quit drinking soda

Ever heard of the gas station, Quick Trip? During the summer they have a special deal on soda. Thirty-two ounces for forty-nine cents. It was niiice! I could run up there and just grab a quick 32 ounces during one of my fifteen minute breaks at work. I love the carbonation of those soda fountains! Well, now the deal’s over. So though this is sad, now that I am trying to quick my soda drinking, it is a good thing! I’m still drinking soda only three days a week but now I’m drinking two soda cans (24 oz) as opposed to 32 oz.

Getting there.

My goal is to quit drinking soda entirely but I’m setting a smaller goal to begin with. I’m starting by only drinking soda three days a week. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

Sunday we had a get together at my mom’s house for her birthday and I had about half a two liter. However, I decided not to have soda on Monday. It was a weak justification but nonetheless, I didn’t have soda on Monday.

Tuesday, however, I got a soda when I filled up the car with gas. I have a discount card that the local high school sells every year that gives you a free soda when you get 8 gallons or more of gas. I couldn’t pass that one up. So now it is Wednesday. I’m sitting here with a full day of work ahead of me and a cup of coffee.
