140 Days and Counting

Sunday was 140 days, 20 weeks without soda. I wish I could say it's no longer a struggle, that it's easy now. But that would be a lie. It's not always a struggle, but the cravings still crop up. You may wonder why this is a big deal. Perhaps you can have a little bit here and there. I can't seem to do that. If I have one, I want another one. One about once a month becomes one a week becomes one a day becomes two a day becomes three a day. (Usually it stops about there, when I TRY to turn things around again.) And it seems that when I'm drinking soda, my eating habits are poorer as well. So I've had to cut it out of my life for now. And I'm succeeding. Yay! But this battle is not won; it's ongoing.
