Water

Holy crap people.  I drank almost two gallons of water today all by myself.  I only had one 20 ounce sprite zero that Junior brought home from work for me.  I figured I could reward myself for all the water.  We even went to the store tonight and I didn't buy any soda.  I figure if it's not in the house I won't be tempted to drink it.

Let's see how much I can drink tomorrow.

Oh, and on the plus side, I think my kidney/UTI issue has resolved itself.

Yay.

Woot go you! That's why I don't buy cokes anymore... I can't help myself...

Jeannette ~ Today, I had Junior take me to the store to get a 32 ounce diet coke in ice, and I had a diet coke at the restaurant I went to for lunch. That said, I still drank a LOT of water today.

Dawn ~ Thanks. i think laying off the soda helped a lot, and I have decided that at home, I will drink only water. So far, so good. I hope I can keep it up.

Miss Donna ~ I know, but it's soooo good! lol!

For me, plain ol water got old quick so I get those Crystal Light packets to add to my water. LOVE the Banana, strawberry and orange!!! My fav!

jenn said...

Crystal ~ don't those have the same artificial sweeteners as diet soda? That's kind of what I want to steer away from. Walmart has an apple one that I absolutely love, and I was thinking about getting some this weekend. But then I was thinking, if it's the artificial sweeteners I should stay away from, than what's the point?

Dawn said...

You want to stay away from the carbonation. Those drink packets are really good. I second what Crystal says !! They are artificially sweetened. Walmart has there own brand, I think. Just a thought. How are you doing on water? I think you are doing great !! :)

Well, all I can tell u is that it helped me SO much to get away from the extremely SWEET ice tea I was drinking on a daily basis. Between 2-6 a day of the 32oz cups. LOTS OF SUGAR!!! Lol! They say splenda is the best for of sweetner to use right now but until they start making a powder for water I guess i'll stick with the CL. I put them in water bottles most times and I do every other one. The other ones are just straight water. I got away from the diet coke and sweet tea so now moms on my butt about this, lol!

Dawn ~ I have bought the Walmart ones int he past...they make an apple and a raspberry that I really like. I plan on getting some this weekend.

Crystal ~ I am convinced that moms will always find a reason to be on our butts! lol!
