So Close....

I am laying here in bed and really wanting a diet coke bad...I am trying really hard and I knownif it were up to me, I simply would just go get one!! I am not sure what to do to stop wanting a stupid cola product...I have no answer to this problem...no solution...just not sure what to say or do....very upsetting...really really is....

Start of Day 4

So here I am...working on my forth day free from diet coke and feeling great!!! I am actually working outside in the frided temperature and just finised a gatoraide. I think that my biggest problem comes during meal times. I continue to want a diet coke when I go to eat. I would be able to quickly resolve this problem if I had more milk to drink. During snack time and thru the remain parts of the day, I have mo problem with a cold bottle of water or a heart burning gatoraide. I don't think, but not completely certain yet, think the heartburn has slowed some after stopping the coke. I am not certain of that, but do believe it is slowing somewhat!! But here we go--almost to eat and going to have to settle for some ice water or gatoraide!! Please continue to wish me luck!!!

3 Full Days

I can't believe it for myself!!!! I have officially made it 72 hours and counting without a single diet coke!!! Yes, I can't count the number of times I have wanted one...and can't truly count the number of times I have went to the fridge to get one not even thinking. But I am quick to take note to the mere absence of the once beloved soda of choice occupying the fridge! Instead, multiple bottles of water and gatoraide now lay cold where my once drink of choice be!!! Ha Ha Ha....it truly is funny in one sense to think about how much one can think about something so stupid soboften. It is no longer a desire but a force of habbit in my life--and that habbit is the only thing needing to be broken!! I was having only a small problem with feeling aquward moments ago--but that feeling has seemed to have already passed. I drank a bottle of water in fear of an esqulating sugar level--but no fear, for it was on the money! I will continue to drink more and more water to help keep this problen under control and to help continuing to flush my poor body system! It's been quite an interesting ride the past few days and looking forward to looking back upon these posts laughing at my need and desire to have a diet coke!!! We almost have I one habbit broken....but must remember to take one day at a time! Maybe I better go to bed early again---helps aide the cause in "kickin da habbit"

Another Day...Diet Who???

I am officially working on my third day in a row and am still diet coke free!! I have actually had two bottles of water and working on my second gatoraide!! I have read that today and tomorrow are the sad when I "would really really want" a diet coke. Well, unfortunately for the coca-cola company, they are not getting another dime from me! All carbonated beverages are bad for us to consume. I haves researched the various coca-cola products and pepsi products--some containing aspertame, some not--but in the end, none are good for our health!!!! I am down to water, milk, and gatoraide! I think those will quench my thirst!!!! Please continue to wish me luck in ridding my body of the big dc and aspertame!!!

Officially 2 Days Free

I have officially made it two days free from drinking diet coke. I know that may not sound like much to some, but to someone that drank the fizzy death drink for breakfeast, lunch, and dinner...ohhh and all the times in between...two days does mean something. The only problem that I am having is the "wosey" feeling that I have been suffering from for days. This is the exact feeling I was having prior to stopping true diet coke, but it seems after eating, approximately 30 to 60 minutes following, I seem to start having problems. I checked the sugars again, and thank goodness, they remain normal. I will continue my quest in over coming the need and desire to have another coke--two days free and a lifetime to go!!! Please wish me the best!!!

The Beginning of Day 2

So here I am...another day and I am kinda in the mood for a diet coke. But...still hanging strong and will continue to do so!!! I have a little bit of a headache and haven't taken anything for it. I already drank one gatoraide and going to the truck to get another one!!!! Please continue to wish me luck!!!!
