Popsicles!

Okay, two posts in one day, holy bomb raid, I'm scandalous.



I'm going to eat popsicles!

"What? What did you say, Fogg? You're eating popsicles?? Do you know how fat you'll get?!"

Well... what if I told you that these popsicles are ZERO CALORIE popsicles?!

"What!! How did you ever manage that, Fogg?!?!"

Well, let me tell you. I went to the grocery store looking for that super low-cal dressing that I like and I found an even better one. It would be only 10 calories for supper (total!). So I picked that up. But then I kept walking and the area with the powder flavour packets caught my eye, so I stopped. While I was there, I found a small bottle of liquid flavour (to add to water) that had ZERO calories and no sugar at all. Normally they have about 10 calories per packet, but this was a liquid that you add to water and is zero calories! And it comes in so many different flavours too. I picked up a fruity flavour and was about to leave when I saw the popsicle trays with little plastic teddy bears decorating them! And so of course, I had to get those. But that caused me to leave the salad dressing behind because I didn't want to spend a lot of money. I'm just going to have to stick to the salad dressing I have until tomorrow. That'll be fine.

Basically, I mixed up the water and the liquid flavour (until I thought it was a good taste) and poured it into the popsicle tray. It makes four popsicles and holds about 200mL total, meaning that each popsicle is roughly 50mL. I'm waiting for them to freeze up and I'm so excited to try it!

My stomach hurts really bad and I'm really hungry and tired and heaven knows I'm dehydrated. I walked a bit over 5 km today, so that's good. That means I burned about 300 extra calories (... I was going very slowly...). My family is thinking about maybe seeing The Amazing Spiderman tonight at a nearby theatre, in which case I would have to cycle myself almost 20 km just to buy the tickets. I kind of want to go, but my mother will try to make me eat nasty popcorn and other greasy theatre food/candy. I'll have to refuse to that, but she'll probably want to get me something so I'll most likely just go for a diet (calorie-free) fizzy drink.

I suppose that's it.
