It’s Not Too Late For A New Year and New You

I tend not to make New Year’s Resolutions. I’m more of a spur of the moment kind of resolution maker. But pressed to make one  — and determined not to be as run of the mill as needing to work out more (although that could very likely be my random January 7 resolution…) I have decided I need to eat more healthy foods. I need to be cooking more and getting in touch with my inner Emeril (not Paula Dean). So I will be hitting the supermarket more often and buying actual fruits and vegetables. My other life-long resolution is to drink less soda and more juice beverages and water.
 
My first foray into drinking more juice beverages and also healthier foods was with Tropicana Trop50 Juice Beverage in Raspberry Lemonade. Tropicana® Trop50® delivers the goodness of fruit juice with 50 percent less sugar and calories, and no artificial sweeteners. If that isn’t a perfect way to jump-start my NYR and probably yours, I don’t know what is.
 

I really liked the Raspberry Lemonade. It’s in the 80s where I live, so the drink was especially refreshing in the warm weather! I also really liked the Orange flavor. I went into sipping that flavor with an extra critical mind because I had read reviews that said that the Orange flavor tasted slightly watered down. Frankly, I find many juice beverages to be too sweet and I often cut them with 50% water — so this worked perfectly for me. I really had no complaints about the Orange (or Raspberry Lemonade) flavor.
 
Starting the year off by drinking Trop50 is something that will make my NYR a little easier to realize. There is a lot more work to be done — stocking my kitchen with spices and the proper cutlery, etc., making my roommate encourage me to make vegetables, and actually choosing healthy foods over chips and popcorn — but I am on my way. Plus, this whole experience of actually making a NYR has inspired me to come up with more – stop procrastinating, always get 8+ hours of sleep… I could go on and on.
 
But I’d really like YOU to go on and on about YOUR New Year’s Resolutions.
