I didn't mean to put this on here...it was supposed to be in my personal journal.
Oh well!!
100mg caffeine pill shortly before my workout because I was feeling extra sluggish... I drank only one Diet Coke other than that. Met my goal of no more than 2 servings of caffeine a day.
First day of this dare. I'm a sucker for Diet Coke & coffee. I'm trying to replace soda again with water & herbal teas & make both soda & coffee a rare thing. Today I had no sodas & one & a half cups of coffee. Not too bad. My goal right now is to not have any more than 2 caffeinated beverages a day.
72 hours without Pepsi and it feels good! I still crave it but not having it in the house has been the key to not drinking it.
i will cut way back on coffee, coke and chocolate. not yet ready to give up hot tea.
If i can quit drinking coke then i will have made a huge accomplishment.
Drank pop the last week of the year with the excuse that I needed the energy to make it through work....now I have to start all over again.
I had a coke with my dinner at Smokey Bones. We went out for Mike's birthday.
I think I did good on total calories for the day with all the walking (shopping) I did.
I'm proud of myself for not getting a drink refill!
I don't have any more Pepsi in the house. My goal is to not drink any in the house. I will allow myself to have a glass when we eat out, which I am also trying to cut back on.
I tried this once before and went about five months before I bought some for the house for a party we were having.
The initial withdrawal will be the hardest part. The headache is the worst part but I've gotten through it before so I know I can do it again.
This morning was the worst - I really wanted to drink some black tea. I was so tired and needed to get stuff done. But I pushed on and got moving and I do feel better now. Glad I did not give in and drink tea.
All I had yesterday was two cups of green tea (minimal caffine) and I sleeped great last night. Good to know that I don't have to buy some decaf green tea.
I haven't had any today, or for the last 5 days. I might have some later since it's Christmas, but my focus has been on drinking 64 oz of water, and I've successfully done so for those 5 days :)
Merry Christmas!!!

Tomorrow I quit for 90 days....going into training for the Summit 5/10 K to see how much weight I can get rid of and how much better shape I can get in....getting rid of ALL pop will be huge for that!
