Strange Products to Help You With Your New Year’s Resolutions

13Jan10

You started off the new year with resolutions for better health, but you
have now found that your daily run interferes with your coffee run, your
healthy eating has created some healthy odors, and you miss your smoking
buddies.  Fear not! Solutions exist to keep you on track with your goals for
the year without compromising your regular routine.

1)  Storing your money on the go with Pocksie.  Rectangle-boob is not an
option, and the barista looks at you with disgust when you hand over sweaty
bills you have just pulled out of your bra, shoe, or ???  Keep on good terms
with your local coffee shop/bakery/mini mart by using Pocksie: temporary
sticky pockets.  Just peel off and stick to the inside of your shirt or
shorts and create an instant pocket just big enough to hold ID, credit card,
some notes, and a key. 6 pockets are $9.95 at www.pocksie.com

2) Neutralizing the odor caused by your healthy eating with Subtle Butt.  Is
your newfound vegetarianism creating a newfound noxious odor around your
derriere?  While your body adjusts to its new stream of raw veggies, stick a
Subtle Butt disposable gas neutralizer in your underwear.  Each 3.25” square
absorbs and neutralizes foul odors so you can keep you your healthy eating
and keep your friends, too.  “And they really work,” says Annie Beiner,
Sales Director for the company.  “I’m not just an employee, but a satisfied
customer!”  5 saving graces are $11.95 at  www.subtlebutt.com

3) Quitting (or starting) smoking with Blu electric cigarettes.
Smoking can be very social and a good networking tool.  Quitting means
losing relationships you have built over a series of seven-minute sessions.
And starting smoking just to gain those relationships is hazardous to your
health and pocketbook. Thanks to Blu electric cigarettes, you can have that
social connection, breaks from the daily grind, and no unhealthy effects.
They are cheaper, tobacco-free, and come in tasty flavors with no nicotine
or small levels of it, if you are interested in weaning off the real stuff.
Jesse Chou of Laguna Beach loves the sensation of having a cigarette in his
fingers.  “I enjoy my time slipping out to the patio for a smoke, but there
is a real wow factor among friends and co-workers when I pull this out at
the table after a meal and have a few puffs without offending anyone.” A
rechargeable starter pack is $59.95 at www.blucigs.com

So why try and change your routine when these few little gizmos will make
staying healthy so much easier?  Cheers to a great 2010!
