I usually never get to watch Dr. Oz becuase I'm at school when he's on. And even when I am home, I usually don't watch him anyway due to other things happening that are more important. I honestly don't remember when I've sat down to watch a complete show without interruption or without multi-tasking...anywoo, Dr. Oz I swear was talking to me over Christmas break. As I was scrubbing my kitchen floor, I heard the previews saying this show was for women over 40 and the changes they should make. That was me...well, not yet. But I'm being proactive here. So with Lysol in one hand and a pen in the other, I began taking notes.

~Women who turn 40 should take extra Vitamin D...check. Got my chewable vit. D and take them every morning.

~Women who turn 40 should take a mulit-vitamin...check. Do that.

~Women who turn 40 should have 25g of fiber a day...check. Bought some raisin bran and craisins. Might not be 25g but it all helps!

~Women who turn 40 should drink Oolong tea....never heard of it. It's supposed to be chock full of health benefits. I don't like tea but I figure if I can choke down raisin bran everyday, I can give this tea a try.

So I went to the local health food market and asked for Oolong tea. The lady told me everyone has been in asking for this stuff! We all must have been watching the same episode. Found the last box, brought it home, brewed up a cup and hoped for the best. The first taste was horrible. The box said to add honey for sweetness so I did that. It was a little better but oh my, it certainly was testing my taste buds. It literally took hours but I get down most of the mug. Seriously? I am supposed to drink this stuff everyday? Seth told me I'll get used to it. I'm not as confident. This turning 40 gig is no fun at all. I would rather drink my daily Coke and be happy.

Not sure if the Oolong tea will hold out but at least I gave it a shot. I wonder how much honey i can add before I end up killing the benefits?! Hmmmmm....may need to do some research on that one.

Happy Sunday! :)
