quit drinking pop

I’ve stopped purchasing pop for my home, and I’ve been ordering water when out to eat. I’ll give it another week or so and consider this accomplished :) I may still drink it on occasion as a special treat, and I’m ok with that!

I’m proud. I’ve been doing pretty well on this so far. I may need to allow it while on vacation so I don’t drive myself crazy.

I have had some pop this week, but it was because my mother visited and bought a 2 liter and left it in my fridge. Ugh. I haven’t bought any, and have had water when out to eat. I’m on the right path for this goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’ve been good at this for one week. The only pop I had was when a friend ordered one for me at lunch before she knew I was giving it up. Other than that, I’ve had water or chosen a beverage sweetened with truvia or stevia rather than pop!!!!!!!!!

Today is my last day with pop. I’m going to try to go Cold Turkey. But I will probably move to coffee at least it won’t rot my teeth.

i am still drinking pop….

i need an alternative that is cheap easy and convenient.

Water!

I had gotten really bad about the pop thing again and have noticed over the past few days that I’m getting better again. Not really trying, just not keeping it in the house and have gone back to just getting a pop from the corner store when I want one. Usually it’s the first thing I want in the morning, but I’ve been drinking V8 Vegetable juice or V8 V-Fusion Blueberry and Pomegranate juice in the mornings instead and trying to carry a bottle of water around with me everywhere I go. I’ve ended up not really thinking about the pop until sometime in the afternoon or evening. Yeah me!!

There is only one place I have found that has decent fountain pop, so this makes it easier to not drink pop when we’re out somewhere. I hate bottled pop and canned pop is starting to taste completely disgusting. I’m hoping this means I’m getting tired of it and that I keep wanting it less and less.

Planning on a lot of lemon water (will help clean the old toxins and garbage from smoking, etc out of my system), but I need to find something that will replace the pop. I’m thinking gatoraid. I bought some of the v8 fruit splash and it takes disgusting so I’m thinking maybe gatorade?? Want something that won’t stain my teeth and is healthy…especially if it has bubbles in it and no aspartamine or other fake/killer sugars in it.

I was doing great, then I got sick, puked up a bunch of sweet tea and now I can’t even stand talking about it much less trying to drink it.

Going to be working on this goal again now. Not sure how but getting my teeth fixed and all white and pretty should help me a LOT.
