One of this months new things Self Control

I am a LOVER of Diet coke it is the only soda I will drink. My husband always tells me that I am addicted to coke and I never believed him until last month. Every time I go shopping I would buy a coke not even thinking anything of it and never thinking I was addicted (I would drink at least 1 or 2 a day). Last month while I was shopping my little girl went up to the freezer grabbed a Diet coke and said here mom I know you are going to get one of these because you always do. It really made me think I had stopped drinking as much water as I did before and replaced it with Diet coke. So that is why this month I am teaching myself self control. I was told it takes 21 days to break a bad habit so for 21 days I will not touch Diet coke. I am on day 10 because I started a little early and besides the bad headaches for the first week it has not been to bad. So every month I will learn something new and do something to help better myself and my life.

Kristyn, You are so strong. I drink 2 a day! When we drive thru sonic my kids ask for diet cokes. Someday I will give it up. Maybe when my kids are married. :)

This is motivating to me to just stop drinking coke just because. I never drink caffeine when I am pregnant, I am 8 months now and I still crave and think about it almost daily. You can bet it will be one of the first things I do after I have this little one next month is drink a coke. Good luck I hope you can keep going with your goal!
