I tried the Crystal Light on the Go’s in iced tea today with a squeeze of lime–it was good! It tasted almost exactly like brewed tea, with Sweet’n’Low. Didn’t get to exercise, but I was running around doing laundry and cleaning so I guess that helps a little. I so wish I could go to a gym or at least have a personal trainer to be on my ass and work me out, but alas, I haven’t the fundage .

I weighed myself on Noey’s scale and it said 115…so I’ve lost a pound . I want to get to at least 104, which is what I weighed after I had Eenan. I was too scrawny before (when I weighed 95), so 104 will be my goal. I’m noticing I don’t crave junk as much as I used to and when I want something, I either limit my portion or don’t have it at all. Yay!

Breakfast:
• Strawberry/banana Cheerios w/ 1 C. milk

Lunch:
• Small serving of lasagna (leftovers! Too lazy to cook!) – about 200 cals.?
• 16.9 oz. bottled water with Crystal Light on the go Iced Tea – 5 cals.
• 5 vanilla wafers – 130 cals.

Dinner:
• Ham & cheese sandwich on wheat bread (with mayo & brown mustard) – 240 cals.
• Water
• Strawberry sundae crunch popsicle – 170 cals.

Exercise:
• None, other than cleaning and laundry .

I bought a pack of bottled waters (I notice I drink more when they’re bottled instead of having to fill a pitcher from the huge jug) and some of those new Crystal Light On The Go packets (raspberry and iced tea) today. I had one during lunch and have to admit they aren’t too bad. You can definetly taste the aspertame (sugar substitute), but it doesn’t taste horrible either. I managed to chug down the whole bottle in less than 10 minutes. And there’s only 5 calories, no carbs, and it helps with your water intake! If you can drink a Diet Coke, you can definetly drink these.

• 1 buffalo wing dipped in ranch dressing (a whopping 80 cals.!)

Snack:
