Scale says I gained 3 pounds this week...but it is not big deal to me!

One of the things I got blessed with post-op is, carbonation does not effect me at all.  But, that is a curse also.  I attribute almost all of the fantom 3 pounds (I say phantom because it'll be gone in a week) to soda!  I have noticed my soda consumption going up and up and up lately.  So I really need to cut that out, and I'll be fine. Good luck everyone!

What is this word DIET? Yeah I'm totally up for a challenge. Does having it in mixed drinks count?  Because I'll prolly have a few Crown Royal/Diet Coke's by the weekend.

I got burned out on Captain in college.  Now-a-days I stick almost exclusively to Crown Royal and, in a stretch, windsor.  Well, and vodka.  Gotta love vodka.

Vodka/Tonics, when made right, are perhaps the tastes drink ever.  EVER!

Either can be made into shots or martinis... I just kind of eyeball it to my tastes pineapple upside down is vanilla vodka, frangelico and pineapple juice (I mix with water and only a splash of pineapple to cut back on the sugar) you mix pour into glass then pour a little grenadine in the bottom (sadly grenadine is loaded with sugar but oh so tasty!) italian wedding cake is vanilla vodka, creme de cacao (the clear one) and pineapple juice mixed There is also chocolate cake, german chocolate cake, carrot cake and key lime pie... Ive had them all just never made myself but you can always google the recipies :-)

Ohhhh Brock...if you're going to do it you've gotta do it all the way....no mixed drinks with soda either!!!!  I'm also giving up drinking for a while...so won't be too hard for me...my favorite drink has been Strawberry Stoli and Tonic with lime..omg...sooo good...but no more!!!!  When I drink I will have to stick to non-carbonation...maybe just do shots?!?!  haha.  I have a feeling I'm going to kick your butt....lol...
