Moving on to Celsius

It is getting back to busy season for my Dear Hubby.  That means 12 hours a day 6 to 7 days a week.  Recently he went through a 21 day run without a break.  Now that is a lot of hours.  He has been going through energy drinks to keep going too.  But I worry there too.  So I want him to be careful.  On top of it all he is great about drinking a gallon of water a day too with the Texas heat.  So I know he is hydrated!

Dear Hubby after a hard days work.

Last week at my request he tried out Celsius in replace of his sugar filled energy drinks.  And to also see if he was able to drop a lil more weight while doing so.  His tummy filled out a bit this last year and he has fussed that he is not too comfortable about it.  I don't mind.  But he does and he is working his tush off.  Why not see if I can give him a lil help.  

You see Celsius is different.  Now with Celsius, you can burn double the calories and be energized. Celsius is the world’s first and only negative calorie drink. Studies show that drinking a great tasting Celsius before exercise helps you burn up to 100 calories and more per serving, boosts metabolism, reduces body fat, increases endurance and provides lasting energy.

So he agreed.  He had been weighing in regular already without any weight loss.  Day one he worked as usual with a weigh in before work and after work too.  He did drink his usual 2 energy drinks too.  Then for days 2, 3 and 4 he did the same weigh in and had 3 of the Celsius drinks.  They come in seven delicious flavors, carbonated and non-carbonated, and also in powder stick packets that can be mixed with water. Celsius contains no sugar, no high fructose corn syrup, no aspartame, no artificial preservatives, flavors, or colors, and is low in sodium.  He said that he did not care for the Strawberry Kiwi too much.  But that the Sparkling Cola was close to Coke flavor than off brand sodas are.  

Also he said he could really feel the energy kick in that he was NOT getting from his previous energy drinks.  That even though he was sweating at work it seemed that it also increased.  He did make sure he had plenty of water to drink too!  At the end of the week he had lost 1.5 lbs.  Now I know that is not a lot.  But he had not lost any before with his heavy work load.  So that is a bit.  He he keeps it up he can easy drop 6 lbs in a month and that is a healthy weight loss.  

I want to thank Celsius for sending me 6 cans to try.  We can not find them locally so instead we are going to buy online.  We can get the powder mix for him to put in his water.  It is 19.95 + 7.95 shipping and handling.  But it does 30 drinks. That would be only .93 cents a drink compared to the $2.00+ for a regular energy drink.  So a good savings in the long run there.  And we do not have to worry about the cans that need to be recycled that way either.  Scoop some into his water jug and go!  Easy as pie.
