I’m very opposed to wasting calories on drinks–unless it’s alcohol (duh, and even then I try to go for the lowest-cal options). If you go to the drink fridges at Duane Reade it’s crazy how many new diet drinks are popping up. While I don’t believe these drinks will fuel weight loss, I think they are delicious and a great alternative to diet soda. Also, drinking them throughout the day also helps me to avoid boredom snacking.
My current favorite is “Skinny Water” which I’ve found at some Duane Reade’s and some Gristide’s. Here’s what I bought on the way to work today. Ok, I went a little overboard!
Flavors (from left to right):
- Wake-Up: Orange Cranberry Tangerine (great for a morning drink)
- Total-V: Lemonade Passion Fruit
- Fit: Blue Raspberry
- Hi-Energy: Acai Grape Blueberry
