I found this soda at Target, It's Archer Farms. Diet Black Cherry Cream. OMG it is sooo good! I know i know...its not water. But it sure is nice to drink! It only comes in a 4 pack so I save them for when I have a sweet tooth. They have 0 calories, no fat, 30mg sodium, no carbs, no sugar or protein. The ingredients are; carbonated water, Natural Flavors, Sodium benzoate, Citric Acid carmel color, sucralose, acesulfame potassium red 40. At the store it didnt look so bad. No caffine either!

Diet Rite makes a pretty decent soda too for when you get those soda cravings....it is actually no calories, no sodium, no caffeine....not really sure how it qualifies for being a soda but it does! lol! I will have to check that one out though because it sounds really good!

I will have to try that sometime. I dunno how the diet black cherry cream soda is soda either, lol I suppose its the carbonation? But, they make carbonated water...ew I hate it too! yucky! They don't call it soda water, lol!

I know, I made the mistake of buying carbonated water once and it was down right nasty!! lol!! I couldn't even get the kids to drink it and they like anything that they think is soda!! I ended up giving it to the pigs and got a laugh out of watching them make funky faces and smacking their chops! (I know, I know, I entertain wayyyyy to easily! I am always giving the animals funny stuff to eat and then laughing at them!)

I would try it with my cat...but she is far too sophisticated and won't touch anything like that! lol!

Hi everyone who reads my journal!

My boyfriend and I are in Phoenix and I gotta say...it's pretty dang hard to eat right while on vacation! We have some friends here and all we do it go out!!
So the drive here I packed a cooler with healthy foods, apples lunch meat things like that. I did pretty well! Expect for day 2 of driving. I was sick of Turkey and wanted a HOT meal. I made the mistake of getting McDonalds. Boy did that make me sick!

I had the worst stomachache ever. I don't think I even wanna attempt to touch it again! I suppose that is a good thing lol

I am nervous and curious what my weight is. I didnt get to weigh in on Thursday since I am without a scale.

I used to think weighing in more often was a bad habit, but I think for me it really helps me stay on track. I am actually pretty fear full of what the scale is going to say when I get back!

I tried to be good, and I know I could have made healthier choices when we went out to eat. I am just such a picky eater!

So here is my list of shame:
Applebees- Bacon Cheeseburger-ate half and a few onion rings.

Chili's- Buffalo Chicken Bites- The meal contained 4 sandwiches and fries and some onion rings string things lol. I ate 1 sandwich and half the fries. I left the onion things alone..kinda nasty looking

BAR NIGHT- This is why alcohol is bad! 4! yes FOUR captain and cokes. Then 2 of these rolled taco, its just meat and cheese rolled up. I cant say I am exactly mad at myself, just a little disappointed.

I am happy to be going home. Even though its like 90 here and sunny and im going back to cold rain/snow and like 16

.

I am an emotional eater and this trip has been very nerve racking for me!! The day before we left my car was leaking, so we had it checked and it turned out I had a leaking water pump! SO I was soo stressed to get this fixed before the next day! I called around to tons of auto shops and tried to get the lowest quote and who could do it that day...It took almost 5 hours to fix it and $565!!! Talk about there goes my shopping money! My bf lived in AZ for 15 years and I got to finally meet his best friends and people he is close too. That always makes me nervous! Then just the traveling and driving and worrying about the car and running out of gas before we can find a gas station lol. I need to chill!!!!!!!!!!!!! Being an emotional eater and this weekend was freaking a disaster!
We leave for home tomorrow it will take us 2 days to get there. Oye! Here we go again! lol
