Jan. 10th, 2005 11:43 amToday is the first day of implementing my New Year's Resolution. I didn't talk about it before because I can never follow through on anything, but I see now that I need the accountability. Here it is.
Yesterday, I drank my last diet Coke. Or Coke of any kind actually. Perhaps, after the initial withdrawal has passed, I can have one as an occasional treat, but I was drinking three of four cans a day and that has to stop. Now. No more Coke. Caffeine is only one very small reason that I want to get rid of Coke (have you ever read the ingredients in that stuff! Yikes!!), but I do want to severely limit caffeine too. I don't drink coffee, but I do like tea, so for the first few days I am going to allow myself two cups of tea, iced most likely, as it is too warm here for anything else, to help me over the caffeine hump. Tea is actually very good for me, green tea especially, so I may continue a morning ritual of having tea. But I must get rid of the pop (do you call it soda or pop or soda pop or a generic, southern "coke"? Just curious.)
