Sonic smoothie!

Dieting...I think that is definitely a four letter word (minus the "ing").

In the midst of my "I sure would like to live a little longer" quest in life I have began to use that four letter word. I have been looking at "FAT FREE" and low cal things. One I found was the fat free strawberry smoothie at Sonic. It really is pretty good. I have found a "treat" in that silly smoothie. Well, perhaps I should say I did find a treat in it....until Paden (Sarah's health friendly and exercise guru of a boyfriend) investigated Sonic and found out how many CALORIES the good ole smoothie has. GOOD GRIEF comes to mind...SIX HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FIVE calories. Isn't that crazy?

I am not sure who to be mad at? The cow? The strawberries? The farmer? The truck driver? Sonic? The waitress? hummm...maybe Paden for bursting my excessively high calorie smoothie bubble? Or myself?

Nothing in life is free. My dad said that all my life. I tell my kids that pretty often. It's true. And now that truth has even invaded smoothies...no such thing at fat free...maybe fatless....but still a lot more something that isn't Free at all. I even paid for the freeness!!

So I am back to counting calories...if it doesn't state the calorie content? That does not mean it's free:) It means beware...run...at very least power walk away. lol:)

PS...just for the fun...look(the point being TRY to look) at this nutritional chart for Sonic. If you are young enough to actually be able to read it ....well, you can likely eat anything you wish. If your eyes cannot read it? Run, jog....lol..you got it:)
