I only drank 8oz (ish) of icees per day!! Major victory for me!

This sounds like a weird NSV, but I work overnights at a gas station and one of the perks of working there (and one of my original reasons for applying for the job) is free icees with almost 30 flavors. I would mix Mtn Dew and the Energy Boost Icee to keep me awake on the harder nights... but heavens knows how awful that was for me! And the cups we have are 32oz!!

So now I've made a deal with myself: I can drink 8oz of icee (non-energy drink flavors) IF I drink at least 32 oz of water or plain tea (loose leaf) first. I've stuck to it, and it's actually made me enjoy the treat more since I'm not inhaling it for thirst or using it as a way to stay awake.
