yuck

ugh omg unsweetened white grapefruit juice is the nastiest and most vile substance I have ever drank. No wonder they tell you to drink it with meals so you'll feel filled up, it's so rotten it makes you ill so you can't eat anymore! blech

It's so very awful. I'm drinking it as part of this diet plan I'm starting prior to starting my "healthier lifestyle" and it involves eating or drinking a grapefruit with each meal. I figured I couldn't actually eat one because I don't like grapefruit but surely could down a glass of it but I've realized it's harder than I thought. It's just so nasty! I mean I really dislike it a lot and hate it even more when I go to drink another glass. It has become my nemesis now.

Ah, ok. But if you're just drinking it for the vitamin C, can't u just have orange, tomato or blackcurrant juice instead? And - with each meal? O.o I don't think you need THAT much grapefruit per day. A half one in the morning should do.

It is very good for you though :x If I didn't have to drown it in sugar, I'd probably have half a one a day myself ;p But I figure all that sugar wouldn't be a great idea lol!

*Yay* you for your healthier lifestyle though. I'd like to do that myself. I was meant to go back to the gym last week and start walking every day again. The weather has put a kybosh on the latter and the former requires my brother to actually stick to a schedule ;.; *sigh*

I dunno it's something about certain things in grapefruits that are especially good for you to help burn bad fat or something. All I know is I'm starting to dislike even the word grapefruit :P

A healthier lifestyle change is long overdue since I've picked up a few bad habits over the last few years. I blame a lot of it on my work since I just sit for 8 hours and we always have snacks around (no donut jokes! though we do have donut day on Fridays ;P) and shift work wrecks havoc on eating proper meals and at the right time. So I'm trying to make time for the right things and hopefully I'll stick with it :P

And the weather certainly can hamper it, I'm so ready for spring now lol

Heee. OK. No donut jokes from me.

Donuts are lovely though. If I were a cop, I'd probably indulge more than I do. Actually, now that I think about it, I can't remember the last time I had a donut :( pft.

I can imagine shift work totally screws with eating. I hope your healthier lifestyle works out for you :)

Back to your nemesis - I don't know much about grapefruit other than it's good for vitamin C and fibre, I think. Perhaps just orange juice and a fiber rich cereal would be just as good :D

My thoughts exactly :P I'm on the lookout for it that's for sure! :D

Ohhhh icon with changing hair=teh pretty

Maybe tomato juice would be better than OJ now that I think about it. I think it's meant to have antioxidants or w/e too :) (tastes better too imho ;p)

blech I don't care for tomato juice either :P Though it would be better than grapefruit :P

And nice Anubis icon :D

:O :O :O *loves tomato juice* Wow. I think it's gorgeous! Pity you don't like it :/ Oh well, back to oj then lol!

TY! :D I ripped it off borrowed it from someone at a place called 'little details' on lj. Some ppl have cool icons there :D and, I have a thang for ancient Egypt - which made sprint to see the original Stargate movie , of course ;p I've just always thought Anubis was cool :P

I'm not a huge tomato-y fan, I like ketchup and pizza sauce and tomatoes on salads but not in large quantities. I know it's good for me and I should like it better :P

oh yes ancient Egypt is very interesting as well as the Greeks and Romans. I miss some of the Lit classes I've taken in school before :P

I'm a habitual Coke drinker but I'm trying to cut out drinking soda completely. It's quite difficult actually :P

Really :P I haven't had a soda in two days, it's nearly a record! hehe
