Today was rough. I did not get any real bad headaches but I did feel tired all day. No caffeine will do that to you I suppose.
It is hard to give up soda. I drank it a lot. My poor kidneys are probably in shock not having to work so hard. I have tried a few times in the past and was fairly successful once but then I got the bright idea that I could manage it. Just a soda or two a day would not hurt. Then I would fall right back into the old habits of having a soda with every meal. A soda while I would play games. A soda to help me get going in the morning. A soda to help me sleep at night. Just kidding about that last one...kinda.
I need to focus on the positive aspects of giving it up. In addition to the weight issue, I will save a lot of money. Many times when you eat out the drinks are outrageous. That makes me splurge all the more. Hey, if I am paying $2.50 for a Coke then I am getting another refill and when possible, a to go cup.
I did better on the meals as well. I would be surprised if I consumed more than 2500 calories for the day. We should know how things are going on the 25th and I can make any necessary adjustments at that time. If I do not blog anything tomorrow I will definitely have a post again on judgment day...Thursday, October 25th 2012. Until next time my friends.
