no better feeling in the world for me than to wake up each day and have a good cup of tea
i never knew just how much i would be grateful for just being able to drink a cup of tea first thing in the morning, instead of a drink of booze
today i take that for granted now but just posting here made me think how lucky i am i can have tea instead with no want or desire for anything else

I blend herbal teas that I buy in bulk.
Easy to do and very healthy and inexpensive
I serve them both hot and iced, depending on the blend.
Most anything mixes with mint--mint and nettle is a favorite.
There are also good bulk herbal teas on Amazon.
Davidson's and Zhena's are both good and use organic sources.

I'm into these myself but an earlier post mentioned the calories...guest we can't be too good!!
Had some non alcoholic red wine from Waitrose on the 31st which was very nice...alcohol wasn't an issue for me that night..thank God!

Diet Pepsi, Diet Coke or my personal favourite Irn Bru (think its just a Scottish thing)
But anything that gets your taste buds away from Alcohol based drinks gets my vote.
Have a great day everyone.

I've begun juicing. Strawberry, banana, kale smoothie - a few days you'll be AMAZED at your energy levels. I also go with apples, lemon (stimulates liver I understand), orange, celery, mushroom, baby cucumber. Use a sweetner if need be, but you can get some awesome nutrition. If you can, invest in a blender - I got a Ninja a few weeks before Christmas.
I totally replace a meal with 700 calories of smoothies/juice. Really makes a difference!!!

Um, no, lol :p
Actually, not drinking enough water is a real problem for me. It seems that when I don't drink alcohol, I don't drink water either. I try to add some orange juice or lemon to give it some flavor. I avoid carbonated drinks.
