How natural is your baby?

Posted on

What a great idea!

100% natural and compostable baby wipes

Developed out of mother’s guilt and the reddest butt you’ve ever seen, our wipes have been helping parents transform the world since 2009. Proudly Made in the USA, they are the first to be made from bio-based materials and ingredients listed on the approved personal care ingredients lists of EcoCert and the Natural Products Association.

Watch them disappear and become part of the earth (i.e. compost**; “wet” ones only please) or dispose of them in your neighborhood waste receptacle and feel good about the small change you’re making to decrease your baby’s toxic load and the environments’!

Elements Naturals® baby care products are a great alternative to the over-hyped and under-performing products found in today’s market. Their great products are made with Ingeo™, an ingenious nature-based material made from plants not oil.

Baby wipes are only the beginning. Plans to introduce new products are in the works! These are great!! You can fin so many uses for them not just a baby’s behind!  Remove makeup, personal cleansing even sticky hands!

I am excited about being able to use these on my new little one!! For now I keep them handy for everyday use! Momma made, momma approved!! If you are a momma got get some!! You can even buy them online at one of my favorites drugstore.com and at local retail stores. Visit the website to find a retailer near you!

Feed Your Brain – Lose your Belly

Posted on

Dr Larry McCleary MD’s book

This book can and will change the way you think about how you feed your body! If you are at that spot in your weight loss – you know that spot – you have tried everything to lose that last 5, 10 or even 20 pounds and NOTHING seems to be working. Then you need Dr McCleary’s book

In this book you will find….

  • * lists of good foods you should be eating to boost brain function, lower cholesterol and increase immunity
  • * detailed meal plans scientifically proven to boost weight loss
  • * recipes for satisfying dishes with a metabolism-boosting fat-to-fiber ratio
  • * case studies of real people who’ve lost weight on the Feed Your Brain, Lose Your Belly diet

Instead of forcing yourself to eat less, you’ll eat better and feel fuller–while providing your brain with the high-octane fuel it needs to thrive.

The information in this book is very helpful and can help even the hardest weight loss case! We as fitness moms LOVE this book and are excited about telling everyone about it! Be sure to go to Amazon and order your copy today! Check out Team TKD and all we do, that and this book will help you find the motivation you need to reach your goals!!

Thanks for reading our blog! Traci Davis

Why Tri?

Posted on

Ever want to do a triathlon?

Well team TKD – is setting forth with the Tri spirit! We are looking forward to our first Tri!! With great motivation coming from great sources, we will be crossing that finish line before long!! With our teams last Half Marathon each step brings us more rewards and nothing is better then running with friends and being noticed for our great gear! 

We love the comfort of the TRIX Gear! The shirts kept us warm pre race and were comfortable to move in. We are excited to be able to train in the shirts and they are even fun to wear on any sporty day or relaxing in as well!

Let us tell you more about TRIX ~

What do you get when you cross a triathlon obsessed husband with a graphic designer wife? Marriage met on middle ground and some pretty inspired tri lifestyle t-shirts. Frustrated by lack of fashion friendly triathlon inspired t-shirts during their seven plus years participating and spectating the team takes on the need and launches their online store October ’09.

Paul Duffy
owner/triathlete
United Kingdom

Paul Duffy has been participating in triathlons since 2002 but it wasn’t until his brain tumor in ‘05 that the sport became more meaningful to him.  Getting up to train day after day has come to symbolize good health and capability.  Paul’s wife agrees but would add that the sport really suits his hyperactive nature and is a great counter balance to a largely sedentary day job.

Celeste Duffy
owner/designer
USA

Celeste has yet to compete in a triathlon herself but does not feel this impedes her insight into the sport.  Having trailed three kids over eight years to a multitude of races not to mention accommodating her husband’s persistent and busy training schedule must certainly qualify her for some form of a finisher’s shirt.  While she waits she applies her graphic design background and her rather lengthy hours of spectating to Trix-Gear’s line of t-shirts.

Be sure to check out TRIX website and get your own gear and motivation! Team TKD is happy to be part of TRIX team!
