drink more water

Praise God I am doing well drinking more water. I am most pleased because I have quit drinking diet soda, now I am working on cutting out all artificial sweetners & hoping for a weight loss. Guess I need to set a new goal & mark this one done!

Well I have not back slid on this goal, I am treading water. I haven’t made any more changes…well now that I think abour it I guess I have, I am drinking Dasani raspberry water at work now instead of soda. My soda intake this past week was two bottle (20 oz)!!!! That is awesome for me. I miss it a wee bit, but my desire for carbination is fading…Praise God!

Drinking water used to be soooo hard for me to do, now I find myself craving it & preferring it to anything else. Since giving up diet coke for a time I drank sugar drinks & juices which now compared to water leave an awful taste in my mouth. I haven’t noticed any weight loss yet, but I imagine my inside much cleaner!

I am quite pleased with myself…the last two times I went to play Bingo I drank water instead of soda!!! Along with my not buying soda for home this is another big step for me. Now I have to tackle work & going out to eat.

As I stated in an earlier entry, I have quit drinking diet coke & this has helped me to get intouch with my thirst. This week I did not buy any beverage to have in my house except water, so it gave me no choice but to drink water. I am drinking about 30 oz each night. Water is truly becoming my friend, I am really liking it’s good qualities, it is good to have a friend that is healthy!

I can’t believe it, I really can’t believe it. After years & years of drinking diet coke…I bought one today because I have slowly been weening myself on the stuff for at least a month now & I hated it! It tastes awful. My old love I believe at this point is beyond reconcialtion. I have been drinking a bit more water…16-20 ounces per day. I have also started drinking Tropicana Fruit Squeeze which is 35 calories a bottle without splenda or artificial sweeteners. It is good.
