Its remarkable it's that little. It seems that anything you drink other than water tea or coffee has loads of sugar.
Look on the label and see if sugar is added or if it is the natural sugars from the juices.
Would that matter?
I'm thinking you are giving up processed sugars. It is almost impossible to avoid natural sugars.
I would agree with this, but a fruit energy drink probably has both. I avoid fruit juice in general as it has so many calories. And so much sugar.
Same. I once found this Watermelon juice at Wal-Mart that had around 10-50 calories that tasted really good, & of course the next time I went they didn't have it anymore.
I drink gallons of flavored seltzer water. That is my 'fruit juice". I love this new kind Polar. I don't like the Walmart brand they put aspartame or something in it. Too sweet.0 -

Sorry about that
hope today is better!
My mother sent me valentine's day chocolates. They're vegan and in black packaging and shaped like skeletons and anatomical hearts. She understands me
And I am going to be eating a lot of chocolate now.
Are those DARK chocolates! I'd love to see these if you have them still take a picture and post it. They are very original. I kinda like your mom.
beautiful, no?
Agreed
Nice! Where'd your mom find them?0 -
So I guess I need to get up, layer on the clothes, put the heated jacket on and go take care of some horses. Happy Sunday all. Quik I want a positive outcome from last night...!

If you messed up (and if it's all fructose from the juices, I wouldn't say that you did. Added sugar is different,) then just don't do it again.
I have had one of the things that I gave up today, but all Sundays are celebrations of the Resurrection. I don't usually take advantage of them, but I have always done that to make it easier on myself. It's easier to put it down and not touch it even on Sunday. I made a conscious decision to take advantage of grace today. It may be harder for me tomorrow, but that's okay. It's supposed to be a sacrifice and that is supposed to be hard.

That's great. Very original. And your roommates need to get a grip. Animals die. Most of the ones we recognize have skulls. It's nit like she left a real one.
It's just sort of viscerally shocking because it looks very real. We just sat inside the door and waited for passersby to scream. It was super funny.
ETA there was a card saying "those who slay together stay together" (new favorite pick up line).
Fitness confession: I just went to the gym for 30 minutes, and now I am eating ramen which is definitely more calories than whatever I burned. I may or may not be eating so that I have an excuse to read and not do work.
Now I need a photo of the skull.0 -

Happy Valentine's Day to you too!
I confess I thought tomorrow was valentine's day. I thought today was the 13th. Til like 3 pm when someone corrected me. Oh well.0 -
Happy Valentine's Day all!! Spent part of today out at the farm and had to rescue a calf from a mud pit he was stuck in. Got him out and he's ok. Weather was great too.0

I personally would have spread that out over a few more days, except that I was never hungry the day after I drank mire than one drink. (that was before I got married, btw.) I never had a traditional hangover, but I always lost my appetite.

Then I went to the grocery store for eggs and came out with kettle popcorn. I'm telling myself its not chips, but I don't know if it counts. But I have guilt.
Oberon, I looked up Ben Nevis, and that is insane. Have tons of fun.
I have the evening to myself and I'm debating cleaning the kitchen or cracking my new book. Tea and a book seems to be winning, but no guilt on that one. I am under orders to rest.
What's your new book?
(and no one should feel guilty for reading and drinking tea. That's just basic sanity maintenance.)
The newest JD Robb book, Brotherhood in Death.
I had tea, a bath with a really nice smelling bath salts, and my tea. It was wonderful.

It's a company called Vegan Treats. They're amazing.0 -
Well, that's a first. My office is closed until noon tomorrow. Granted it's snowed two inches in the last hour, but they've always said use your best judgement for administrative staff. (they have jeeps that they send to bring in clinical staff and a plan for bunking them in if necessary, but I don't think they've ever used it.)0

And I always need greasy food. Like Mcdonalds. And sugar. A coke definitely helps.0 -
Haven't been in here in ages. Just thought I'd share with you that I'm on my 3rd pair of pyjamas for the evening. There was a booby milk incident, then their was a baby poo incident. Here's hoping these jammies last til morning. I have pretty low expectations nowadays.0
