She lost 86 pounds in a year — thanks to a Pilates method you haven't heard of until now
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. Welcome to mid-July. The weather is warmer, days are longer, and shorts are getting shorter. Glow-up season is here, but it's too hot to jog outside, the gyms are packed, workout classes are outrageously expensive, and your motivation might be hitting an all-time low. Enter Simple's science-backed method. The Simple app is offering three free months of its 28-day challenge, a program that includes Wall Pilates workouts, alongside personalized nutrition coaching, and progress tracking to help you build strength, lose weight, and keep it off long-term. Wall Pilates is a wonderful, low-impact method for strengthening your core, improving flexibility, and even losing weight. But, the best part about it? No equipment is required. You can get your sweat from anywhere — your backyard, hotel room, or even the beach, if you're feeling adventurous. Getting started is simple. New users complete a brief questionnaire outlining their basic information, including health history, activity levels, goals, and current body composition. From there, Simple will make you a customized plan for getting started and provide predictions for when you'll hit milestones. It's proven with real people's results, too. Laci Gilbert dropped 86 pounds in just one year, and she's not the only one to see that type of transformation. Over 18 million users had shed a total of over 13 million pounds with Simple. Simple 'The Simple app has helped me not only lose the weight, but also change the way I live,' shared Gilbert. 'This is a lifestyle change, it is not a diet. It is something sustainable. It is something you can do for the rest of your life. Gilbert loves the range of features on the Simple app, including the photo-tracking tool, where users can input their current weight alongside progress photos to track how their bodies change over time. 'The scale is sometimes a liar,' she explained. 'But the photos are always going to tell you the truth, and you can track that directly in the app.' Gilbert also appreciates the supportive community she found through Simple's Facebook group, and says that Simple's AI assistant, Avo, was another great source of encouragement during her weight-loss journey. 'If you are struggling with ideas to prepare a meal that day, all you have to do is type in Avo, 'I need help with a meal', and suggestions pop up,' she explained. 'If you need encouragement, it's there. Anything you need, you can ask Avo.' This article was written by Miska Salemann, New York Post Commerce Writer/Reporter. As a health-forward member of Gen Z, Miska seeks out experts to weigh in on the benefits, safety and designs of both trending and tried-and-true fitness equipment, workout clothing, dietary supplements and more.

Babies go bonkers for the Doona Stroller Trike — Save $70 at Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. The theft took place at approximately 7:15 AM on a quiet Tuesday morning in McCarren Park. The nearly-stolen item? A Stroller Trike. The thief? My two-year-old daughter, who launched herself at it as soon as she watched its tiny, unsuspecting owner waddle away towards the swing set. She was fiercely determined to take the sleek three-wheeler for a joy ride, and it took all my strength to peel her away from it. I couldn't blame her. Like many toddlers on the brink of outgrowing their stroller, she's made it very clear: she wants her own set of wheels. So, it's no surprise that the Doona Liki S3 Convertible Stroller Trike instantly became her obsession. Now, it's mine too. This clever convertible stroller trike is easily one of the most impressive designs I've come across, and as a toddler mom who shops for a living, I've tested more than my share of baby gear. Now that it's marked down $70 in Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (running through August 3), there's no excuse not to grab one. Compact, travel-friendly, and ridiculously cute, the Liki S3 is ideal for little ones eager to pedal, explore, and feel like big kids. It might just be my favorite deal of the entire Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. Nordstrom The Liki S3 Convertible Stroller Trike is a one-of-a-kind system with a compact, folding design that transforms from a stroller to a tricycle in seconds. It's also compact enough to toss into the trunk of the car or stow away in an overhead bin. Whether you're navigating tight café corners or zipping through the park, this is functional design wrapped in a seriously good-looking package. For city parents who value style and sanity, this one's got your back (and your toddler's handlebars). This article was written by Miska Salemann, New York Post Commerce Journalist. As a Gen Z first-time mother of one, Miska tests baby, maternity and postpartum products ranging from stylish new kids clothes to long-trusted diaper brands with her daughter. She evaluates baby- and mom-approved products for practicality and quality, and consults medical and parenting experts to weigh in on safe ingredients, usage and more. Before arriving at the Post, she covered the lifestyle and consumer verticals for the U.S. Sun.

These little fly fans are your summer swat team and 32% off for Prime Day
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. There's something about a perfectly set summer table. A chilled bottle of Sancerre, fresh sliced peaches, maybe a burrata if I'm feeling cheeky. And then a fly lands directly on the watermelon mint salad and, suddenly, it's personal. That was my life before I discovered these weird little spinning blade gadgets that now live permanently on every outdoor table I touch. They're the AMIAEDU Fly Fans, they look like mini helicopter prototypes, and they are shockingly effective. The soft, flexible blades twirl gently (and silently), creating just enough air disturbance to make flies think twice about ruining your al fresco moment. They don't kill anything, they just repel — like Axe body spray. Right now, these tiny heroes are 32% off for Prime Day, and I'm telling you: they are the unsung MVPs of summer hosting. I bring them everywhere — barbecues, picnics, patio dinners — and every time someone asks 'Wait…do those actually work?' I just gesture wordlessly to the pristine charcuterie board. The proof is in the prosciutto. Advertisement Amazon Each AMIAEDU Fly Fan is battery-powered (or USB rechargeable, depending on the model) and designed with holographic blades that catch the light in a way that bugs naturally avoid. They're safe to touch, fit discreetly on any table, and create a 360° fly-free zone around your food and drinks. Light, portable, and blissfully quiet, they're the lazy girl's answer to bug control — no zapping, no swatting, just chill vibes and uninterrupted appetizers.

30% off a Vitamix for Prime Day? Say less.
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. I never thought I'd say this about a blender (even though everyone who knows me probably thought I would), but the Vitamix changed my entire relationship to food when I was introduced to it in 2015, before I became a chef and while I was a raw vegan (it wasn't a phase, Mom). It started innocently, as most great love stories do: a meet cute in my parents' kitchen after one fateful Prime Day. Cut to me 48 hours later, draped in a robe, sipping a cashew cream smoothie so smooth it made my Vitamix-less past feel medieval. If you've ever tried to blend something thick in a budget blender and ended up with a sad, chunky paste, then you already understand the spiritual satisfaction of the Vitamix 5200. And, before I get into why it's worth it, yes, it's an investment. But with 30% off for Prime Day, the math gets a lot sexier. I tell everyone: you're not buying a blender. You're buying into power, longevity, culinary prowess. I've used it to make almond milk, green goddess dressing, mushroom soup, tahini, salsa, whipped matcha, and one extremely regrettable frozen gin concoction (user error; was too good). Advertisement The point is, I use it — and not in a guilt-dusted appliance graveyard way. This one earns its counter space. Amazon The Vitamix 5200 Professional-Grade Blender is a full-sized beast designed for serious performance. With a powerful 2 HP motor and aircraft-grade stainless steel blades, it blends everything from frozen fruit to hot soups (yes, it can heat via friction alone). Its variable speed control lets you fine-tune texture mid-blend, while the tall 64-ounce container is ideal for batching meals or drinks. It self-cleans in 30 seconds with just soap and water — no disassembly needed. This is the model found in many commercial kitchens, and it's built to last a decade or more. In short: it's the blender you graduate to. This article was written by Kendall Cornish, New York Post Commerce Editor & Reporter.
