#GetMotivated through Music @BestBuyWOLF

This year my Resolution is to eat healthier, as in more vegetables, less meat,  less wheat, and be more active on my ORIF left leg. To Get Motivated this year, I have the JAWBONE up Fit Tracker, along with an LG Optimus f3 Android that I use for music, and to track my JAWBONE with. Flex for Yes!



When I have a bad day, it's music that makes life easier on me.  Also no matter where I am in life, or what is going on.  I still have my favorite songs that can push me. I honestly never want to think of a world without music.

"One good thing about Music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.  So hit me with Music.. yeah.. " ~Bob Marley

You can basically turn any smartphone into your own mobile station to track, and listen to music while you work out.

Organized by: Mom Powered Media

Grand Prize: $1,000 Visa Gift Card
Event dates: 3/20 – 4/10
Open to all bloggers with 2,500 facebook fans or more.

Join #Markerly Blogger Network, and Get Paid for your Influence.



This is a sponsored post for Markely. I tell friends, and family how financially, and intellectually stimulating blogging can be for a person. It's not far fetched to be able to blog, review products, and even make money doing so sometimes. What I enjoy most is how it's on MY TIME.  When I want to, and I get to apply, and accept what campaigns fit best with my lifestyle. A lot of time I get told "I don't have time." Don't you already check your email? Aren't you already looking at products online, and reading reviews for things, as is? Do you ever click SHARE after you buy a product? Don't you like to try new things? I know I do. I've also met a lot of great people while networking.


Imagine working with Levi's, Super Bowl, TruMoo, eMeals etc. from your home, on your time. Or, to get free products to review like wine from companies like Last Bottle Wines and Invino or cool earbuds from Jaybird. That is what Markerly does. They make it easy for you to apply for a campaigns online for sponsored content by emailing you when one is open. I will never understand how someone can play online but never has the time to check an email. Markerly is one of the best blogging network to find sponsored content opportunities and get paid to work with awesome brands.


Markerly's network is open to anybody to join that has over 10,000 page views a month or an average of 3 comments per post. So that is a great goal to go for when blogging. It's all about interaction, and networking. Also a little tip, blog about things you love, and make sure you Share photos, and rename photos what it is. And, Add keywords, and tags in labels, and Search Description. With friends, and family sharing, along with search engines. Anything is possible with blogging. Markerly is very focused on quality blog posts and bloggers that have engaged audiences.

Influential marketing really is the future. Companies, and consumers want to know real people reviews.

I mentioned earlier how I've met a lot of great people while blogging.  It's not just other bloggers, but also made friends on my pages, and companies like Markerly who know that sharing is what it's about. Social Media is like a domino effect.  If my 20,000 + followers just share with a few of their couple hundred friends/family.  Things are seen.  Now if blogger friends share with each other it is EPIC. So don't think OMG 10,000 page views is a lot.  Not really, it's not really that much a month.  Once you have content up, like reviews, products, and I like to do recipes too.  People will search, and find you.

Make it happen, Captain.  Sign up for Markerly Blogging Network here, It costs you nothing to sign up, and Markerly pays super fast. One of the fastest, and best blogging networks that I am proud to be a part of.  In two days they pay by Paypal after you've wrote your posts, and shared.

You can also check out what the Press is saying about Markerly.  Look at how well the content sharing platform is doing! This is why I like Markerly so much.  They understand to be successful, you have to share.  With technology now a days, and everyone being "Plugged in" social media really is the now!

Disclaimer: This sponsored post was extremely easy to write because I already use this Network, and it's fun for me to blog.  Love it, and love my followers.

Spoiler Alert! Tonights #BiggestLoser Episode @MyTrainerBob recipes to @SwitchToTurkey

Jennie-O Extra Lean Turkey Breast is my Favorite.
We are a huge fan of Jennie-O turkey! From the Turkey Hams (Great value for the price, makes a few meals.) to the Turkey Bacon that even my picky 3 year old Enjoys!! I'm not surprised to see them on the biggest loser at all. Bob is my favorite trainer! Tune in tonight to see what Bob has to say at 8/7c on NBC. That is 8-9PM Eastern for me.

Spoiler Alert! On tonights Biggest Loser episode, trainer Bob Harper surprises contestants with a healthy cooking lesson rather than a workout.



Worried about "all over the place" eating habits, Harper wants to instill consistently healthy eating habits - starting with breakfast. Telling contestants that healthy lean protein is a key ingredient in a good diet, Harper presents Jennie-O ground turkey and turkey bacon as the meat of choice for two egg frittata recipes.


After contestants select one frittata to eat, Harper lets them know that these breakfast treats are healthy enough for them to enjoy two!



Today¹s busy schedules make skipping breakfast entirely or grabbing higher-calorie fast foods more and more common.

A key component of a better breakfast is protein. The Institute of Health¹s Dietary Reference Intake recommendations allow anywhere from 10 percent to 35 percent of total calories for normal healthy adults.

Jennie-O has a long list of Biggest Loser-approved products, all great sources for healthy protein, including the ground turkey and turkey bacon featured in the January 13 episode. For a list of all Biggest Loser approved products, visit http://www.jennieo.com/products/collection/5-The-Biggest-LoserR-Approved

In addition to the breakfast recipes featured on tonight¹s ³Biggest Loser², Jennie-O¹s offers many more recipes for great-tasting, healthy breakfasts to start your day off right. http://www.jennieo.com/recipes/collection/211-Breakfast

Easy Stuffed Gluten Free Chicken Breast Recipe! Check it out! Plated with Raw baby leaf spinach, and spaghetti squash.


for 4 large boneless chicken breasts you will need,

4 large boneless chicken Breast
1 pack of Neufchâtel Lite Cream Cheese
1 pack of Uncured Apple Wood Bacon
Green Onions


Step 1, Start to cook your bacon.  
Step 2, Half cook all but a few slices of bacon 
(The all the way crispy pieces are for the Cream Cheese Stuffing.)
Step 3, Set aside the half cooked bacon 
(You use these to wrap the chicken with later, so do not cook them all the way.)

Preparing the Cream Cheese Stuffing,

Step 4, Dump the Cream Cheese into a bowl,
Step 5, Cut some Fresh Green Onions Up (I use cooking scissors for everything like this.)
Step 6, Take some all the way Bacon you cooked first, and cut into little pieces, and add to the bowl too
Step 7, Add some salt, pepper

Preheat Oven to 375,

Preparing the Chicken

Step 8, Add some salt, pepper, and a little bacon grease into a glass baking pan
(This is what the Chicken will be baking in.)
Step 9, Make sure your tooth picks are out and reachable without having to stop, and wash your hands.
Step 10, Take thawed Chicken Breast and flatten between Wax Paper starting from the center out with the flat side of a meat mallet. 
Step 11, Take the flatten chicken breast, and rub both sides into the salt, and pepper in the glass bowl, then place  it breast side down.

Stuffing the Chicken

Step 12, Split the Cream Cheese Stuffing up between all four breasts, right in the center of the flat breast.
Step 13, Hold the chicken breast together, and wrap a piece of bacon around it with a tooth pick. Add as much bacon as you want, and as many tooth picks as you want.  I like to over stuff, so I used a few at the end and folded the chicken in to make like an envelop.

Cooking the Chicken,

Step 14, Oven should've already been preheated to 375.  Bake at 375 for 30 Minutes.
Step 14, After 30 minutes, Broil it for 5 minutes.



I plated mine with Fresh, raw baby leaf spinach.  And a side of Spaghetti Squash.



It's so delicious, and easy to make.  I think next time I'm going to buy more uncured apple wood bacon (My 3 year old loves that stuff, so I had to keep cooking it for him, lol.) So next time I am going to get 2 things of Cream cheese, 2 things of bacon (I get the thick cut.) to make 8 Stuffed Breasts.
