Also I have added some stuff for the kids too for those of you moms out there. The gifts does not have to be extravagant.

Today I am sharing a wonderful news to all and it is regarding my hair loss journey. I found a product that is really working for me and I wanna share to you all in vase you are looking for one. This post is not sponsored at all!
As you can see from the picture above which was taken around October of 2019. How I am slowly losing all the hair on top the Left side? Well look at this one now, this is taken a different angle but closer so you can all see it. It all started after having babies, I am not saying that all women having babies are losing hair but that was the effect on me. Since I already have 3 babies I have lost a lot and have tried so many different ways like taking other supplement, celery juice and all. But they all didn’t work for me. The photo above is when I posted about date night outfit here.
As you can see on this picture they are slowly growing back, those baby hairs? I started using this Collagen my friend recommended on me and ever since then I have been using it. Click the picture below for the link.
I have been using it since late last year and I noticed after a month and a half that every time I brush my hair or take shower. I do not shed that much anymore like it used to be a handful. Then a lot of people specially at work have been noticing that my hair is having volume. So now I subscribe and save from amazon since I get this like once a month well almost every 3 weeks now because my mom started using it too. And she is also seeing good results herself.
Also another benefits of collagen are strengthen hairs and nails and also improve skin elasticity. I hope you were able to find something here that is gonna useful to you or someone you know.
Thank you so much for stopping by and Have a wonderful weekend.

They are also perfect for athleisure wear Just like the 1st Photo I have shared over here.

I am into nails and stuff but honestly I rarely go to the salon and get it done, I always DIY my nails. I am obsessed doing it myself and also really not spending a lot of money every 2 weeks to get it done. So I have been finding different ways to glam my nails and found nail wraps and false nails.
Here I will be showing you guys all the other unconventional ways I have tried to glam up my nails and I am loving it. They are so easy to use, cheap and lovely.
Few months back my college friend introduced me to her business of nail wraps. You can check her Facebook group here to order. They are pretty much like nail stickers but very durable for long uses, mine usually last 2 weeks. Given I wash hands very much in a day because I work in healthcare.
SHOP THE POST:
I also have tried the dashing Diva from target they are $6.99 and looks like real gel manicure and is really worth the money. They really stick, there are a few that doesn’t but you have more nail wraps that you can always replace it with in case it comes off.
Second one I found was this Impress nails. They are ready made and really looks professional and easy to use. I just used it and most of the nails are still intact just by their own adhesive that came with it but there were a few that are already coming off so I will be using my glue to put them back. Still worth the purchase because it is easy to use and is under $10 bucks.
SHOP THE POST:
So if you are like me who doesn’t wanna spend much for their nails and wanna do it at the comfort of your own home that mostly last 2 weeks like the salon manicures then you need to try this.
I hope you find this post helpful and hit the share button. Thank you for stopping!

What makes working out fun is to have a workout buddy. So today I am sharing our mommy and me workout buddy system. I am so glad I have a daughter who loves to workout with me, she is even stronger because she used to do gymnastics.
We just started with just following some of the Zumba strong workouts on Youtube which are like 20-30 minutes each. Then we did HIIT workouts together. And this 2021 we are taking it another level and we are going to follow the Bodyboss Method for 12 straight weeks. We do cardio in between like Zumba dance and as a whole family workout in our home gym which I have shared here.
This is another good way to start if you can have a buddy that is willing to be sweaty with you. Not necessarily a daughter but somebody who is already with you at home specially now during this Pandemic/quarantine period. This is a good way and safest way to do it and to stay home and stay fit this 2021. Let us make our immune system strong.
If you do not have a home gym, Your living room is the best bet or just a small space in your room. There are a lot of workouts to choose from. Or just owning a spin cycle doesn’t take up much space either. This is a good one to invest with in your home if you are ready to be serious at it and not let get it dusty after few usage. Let’s start 2021 Fit and strong all year long! Sounds like a good slogan isn’t it?
Thank you so much for stopping by and hoping I was able to give another insight for all of you to get inspired.

New year, new you. So I am starting with this new habit of eating healthy but don’t get me wrong. I also do treat myself with a cheat day were I eat whatever I want. For this habit to be successful, I started with meal preparation solution.
I have done this before and lost track when I got pregnant with Andi so now I am doing it again. I am using the same recipe book I have used before. It has weekly food recipes and also the grocery list to make it easier for you. Plus the food are all good and kids love them too.
Check out all the items I have linked here. You will need a recipe book if you do not have already. Most importantly those containers for you meal for the whole week. Just make them all one day and put them in the containers and you can label them for what day are they for. It will make life easy and less stressful for you plus getting all the nutritious food all in one. Secondly you have to have those measuring cups and spoons to make sure you get the right amount for each serving.
In case you missed it before the recipe book I follow also has the workout book that goes with it per week as well and it is a 12 week workout that are usually 30 mins each or less a day. Perfect for working moms like me and for all the busy people that still wanna stay healthy and fit. Check out the post here and here.
I hope this helps you out if you are ready to work on you. make yourself proud of you! Thank you for stopping by and Happy hump day!

Happy 2021 everyone! I am so happy to be back doing my first blog post for this year. It has been a while since I posted here on the blog and one of the things I want to accomplish this year is to be consistent.
2020 was very unprecedented but we all learned a lot from it and I know it all made us stronger. I always think what doesn’t kill you make you stronger. New Year, New You is the way for me to start challenging myself again. I am here to continue to inspire women like me and we can be better. I have been getting a lot of compliments saying I am doing well and also question on how I manage to do it all like having 3 kids, full time PT job, a blog and a small business making custom shirts visit our shop here. As I always say, I have been blessed to have my mom here with us to help us with the kids and also my husband who is my partner with our business and my photographer for my blog. Even with all those things, I am still not were I really wanted to be.
I have made a lot of goals last year and I was able to get some done but due to inconsistency I wasn’t really able to achieve what I really wanted. I want my blog to turn around for good and for our small business to continue to pick up in the hopes of making it our full time family business. Our workout has been somewhat almost consistent this year as we were able to really able to utilize our home gym and do a lot of exercises as a family.
So this year, My mantra is “If it is to be, It’s up to me.” I am holding myself accountable, it can only happen if the change starts with me. I cannot get a different result doing same things. This week, since I took a week off from work. I started a diet (following a recipe book from the same workout plan I use and also note eating junk food) before the New Year and stick with it. I was able to accomplish my goal in 3 days. So If I continue to do this consistently and continue to be disciplined, I know I will be able to reach my goal. I started back working out 6 weeks after I gave birth to Andi and check out my fitness journey here.
So this is for us ladies who wants to challenge themselves this year a be a better version of ourselves. I know I really need to work on this as this year I will be 40. I am not getting any younger and really have to take care of myself and to be serious with me being my own boss.
Thank you for reading and stopping by to see what Simplychristianne is up this year. I assure you that I will continue to make good content for all of you for more affordable fashion but will continue to mix some high end ones. Let me know what topics you would like for me to talk about here. Thank you for sticking with me.
Wishing you all and Happy, Blessed and Healthy New Year!
