stop drinking diet Coke

Well the picture I was going to treat myself to has now been shipped back to America, which may be part of the reason I find myself failing so badly at this challenge. Last two days i’ve drunk diet coke and i’m also finding myself drinking lots of tea. Bah. Fed up with this stupid habit, can I go into rehab now please?

I drank another can of DC today- I was really tired and couldn’t fight off temptation any longer. Well I guess I don’t get that picture after all.

I cracked…today when I was in my ceramics class I got so thirsty I had to get a drink. There were no cups for the water and the only cold drink was from the coke machine…Oh well I lasted a week and if I can just think that’s a one off and carry on it’s ok I guess.

Going on what normally happens when I make an update like that, i’ll probably pop out to the shops and buy some in a minute…

If I can keep off diet coke til the end of Feb then I am going to allow myself to buy this drawing from Kate Bingaman’s show . I really want a drawing from the show and if I avoid the diet coke until then I will have earnt a treat and saved enough cash to buy one.

this is soo ooooooo hard

well after posting about how it had been over a week since I drank the dreaded stuff I obviously went straight out and got me some. I guess i’m ok as long as I don’t actually think about the fact i’m not thinking about drinking it!
I’ve got a horrible cold at the moment and even though I know the DC is probably not helping it, i’m finding it really appealing at the moment, and making excuses for drinking it almost every day.

I’ve just realised that I haven’t had a diet coke since the week before xmas – so that’s at least a week without Diet Coke, which considering I haven’t even noticed i’ve gone without is a pretty amazing thing. I’ve tried everything in the past to kick this habit (including sticker charts) but maybe I just need to forget about it for a while instead.

I’m sure now i’ve written this i’ll be popping down the shops and picking up a can of the stuff…
