Turning lemons into lemonade! Great recipe

Yesterday I was so bad! I think I ate everything in site! I just had one of those days. I am not going to be down on myself about it! Although I did gain a pound! Damn it!

 

So today I woke up with a positive mindset, I am off work today and headed to my mom's. She's got a pool so I am going to do a ton of laps and stay on my diet! I did discover that I love "splenda blend" it is splenda and sugar together. It only has 10 calories! It is great in coffee. I also have a great recipe to share if anyone wants a good drink! It's just lemonade but it taste like it has 1000 calories but it has 0! It's just fresh squeezed lemons, splenda, ice and water. Combine until it is to your particular taste. I like I whole lemon, 2 tbs splenda, ice and 16oz water.

 

Stay strong everyone! :smile:

Thanks for the recipe. I buy splenda all the time but now I am going to be making lemonade.

Some days I stuggle to stay on track but with ideas like this, it will definitely help.

I wish you much success on your journey.

I too love the blend. I bake with it a lot. I will def give your recipe a shot. Its awesome stuff. Since you like splenda in your coffee, did you know it comes in vanilla flavor???

Iam SO happy to see your positive attitude. You go girl. I will not name anyone but I read a post here today and it got under my skin. If you expect all bad things then thats just what you get in life period, not just with the band. Keep your positive attitude. Its not the end of world and your making up for it!!!!
