OK, so I just looked at the calendar and realized that this warm weather isn’t just a fluke.
It is spring!
Which means late spring/early summer swimming is just around the corner.
Ouch.
There might be about 10 pounds I would prefer to shed before THAT happens. Â But drastic change has never been my strong suit.
So, one of the things I have been doing is making small changes that don’t make me grumpy, but all add up to something bigger when combined.
I have been much more consistent about walking every evening and at each meal I am consciously eating less.
The other thing that is pretty easy to do is to substitute lower calorie items for higher ones.
One of those things is super simple AND currently available in the Dallas area {we got it first!}. Â It is Â
Pure Via ®Turbinado Raw Cane Sugar and Stevia Blend.  My cup of coffee and cute little green spoon of Â
Pure Via ®Turbinado Raw Cane Sugar and Stevia Blend  is pictured above.  I love how it has the texture, look and CRUNCH of raw cane sugar.
It doesn’t even feel like a substitution, but it has just 5 calories per serving!
Stevia is all natural and made with 97 percent pure Rebaudioside A (Reb A), a pure extract of the naturally sweet stevia plant.
If you are looking for a zero calorie solution, check out Â
Pure Via ®.
Both products are available in this area. Â In fact, Seattle’s Best Coffee is opening several new coffee shops in the Dallas area and the sugar “caddies” will include Pure Via
® products.
You can find out more on the  Pure Via website, by liking  their FB page  or following them as  @PureVia  on Twitter.
I want to thank Whole Earth Sweetener is sponsoring my BlissDom trip and this post. Â All opinions expressed are my own.
