Drinks……………..& Apples.
One of the girls who commented on my last post asked if I had tried Crystal Light.
The answer is YES- and i detest them. As I do diet soda in any way shape or form.
I adore water!! Nice and cold with a slice of lime in it is my favorite. I like lemon too. I also drink sweet tea(southern style) but I have pretty much cut out drinking this stuff and colas, unless it’s a celebration, like a Birthday party of some such deal. I LOVE the stuff, but the calories just aren’t WORTH it!!
The only time I usually give in and drink a soda is when I’m taking my headache meds…for migraines….for some reason the carbonation in the sodas seem to speed up the effectiveness of the medications. And when I have a headache- NOTHING(including the calories) is more important than getting rid of the headache as soon as POSSIBLE!
Today was an easy day…I came home, excersized for about a half hour, then went to bed and slept til an hour before time to go to work. Then I cooked Penne pasta with some grilled chicken, ate, and dressed and headed off to work. I brought a serving of the pasta with me for supper and had two 20 oz bottles of water with dinner and another while I’m doing my walk-abouts.
I weighed, and haven’t lost anything more, but then I haven’t gained either. So even tho Aunty Flo hasn’t decided to leave yet- I’m still good with a 9 pound loss. The next three weeks will be easy to take of the extra two pounds that it put on. And then I’ll try and take off another five to go with it before her next visit.
One of the girls made a comment about not wanting her life to be ruled by her diet….I dont worry bout that- I only worry about having to live my life around My “Favorite Aunt”s Visits, and trying to take off as much weight as possible during the three weeks in between times.
Oh- btw- does eating fruit make any of you guys hungrier than you were before you ate it? It does me- especially APPLES!!! What the heck is THAT about?????
I love coffee, but I rarely drink it now, as well.

ok I’ll try again.
I was saying…I love water too. That’s all I drink besides milk for calcium.
Mind if I ask (sounds daft), what’s the connection btn Auntie Flo and weightloss coz mine is visiting too.
i know what you mean about the fruit. bananas and apples make me even hungrier than before i ate them. also an fyi about the sodas and headaches. all migraine medications contain caffeine so that is probably what is helping out your headache. so if you are worried about the calories in the soda, just take an excedrin or something.
Sunny Bunny…That means we have a good week ahead in terms of pound loss if we keep doing what we are doing on top of losing the extra fluid when Auntie leaves.
