addiction update

So my plan was to update my blog more often about my journey to quit drinking diet pepsi or anything with artificial sweetener in it, but I have been so busy. I went 1 week without taking a drink of DP. I didn't want or crave it at all. i was very surprised. I thought for sure it would be so hard. It must have been a sign that I needed to quit. But I went to Bend to visit my sister and we had pizza. And you CAN NOT have pizza with out a pop. But I only had a tiny bit. And again to my surprise it didn't taste as good as I thought it was going to. Whenever I want something other than water to drink I will get an iced tea without sweetener in it.

So on my second week I did really good too. The only time I really drank DP was after my half marathon. My dear friend's Desi and Mindy brought me one at the finish line, but I only took a few drink of it and threw it away. And then today I did have a can at lunch. But I am not going to go back onto my 2 32oz cups of it a day. I am going to try and stay away from it. If I am out to dinner or something I MAY have one, but I will try and always get a tea.
