Thirsty Thursday

So...

I think I lost those 2.6 pounds in all the liquid I peed out yesterday! Sorry if its TMI but I could NOT STOP GOING yesterday. I drank lots of water but I swear I was in the bathroom every hour on the hour! My grandmother butters and salts everything (which I NEVER do) so I can tell I dumped a HUGE amount of fluid off! Woof!

In honor of getting fluid in... (although I can't say if this is good fluid or bad...) here's a lovely drink! Sorry, it's not No Soda September compliant...but it is delicious!!!


Marvelous Mojito
Servings: 1 Delicious Cocktail

Ingredients

•1 oz. (2 tablespoons) lime juice
•8 mint leaves
•1 heaping tablespoon splenda
•1 jigger (1½ oz.) white rum

Nutritional Breakdown

Soooo it's not the healthiest OR the lowest cal recipe...but sometimes, we just need a little something to kick off the weekend right? Compare it to a restaurant 3.5fl oz restaurant mojito and it's not so bad!!

Enjoy!!!!!
