Zip Fizz really does FIZZZ!

A friend bought a drink mix called Zip Fizz and gave me a few packets to flavor my disgusting vanilla protein drinks. I was sitting at my desk at work and put water, protein powder, and Zip Fizz in my shaker cup, gave it a dozen shakes, then started to unscrew the top. My pink drink fizzed out all over my hand and the carpet. Gee, I wonder if that's why they call it Zip FIZZ? The drink that was left tasted OK, but I still prefer Special K powder drink mix as an "additive" for flavor.

 

Thanks to the people who read yesterday's blog and made comments. I was really excited that anyone read my blog. I thought this was kind of a "Dear Diary" thing that was keeping me from going crazy.

 

I don't know how I would have gotten through this without this support board. My friends are supportive but we all work and barely have time to talk somedays. My daughter is 16 and can barely cope with being 16, and my son is 12 and I don't want to worry him. My co-workers says things like "People have heart attacks from not eating enough, you know...like Karen Carpenter!" The fact that she was anorexic over a long period of time...oh well, this is educational for everyone. I'm getting good at saying, "I'm sorry, but you're misinformed."

 

I heard from the psychic surgeon's office again and they gave me my surgery time: 2:30 pm. June 27. I asked if they had anything earlier and they said they would move me up if anyone cancels. I assume I can't eat and, as a diabetic, I'll be running on fumes by noon. They may be able to skip the anesthesia!

 

I'm just happy I lost 2 more lbs! Woo hoo! I have to go update my ticker now.:biggrin:

Congratulations! I wondered about that Zipp Fizz stuff. I've seen it at Costco. I was afraid that it would be like soda though, with the carbonation, so I would be afraid to try it.

Good for you for standing your ground. People get it in their heads sometimes that they know what's better for us. As if we're incapable of taking care of ourselves. Be strong!

Anyway, just wanted to say hey and good luck!
