How are you doing today my loves?  What about the 30 day Squat Challenge, still working on becoming a bootylicious babe with me? I know you are trying your best to complete this challenge. I’m trying my best too. Even though it’s just only one challenge  you have to do each day, sometimes it seems like a lot, it’s not as easy as you imagined and I’m telling you the truth right now, I almost quite many times too! Believe me you’re not alone and you can do this! Let’s finish it strong! Before we get into my post, I want to mention that this post contains affiliate links*.
Today I want to have a quick chat and tell you about the new product I’ve just discovered and recently feel in love with. I think it’s a good idea to share with you guys today because this month we’re doing the Squat Challenge and this product may help you feel even better!
I know you already knew about the benefits of performing squats but let me mention a fews here, toning and tightening your behind, abs, and, your legs are goals! Do you agree?Â
So the Clarins Tonic Body Treatment Oil is one of my new helpers for the tone and the tight with a plus of stretch marks appearance reducing benefit. I purchased mine from Nordstrom and been using it for a few days now.
Why am I in love with it after a few uses? Am I too easy to fall in love with something? OMG! Maybe! LOL!Â
The real answer is because I can see the result after a few uses. I feel the tightness at the area I applied the oil on. My stretch marks tend to get lighter too. I can’t wait to see the result after using for a longer period of time. The sense is amazing. It’s somehow help me relax and reminded me of a spa day. After I got it, used it and fell in love with it, I went to their website and read more about the benefits. I should have done this before I purchased but you know what, sometimes reading someone else’ reviews makes me feel bad for the company and sometimes for the person so trying it by myself is the best way to explore. I love doing it this way.Â
Here’s what I found on the site:
Clarins’ #1 selling body oil — with 100% pure plant extracts including Rosemary, Geranium and Mint — helps firm, tone and improve elasticity, reducing the appearance of stretch marks resulting from pregnancy. Hazelnut Oil softens, smooths and hydrates by locking in moisture. Aromatic natural botanicals promote an overall feeling of well-being. Preservative-free. You can see more information at clarinsusa.
I am planing to do a full review on this product, be sure to subscribe to my email list so you will get notified by me right in your inbox.

Keep those booty tone and tight! Happy squatting!
This half of the year has gone by quicker than I imagined. I remember last year during this time my husband and I just finished moving, came back from our Babymoon trip and got ready for our baby shower on the 4th of July. I also found out that I had Gestational Diabetes and I had to control all the carbs and sugars I consumed each meal. Because I rejected to prick my fingers all day long, I had to go see the doctor twice a week for an ultrasound and to monitor my baby’s heart rate. A few months later I had given birth to a healthy and beautiful baby girl!
You’ll never be able to go back in time (at least for now), so just make the best time out of your life. Make everyday count so you can think back and enjoy your memories without regrets.
Everyday is a new beginning, give yourself a chance to do something amazing! Forget about what makes you upset yesterday! It’s not worth to to waste your time complaining and feeling sorry for yourself. Live life at the fullest and at the happiest you can!
Feel so old talking about the past!! Haha! Oh, well!

Summer Instagram feeds are crazy!!! Make me wanna buy all things for summer!
But the cutest thing I’ve seen are the pool floats, OMG!, Can it be any cuter?
So I did some screen shopping and found tons of these cuties and I want to share with you guys where are the places you can get them from. Post details contain affiliate links*.
Like I mention before, I used to hate every kind of workout!! I remember back in school, many many years ago, ouch! Physical Education was one of the subjects I loved the least. The thing is that I don’t understand how can people love to make themselves tired, sweat like a pig, stink like a skunk, hurt yourself by running for many miles, except for those rosy cheeks you got after all the activities that makes you look cuter which was the only thing I like, other than that, forget about it! Whats wrong with you people???
All I love to do back then was just wish that the teacher was easy enough and let me rest for the whole time. I know, it sounds like I would never want to get involved with any thing physicals at all but guess what? Now I enjoy exercising and want to encourage you to feel the same.
That has changed when I became a mother and I want to be stronger and healthier for my baby and also still want to look sexy for my husband!
Not only that, some people are so annoying, they keep telling me that I am big! You know it doesn’t matter what size you are, if you know you’re beautiful that is the end of the story!
But in my culture people have to be very tiny to be consider “beautiful” and some of my friends and family kept saying that I am on the way to the ‘not that small’ side. They also say that they don’t think I can loose weight and be tiny! Well well well, what did you just say??  Â
Alright but what’s the easiest way that I used to motivate myself? Lists are below;
1. Prove Haters Wrong!!
Yep. Thank you for reading but you are wrong Haters!! Just kidding, I know you love me! Muahhh! This is the first motivation that worked excellent for me. It ‘s right that you shouldn’t care about how people think about you, I understand that but some people just don’t and won’t get it! So just make yourself proud and make the haters wow with the amazing results you get.Â
This first motivation tip can use with a lot of areas in your life not only for exercising but with life in general. I use it a lot throughout my life. Just to prove them wrong and make yourself very proud!Â
Dose that sound good to you?
But the key is that you have to believe that you can do it first then you’re half way there. Don’t let all the negativity ruin your will.
I believe in you my love! Let’s prove them wrong! Cheers to the winner!
2. Set goals
I know everybody says this and I don’t want to repeat it again. It’s all over the internet. I bet you’ve read some already. I did want to tell you what goals I had set though.
– I want to be strong and healthy for my baby.
– I want to look beautiful, hot and sexy for my husband.
– I want to be happy with myself.
– I want to inspire others by creating a Blog! That’s why I’m here and you are reading my blog post right now.
– I want to get myself ready for the next pregnancy.
– I want people to say that I’m beautiful! Not kidding! Haha!
All the above were my main goals before deciding to join TIUBikiniseries challenge this year in 2016. I still have a lot more goals to achieve!
3. Do it for pictures
This is one of my favorite things that help motivate me. I found myself doing it a lot just for the pictures , healthy meals, outfits and scenery which I share on my social medias. Sometimes it’s stressful to try to get the right picture but most of the time it is so much fun and I enjoy it.
You just have to do what you love.
If you like dressing up, just put on the workout cloth, smile, snap and share!
If you like a beautiful sunrise, wake yourself up early in the morning and go for a run or a walk, take pictures and enjoy the beautiful scenery and enjoy tons of Vitamin D from the rays.Â
If you are a food lover like me, make yourself a heathy meal, decorate it, don’t forget to take picture before you eat!! I’m serious, sometimes it looks so good and you just can’t control your hunger! I was there I know how that happened!Â
4. Inspire others
Do you know why teacher’s choose to be a teacher?Â
I know why… because it feels so good when you inspire people.
It feels even better when that person you have taught and inspired became very successful from what they’ve learned from you. I was a teacher and I still consider myself as a teacher.Â
If you haven’t inspired anyone yet, I encourage you to do it after finishing this post.
Start from someone close to you or just post some of your favorite quotes on your Facebook, Instagram or anywhere you want and see how people will react to that!
Tag me @mollerfulmolly on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter so you can inspired me too.
Â
5. Reward yourselfÂ
Not a bad idea to buy yourself something you’ve been wanting for a long time! Why not? You just did something special, so  just give yourself a gift.
It can be a small reward such as frozen yogurt, go out for a movie night or buy yourself a new lipstick, or it can be a bigger reward.Â
Buy yourself new bikinis or new cloths that will reward you after you complete your workout challenge! Make sure you buy it or at least have the picture and place it somewhere that you can see and to help remind yourself why you started.
Here are some of the bikinis I want to buy! I can’t decide which one, maybe you can help me by leaving your comment below!

Alright,  I hope my workout motivation tips can help you enjoy exercising and achieving your challenge! Let me know what your secret to motivating yourself is! Looking forward to hearing from you!
Summer is here and I do not recommend you to go visit the Grand Canyon this time of the year because it is so hot and it will make you unable to enjoy 100% of the beautiful scenery!! I’m serious!! Unless you are a fan and have a crush on HOT weather!
But don’t get me wrong, I love how beautiful and incredible this place is, that’s why it is one of the world’s seven natural wonders. I’m learning something new from blogging, here is a list of seven natural wonders of the world I just learn today! I’m so bad at this guys!Â
 1. Grand Canyon
2. Great Barrier Reef
3. Harbor of Rio de Janeiro
4. Mount Everest
5. Aurora
6. ParÃcutin volcano
7. Victoria Falls Â
My tips on what to wear if you decide to go explore this summer,  I recommend something light, flat, convenient to walk in and something that can protect your skin as well! Bringing your hat or umbrella is not a bad idea, sunglasses are a must! (Outfit details contain affiliate links*.)
Because I have to breastfeed my baby during the trip if you are in the same boat as me I recommend  you to wear a nursing tang top instead of a bra. I like it better because I can wear my shirt over and when I feed the baby I still have both shirt and a tang top to cover my body! It’s more convention and no nudity this way!
Don’t forget to put on extra sunscreen!!! My favorite sunscreen is the Coppertone “Water Babies Sunscreen Lotion’ only one bottle can use for the whole family!! Isn’t that nice? My husband and I love it a lot. Ice cold water will be your BFF for this trip!!
Hope my advice can help you prepare and enjoy your trip even more!
