Try to make me go to rehab but I said no, no, no.
I didn’t think withdrawal would be this hard. I have tried to stop drinking pop, and I am only on my second day…and ready to snap. I feel like I am withdrawing from crack or something harder than that! I have a headache, I am tired, everything…every little noise is like a nail being driven into my head. Anyone making the slighest loud outburst makes me want to cry. Needless to say, Jessica is not the happiest right now. Granted this hasn’t had any effect on the heart problem part of me…yet. Only the second day!!!
I have known that I needed to stop drinking pop because its just not the best thing for you. I had people telling me that they dropped weight after stopped drinking pop, and I am looking forward to that. But oh my Lord!
Wish me luck…

It is hard!! I’m addicted to Dr Pepper with Imperial Pure Cane Sugar — it’s a country thing that you can find in tiny glass bottles out here in the Texas hillside. Luckily those are only 100 cals apiece and I let myself have one about once a week.
Other than that I had to stop cold turkey and it was HARD. Luckily I like iced tea without sugar so I’ve done that a bunch. But my biggest savior has been Pellegrino with fresh lime — it tastes VERY refreshing and almost yummy enough to make me fool myself that I’m drinking coke.
Good luck!!

Oh, me and Dr. Pepper have been best friends for awhile.
I am doing better as the days go by though. I might have to get a case of that Pellegrino and play some tricks with my head…thanks for the tip!
