Our New Project: Strong Sense of Place
My new project is taking all of my attention right now, and I'd love for you to join me for new adventures! It's called Strong...
Read MoreI was blown away by the awesome response to our giveaway of Adeline Mae Design’s bracelets last week. I’m so glad that you liked the bracelets because… we’ve got Well Fed bracelets to sell!
But it’s kind of a Good News/Bad News/Good News situation:
The Good News: We have Well Fed bracelets.
The Bad News: We only have 18 of them. They were custom made for us by Michelle at Adeline Mae Designs, and we weren’t sure how many to commission on our first run, so we went the conservative route.
The Good News: We are ordering more (right now!) so we’ll have them in time for the holidays, and we’ve come up with a way to sell these 18 that we think will make it fair.
UPDATE 10/31/12: I randomly selected 18 people, and they’ve been notified by email. Thank you SO MUCH for all the enthusiasm. We’ve order a LOT more bracelets, and we’ll have them to sell by early December. YAY!
Here’s how it’s going to work since we’ve only got 18 of these babies on hand right now:
1. Post to comments and let me know you want to buy a bracelet. Deadline to say you want one is Tuesday, October 30.
2. We’ll randomly select 18 people from all the comments, and I’ll send you the details on how you can make the purchase. Spoiler: Paypal will be involved.
3. We’ll place a larger order with Adeline Mae for next time and by the end of the year, everyone will be wearing Well Fed bracelets. YAY!
Don’t forget! You can buy beautiful bracelets with loving reminders to be strong and fearless on the Adeline Mae Designs site β or treat yourself to your own custom design. Be sure to let Michelle know I sent you!
My new project is taking all of my attention right now, and I'd love for you to join me for new adventures! It's called Strong...

Submitting a comment to the Wel Fed Bracelets.
The reason why I would love to snag one of these, whether it is the first round of 18, or later if you get a bigger order form is two fold and simple. I am a huge jewelry fan. So much so as a younger gal in high school my mom used to call my a gypsy because of the amount of jewelry I wore (multiple rings, bracelets, necklaces etc). While I have toned it down now that I am “professional” I still love jewelry. I find myself having to swipe them all off though before hitting the box before a WOD though..don’t want to get them messed up. π
THe second reason, is the most important for me. Just this week, I’ve started on the paleo route of eating clean and healthy. I’ve always been one who loved fast food, quick and processed stuff (because lets face it, that SEEMS easier)..but the more into Crossfit I have been getting (I am around 9 months in), the more I realize a good workout is always being negated by my bad choices (repeatedly) in food. So I have made a commitment to myself to start planning and eating clean in an attempt to lose weight, get stronger and faster and become healthier. The addition of this bracelet on my arm, would help remind me everyday of that commitment to myself.
Thanks. Love your blog…a constant reminder that eating healthy/thinking healthy can be light and funny as well as serious!
That is an awesome reason to want a bracelet. Way back in the day, when I used to go to Weight Watchers, our really terrific meeting leader recommended that we choose an “anchor” — something that would remind us of our commitment to good health. I always wear black rubber bracelets on my left wrist — they’ve been my anchor for years. I would love see Well Fed on your wrist as a reminder to treat yourself with love. YAY!
would LOVE one if there are any leftβ¦ this is by far the most helpful and delicious book i’ve ever used!
SO thankful that you picked me Melissa! I am excited to use the bracelet as my anchor for sure. And I used to be a WW kid too..still have the 25 lb circle after loosing that weight on my keychain as a reminder it can be done. But the bracelet will remind me of my new journey on clean eating. Thank you soooooooooo very much.
YAY! I’m glad you’re happy! Thanks so much for the support…
Definitely want one!! Need to represent in Canada!!
I would love a Well Fed bracelet! Almost all of my meals come from your cookbook-I love it!
Sign me up! I love this and very fitting too as our family lives out of the Well Fed cookbook!!!
I want one, too, please!
HECK YEAH I want one!! I love the well-fed bracelet! I have my fingers crossed!
I would love to purchase a WELL FED bracelet. I’m half way through my first Whole 30, what a reward and reminder this would be.
In any case, thank you for all you do to keep us informed!
Yay! I immediately went to her website hoping she was selling them after your original post. Would LOVE to purchase at least one π
Thanks Mel!
Yes, please. I would love to have one. π I need one on the hand that shovels food in my mouth as a reminder.
Thanks Melissa!
I would like one pretty please
Love, Love, Love it!
Wow… I would LOVE one of these fabulous bracelets! I’m fairly new to the Paleo lifestyle but already it has changed my life!!!
Ummmm . . . YES, I’d like to buy a bracelet!
Raising hand really high…pick me!
I’d like to buy one! They’re gorgeous.
Super duper cute but more importantly I think I would need this as an every day piece to keep me grounded and reminded how I feel so much better when I eat in a paleo/primal way. I struggle with binge eating and get really disgusted with myself after I fall off the wagon after weeks or days of eating clean and paleo. This would be a great way to visually see how I look and feel better when I am WELL FED………..
Yes, yes, yes!!!
I want one!
A great way to stay anchored- I’m in, now or later.
Would love to purchase one of these, to wear proud every day-how I eat!!
Oh please, pick me!
Meeeee!!!!
These are great, will trade for funky knitted headband or something ( made by me!)
I want one! I love it. I have already had a friend and family buy the cookbook after seeing mine and I would love wearing this bracelet and people asking me what it’s about.
So awesome. Would love one. Thank you!!!!
Would love one – now or later! Thank you!
A constant reminder that I am making good choices for now, for later,
and that everything I do helps me be well. I’m well fed, well rested,
well worked out, and well with my soul. Mecha
I had cinnamon stew for lunch today. I am definitely Well Fed! I would love to be one of the winners.
I wanna buy one too!!
I already bought the strong one after I saw yout post the other day! I love adeline maes designs and would love a well fed bracelet to go with the one already in the mail π
I would love one of these bracelets. It would be a fantastic reminder to treat myself well.
These are excellent bracelets! I would love one. π
I would love to have one!!
I would really love to purchase one! π Would compliment my CrossFit workouts nicely.
The bracelet would be great and I am thinking I will get a ‘well fed’ tattoo π
I want one!! They are awesome.
I would love one!
I’m a little late to this party but I definitely want in! Thanks Mel!
Danielle in Montreal
Me, please!
Yes, please. Would love one of these. π
I would love one! Well Fed is more than a cookbook title. It’s a way of life!
Want!! Love the design!
Yes!! Love the bracelet and your cookbook is considered the cooking bible in our house. Plus, doing the Whole Life Challenge, I want everyone to know I am “well fed”.
Please and thank you…
Definitely put me on the list! I’d like to get one for my girlfriend who makes me so proud with her good decisions about food. I hope I can get one in time to give it to her for a holiday gift.
I have been doing paleo off and on for the last two years. The same thing has always held true, when I am doing paleo I always feel WELL FED! Would love to sport this bracelet!
I would love a bracelet also. Paleo and your cookbook have made a huge difference in my life.
I am just starting Paleo but I am so excited and love the bracelet!
I would love the opportunity to purchase one of these beautiful bracelets! I would use it to enhance mindfulness when I’m making food decisions and remind myself of one of my core values- to nourish myself!
Love! Yes, please!
I want one! Hope I get selected!
yup, me too. my birthday is coming up and i cant think of a better present for myself!!
I whole30’d per your book and did and felt great. then sister’s wedding, people in town, two trade shows. running, wine, crap food and lots of it. swollen, bloated, puffy, yucky. I want the solid reminder that Whole9/30 works and is the way of life. Please pick me!! I’m 48 and it’s a struggle:)
I would like one please!
I want to support you however I can, and some extra promo for you n my wrist is a great way. I’m in.
Yes, please. I’ve been cooking from Well Fed almost exclusively since I got my copy in January! Love it.
I would like to buy a bracelet.
I definately want one! Would love to spread the word here in Sweden!
Love them, and would love one!! Let me know!! Sue-z-q
I want one! π
Oh, I really want one! Pick me! π
I went to the website when you first told us about the bracelets, and ended up buying a couple (no Well Fed, boo!) So if I could get the chance to buy a Well Fed one, I’d be overjoyed, and they would all look so cool together.
I would LOVE one! I am starting whole 30 soon and have already dog-ear’d the crap out of your book and made a shopping list! This bracelet would remind me that this is supposed to be awesome and fun!
Oh I want one bad. But what I love to see is that Im like the 78th comment here – Mel you rock!
I want one because as gym owner, people are always watching what I’m doing or asking what I’m doing. Any chance I can start a conversation about Paleo and the wellness that comes with it or CrossFit and the strength inside and out it brings, I will take it. I am a loyal follower of all things Melicious and would be honored to proclaim “Well Fed”.
Just got my bracelet in the mail today and I love it!!! And guess what?? Today is my first day of my Whole30! Everything is coming up Rebecca! : )
That is AWESOME! Hope you had a smooth Whole30 and feel great. Glad you like the bracelet!
