Happy Thursday!

Boy, I must really be looking forward to Friday (who isn’t?) because this afternoon was dragging!

HA! side note: the Mister’s step dad, my father-in-law, has a joke he LOVES to tell when people are tired or missing their usual spring in their step.

“Ohhhh did you hear that Shannon caught that ancient Chinese disease?” he asks.

“No, what is it?”

“DRAGON ASS!”

ba dum bum….. get it? draggin’ ass? ok, ok…

Anyway, this afternoon, I was suffering from the disease! I needed a lil somethin somethin to get me through the afternoon! Well, one of my favorite afternoon pick-me-ups is a cool, refreshing FUZE. Have you guys tried FUZE? I love them because they are naturally low in calories (the Slenderize line), without any aspartame or artificial sweeteners. As someone who is a recovering diet Snapple addict, I love this about FUZE.

While there are many excellent Slenderize flavors to choose from, I never stray from pomegranate acai berry. I’ve tried them all and the pomegranate acai berry has a tart, refreshing tang to it that leaves me smackin’ my lips! Ever since i took my first sip, I haven’t gone back to any of the other flavors.

FUZE

I don’t know if I buy into the whole “revs up you metabolism” claim (with secret ingredient SuperCitrimax), but it sure tastes good — and that’s an added bonus if it’s true!

Have you tried FUZE? What is your favorite flavor? How do you pick yourself up if you are draggin’ in the afternoon?

Do you like prizes? Um, duh! Who doesn’t? Well, have you entered our Fashion Friday contest? Remember, email your photos to info@thedailybalance.com by midnight tonight!

   Fuze is awesome! It’s so hard to find the Slenderize line around here though. I’ve only seen it a few times ever. I’ve tried one flavour though, I can’t remember which one it was. Definitely never seen the pomegranate acai berry around here though. I’m going to have to search more!

   I’ve tried one that involved strawberries and maybe kiwi? Does that sound familiar? I remember that I liked it just fine, but I’m such a water hog that, aside from my morning coffee and evening tea, there isn’t room for much of anything else.

   Even so, pomegranate and acai… that is tempting!
