Thumbs up Apple juice again!!

As regular apple juice is just a whole lot of good-tasting concentrated sugar in liquid form, I gave it up sometime before I had surgery, but I've always loved it. The other day at Wally's World I was looking at the different flavors of water additives they have. In addition to the regular Crystal Light sticks, Wal-Mart has their own line of flavors, one of them being Apple. I bought some and tried it, and by golly, it tasted just like apple juice (or at least how I remember it tasting, which is good enough for me!) It doesn't taste like flavored water as so many of them do. I'm gonna be getting me some more of these!!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

I LOVE the Hawaiian Punch ones! I've never really been a big "red" fan, but I LOVE the grape and lemon-berry one. The blue one isn't bad either. And for a treat at times, I like the South Beach water additives. There's strawberry-banana & tropical flavor. They are on the "sweet" side of tastes but they are good! But my only problem with them is that I feel sooo full after drinking it. I'm not sure if it's the protein in them or what.
