Influenster Vox Box!

Okay.. so it has taken me forever to make a post about this. I have only been filling out surveys for Influenster for maybe a few weeks and they sent me a Vox Box. If you don't know what one is.. it is a box they send you full of AWESOME stuff to test. In my box I received:

These little lovelies are supposed to help with appetite control. I can honestly say that so far they seem to be working pretty well. I have been trying to shed some baby weight from having my daughter recently. So far I have lost 9 pounds and I intend to keep it up!

Ok.. so I didn't even know this stuff existed.. It is AWESOME! I personally havent gotten a cut or burn I have had to use it on.. but I have a two year old boy. I have used it on a couple scrapes he has gotten playing around and it seems to work amazing. I also used it on my brother who plays football, and he said it was awesome. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this stuff. I will be purchasing more when it runs out.

As a mother of two.. sometimes I get headaches. And this stuff also seemed to work really well. And the taste wasn't bad.. which is also a plus. This is also another thing that I didn't even know existed. I will be purchasing more of this as well.

I had to find a picture of the boxes because I ate my bar before I could take a picture of it. And I have ALWAYS been a fan of Zone Perfect bars. My family has purchased these for years and years. The new one that they sent me was amazing. They are filling and great for you... perfect for a meal replacement if you are in a hurry.. which as a mom.. I usually am.

I also was unable to get a photo of this amazing little cookie because I ate it too fast. I got the cranberry almond thins.. and holy moly! THEY ARE SO GOOD! I also gave my son a bite of one and he was very very disappointed when he realized that mommy had eaten the rest of them. I will be purchasing more of these as well.

I hope to get more boxes from them in the future. It really was amazing to be able to try out these wonderful products.
