Take A Hint Before I Go Mint

As I struggle through the dreaded task of dropping pounds – 10 to be exact – in time for bikini season, it’s nice to see that we’re not all the epitome of a greek goddess. 

hintLooks like Khloe Kardashian got busted in a pair of nude spanx (SEE HERE) when a huge gust of wind swept by.

SMH … Embarrassing.  The worst thing about being spotted in spanx is that it reveals the fact that it was all an illusion. There you were prancing around like you had done the hard work (or at least had good genes) when all the while it was an extreme elastic band doing all the work.

Well unfortunately for me, spanx will not be helpful on the beach.  So my goal this week is to wean myself off the sugary drinks.  This is tough – especially since I really don’t like water.  Yesterday, I noticed I had gone practically the whole work day without so much as a drop of liquid when faced with drinking a glass of water.  When I came in this morning that same cup of water was on my desk starring me in the face.  Ridiculous!!!

So I bought this Hint Water last night thinking I could bribe myself into doing the right thing.   Hint is regular water accented with natural flavor. No sugar, no artificial sweeteners.

Child NO!

I thought adding fruit tastes to blah water could only make it better.  It just made it worse. 

Dear CEO, perhaps a dab of artificial sweetener will do it some justice. 

So far I’ve tried Blackberry and Watermelon.  When chilled (damn near iced), it did taste a little better than the Watermelon but still … the taste was bad news bears. Before I completely give up, I’m going to hunt down the Cucumber flavor since its one of my favorite foods.  If I don’t see a glimpse of hope there, I’m going to have to ditch the Hint Water.  Maybe I’ll try Mint Water next.
