Off the sugar...

Ok, so I am off the sugar.  I've been detoxing this week and it hasn't been pretty.  My main addiction...SODA!  I don't drink that fake diet stuff, I drink that good old straight from the cane (then refined of course) S-U-G-A-R!  Oh how I miss it!  It's getting easier.  It's kind of like when you and a boyfriend break up and you have to get used to not having the companionship anymore.  Everyday that I continue on I find it easier to say "no" to temptations that are always thrown my way (especially at work).  I work with food and soda ALL DAY LONG!  Days 1 and 2 were especially hard, ending in migraines.  Days 3 and 4 there were no headaches.  I decided to do this because I want to make healthier choices.  Yes, I know soda isn't all that bad...when you drink it in moderation.  I'm not so sure I can do that.  So from now until further notice, I won't be drinking it.  Although my mouth waters for it, every day!  I even had a dream last night that I was at my parents house (this coming weekend) and they were having a get together.  I momentarily lapsed and started drinking this:   

Jessica's worst addiction

I am proud to say that in my dream I did think about whether (since I had already taken a drink) I wanted to stop drinking it and drink water, or continue on because I had already screwed up.  I don't remember which I chose, because there were other things going on in my dream, but I'm glad I at least stopped and thought about it.  Dustin says that I should treat myself on the weekend and just buy the mini soda cans and drink those, I said no.  That will totally defeat what I am trying to do.  I need to cut it out completely.  Maybe I'll reintroduce it at some point!  Good-Bye for now my friend!  :o(
