How I did it
It made me
Healthy 
How I did it: Decided to do it. Picked a time when I didn't have a lot of plans and didn't have work - the Easter long weekend worked for me. Found something with a bit of caffeine to help me get through the withdrawal headaches - I used black tea, but have even stopped using that now. Allowed myself a bit of fizzy on occasion - lemonade (with no caffeine) worked well. Read how I did it…
