Where did I go?

Having kids, stress, and life changes make some of us gain weight. This is our blog to feeling better about ourselves! It's not an easy road we are heading down, so this is for support. We are beautiful women, just lost somewhere inside of our bodies that have gotten bigger, much to our dismay. We CAN do this!

Refreshing summer drinks

Here is are a few summer drink ideas!
  1.  Crystal Light with diet soda. It gives the soda a fun fruit taste but you can't tell that it's diet soda. Add a little frozen fruit to go along with the flavor of your Crystal Light and it's a HUGE hit!
  2. Add lemons or limes to your water. It freshens up your water without adding a lot of calories. One full lemon's juice is only 12 calories. (My son would love to just eat the lemon that I didn't use)
Also, trying using inexpensive reusable water bottles. They are eco friendly and depending on which one you buy, will make your beverage stay cold much longer.

  1. A couple more drink ideas:

    8 oz diet 7-up
    1/4 cup raspberry sorbet
    1/4 cup fresh raspberries
    2 ice cubes

    Blend it all up in a blender until smooth

    AND

    8 oz diet Canada Dry Gingerale
    1/2 cup quartered fresh strawberries
    3 ice cubes

    Blend it all up in a blender until smooth

    I got both of these recipes (plus 3 others if you're interested) from weight watchers like 4 years ago. They're both pretty refreshing, and low cal!
