Lemon in your Water

Hey. I miss this blog. I need to get back on the horse...right now I feel like "the horse" is dragging me while I cling with one hand to its tail; at least I'm still holding on, right?

Yesterday at work, I was talking to my supervisor and she told me one of her diet secrets- lemon juice in your water. Apparently its supposed to help burn fat. What are your thoughts? I'm assuming it does something similar to the benefits of eating grapefruit? Is it worth it for me to go buy a bottle of lemon juice?

Calling all my health gurus!

 

baby carrots are the new potato chips

[Hey, I know it's been awhile. Life has been crazy busy! I haven't made huge strides on the exercise front...I'm too tired after work. Does anybody have any advice to get my butt to the gym when I'm tired?]

Baby carrots have been my saving grace lately- being on the go with work. I have tried to have a little ziploc with me at all times. They are an easy snack, low calorie, and very filling; also, I can eat them in the car without making a mess or being distracted.

Anybody else have any great on the go snacks?
