Hooray!

Mignon--Way to go.  Especially on keeping it in perspective!!!!  Save that 60$.

Day 1 without an ounce of Diet Coke. War, starvation, physical pain and limitation are occurring all over the world and I'm trepidatious about getting through a day without Diet Coke. And yet, it's so. Green tea at my side. (I was spending $2 a day on coke, that's $60 a month!)

I've been here every day, Sis

Mignon--Congratulations on leaving soda.  I'm struggling a little.  Just staying the course.  I need to amp up the physical part of this journey.  The weather here is crazy.  We are apparently headed for a rough patch over the next several days.
Stay strong.

Feeling alone in Near-Afterland. Awaiting my blogmates' arrival. Hopefully, this morning I just drank my last Diet Coke, for this moment in time. All gone. No more anywhere to be found in my apartment. I'm transitioning to Zerowater with a six-pack of Diet Hansen's. My 2 beautiful water bottles stand at the ready atop the refrigerator. Wish me good luck.

but absent. where does the time go

So I've been thinking about setting an intention to go cold turkey off Diet Coke on October 1 -- and thus to rediscover the joy of drinking water! I can't recall ever getting this much of a mental payoff from Diet Coke as I have in the past 4, going on 5, months. Pop, pop, fizz, fizz, oh, what a relief it is, etc. Now that October 1 approaches, however, I don't want to end the love affair, even though I know I should. I'll keep you posted. In the meantime, let me say this. It is my intention to set an intention to get off the stuff. Amen.
