- A little about yourself...
- My husband Randy and I write a blog called the SurfShelf Blog at www.surfshelf.com/blog and we have a product, the SurfShelf, that I think other Moms will love.
My story is one that you might relate to – I am a stay at home mom and I just started getting back in shape to lose the weight I gained during my pregnancy. Randy was also trying to start a more regular exercise program and was trying to find a way to entertain himself while he worked out on our treadmill. In doing so he came up with the idea for the SurfShelf (www.surfshelf.com).
The SurfShelf is actually a simple idea that allows you to use your laptop while you get in shape (watch online TV shows, email, games… you can also watch DVDs!). It's a portable polycarbonate tray that attaches your laptop to any exercise machine (treadmill, stationary bike, elliptical trainer, etc.). It comes with a free membership to In-Gym.com, an online entertainment portal built specifically for the SurfShelf user. In-Gym.com requires no typing or mouse. You just use your arrow keys to move around the site to launch your favorite video sites.
Recently one of our customers emailed us to tell us how much she loves her SurfShelf. She told us that she just leaves her laptop on her treadmill so it makes her get on the treadmill when she wants to go online. I thought that was brilliant! Using her idea I now spend about 1 hour online, walking each day (doing emails, reading blogs, watching TV shows, shopping and even playing Texas hold'em on Facebook) while Skye is napping.
It's now been a little over a month and I have already lost 10 pounds! Woohoo! I am so excited about how it has kick started my metabolism and given me tons of energy (that I thought was lost forever) and I really want to share this message with everyone, especially other Moms.
I would like to invite you to take a look at SurfShelf (www.surfshelf.com) and In-Gym.com (www.in-gym.com)
If you would like to review it on your blog or email us back and let us know what you thought, we would appreciate it. You are welcome to keep the SurfShelf for yourself or give it away to your community. Also if you are interested in doing a giveaway or a contest that would be great also, we would love to be involved.
