About 6 years ago I quit coffee cold turkey. Felt like I was walking through mud for about 6 months - seriously sluggish and in slo-mo. Then one day, I woke up and was my old, naturally-spazzy self again. YAYS! Natural high--woohoo! I can't wait until you're in Texas - we'll go wild together!phlegmfatalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08636803080525003892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36613281.post-81625085556897813492008-03-28T00:39:00.000-04:002008-03-28T00:39:00.000-04:00Yup. I haven't lost a pound, but I FEEL better. I ...Yup. I haven't lost a pound, but I FEEL better. I drink one cup of half/caff coffee mixed with soymilk every morning, then it's water all day long. Giving someone a massage right after I ate lunch used to be torture...after drinking two glasses of diet coke with my meal I'd be totally bloated and gassy (if I may be indelicate for a moment). NOT fun.<BR/><BR/>This has certainly been the longest I've gone without drinking soda since I've been an adult. I used to LIVE on soda. And I can't believe I haven't been through the McDonald's drive-thru once in the past four weeks. That's definitely also a record for me. Which doesn't speak well of my previous eating habits, now does it?Christina RN LMThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03260505524676910667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36613281.post-33505541958806296692008-03-27T22:38:00.000-04:002008-03-27T22:38:00.000-04:00Well, gawrsh, I was just mentioning that I kicked ...Well, <I>gawrsh</I>, I was just mentioning that I kicked the soda habit...<BR/><BR/>I've lost count, but I think it's been at least a month since I had my last diet soda (if you don't count the nearly flat ginger ale in my emergency Bourbon & Ginger at lunch a few days ago.)<BR/><BR/>Those little iced tea flavor packets are the berries...I've been chugging at least a half dozen 16-ounce glasses of water a day. My intestinal troubles have disappeared...imagine that.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05796690368588471378noreply@blogger.com
