out a catchy rhyme — just like Miz.)

  55. How are you? That was a great post. Love be present. Haven’t tried the jerky.

    Gotta get some eggplant for that ratatouille!!

    Two hour window to clean house at the moment. Gotta run. Have a great weekend!

  56. And I am afraid of your cute seal because I think I will go broke. I found myself wanting the “Dirty red” skirt as I was looking at your clips

    That’s the main reason I launched the seal. I love love love my Dirty Red skirt (seal of approval for sure) where as other items (which I wont mention since I feel it would be unfair as they didnt ask me to review knowing all products wouldnt be sealed) Id not suggest, were you watching your pennies & not entering for a freebie, the Bumbling Band follow suit and buy.

    (and the tattoo you noticed: was it nape of neck?!)

    it’s all about what melissa said:

    The neat thing is the people care what you like, too.

    as, IMO, that’s not a responsibility to be taken lightly.

  63. very cool! I missed the rhyming! This weekend I will be cleaning my grandmother’s house, putting away her Christmas things, and going to my son’s basketball game……..too cute …1st and 2nd graders 🙂 We have a game every Sunday till the end of February 😉

  65. I want a seal. But, they eat fish, and, well. ick.
    I want a baby! But, well, they don’t sleep through the night, and I been dere done dat.
    I want a dirty red skirt! Oh, wait, I won one. evil laugh.
    Just dropping in to wish the band a wonderful weekend.

    : )

  67. Oh I just love that seal 🙂

    And that ring! That is awesome. I may have to go check that out.

    No plans this weekend, other than to say warm.

  69. I am so tired…. and was reminded that I am staying up too late with the sleep link..thank you for that…but I can’t pull myself away from your posts..where/ how do you find these links?? I LOVE EM!!and your new seal too. That rock band tshirt and the video with it was FUNNY. Thanks for the links..It was worth staying up too late..although I might have something different to say about that when I can’t wake up/oversleep in a few hours…Sweet dreams and Congrats on the new niece!! I missed that..but i saw it in the comments. 🙂
