Today makes 30 days since I have had ANY soda (or pop for my northern peeps). This is a huge accomplishment for me. This is the longest I've ever gone without drinking it for as long as I can remember.

Giving it up has been surprisingly easy. I haven't really wanted one too badly. On the rare days where I did want one, I had juice or Gatorade instead. I know those still have a lot of sugar in them but not as bad as drinking a bunch of Coke. I drink over 100 ounces of water a day.

A few of my friends, have tried desperately to get me to drink at least one but I didn't. Ha ha guys, nice try. It was a definite test of my willpower.

Friday was a big test for me as I was having a bad day. A really bad day. I wasn't feeling good on top of everything that went wrong. All I wanted was a Coke. When I was standing in line at Walmart , I was staring at the coolers with Cokes in them. I was so tempted to get one but I didn't.

I wish I had weighed myself before giving them up so I could tell you how much I've lost. But I didn't. I can tell you that I feel a million times better. I sleep better. I'm not up all hours of the night.
