Today I ran for Sue.
I’m tired but it’s the good tired. I went for a run at lunch today and really pushed my body when my mind said to stop. It’s the battle that I’m sure we all face; to keep going when your head is screaming stop.
I have an addiction that I’m once again fighting and it’s so hard. I crave it and it calls to me. I’m addicted to QT (Quick Trip) soda. Almost every day for at least 5 years I have stopped at QT and grabbed a 32 oz fountain soda. My usual mix is about 75% Diet Mountain Dew and 25% Code Red. I have tried to stop many times and it always pulls me back. Well I’m trying again! Yesterday was day 1 and I’m feeling it. I just don’t have the energy and my mind even seems a little slower. I have in the past had headaches when I tried to stop but this time it seems a little better. As far as addictions go I didn’t think this was that bad but I did just see this http://www.thatsfit.com/2006/10/09/want-a-quick-trip-to-diabetes-osteoporosis-tooth-decay-and-obe/ and I can always tell when I drink too much soda because my hands swell. So I’ going to cut it out (or way down) for good this time. I hope!

Way to go on your run. I have the same sofa problem. I go in spurts. Sometimes I'll drink it a couple times a day and then Ill go a few weeks without one.Good luck on quitting the soda
Man, Kevin has a sofa problem ;) Must get expensive! Heehee.
I have a diet coke addiction that I kicked for a while (nothing but water) and then started drinking it again. I'm attempting to kick the habit again, we'll see how it goes.
Oh... I'm with you on this one!! I LOVE fountain Diet Coke... and if it were up to me, I'd drink it all day long. So I've cut down to one a day. I can't give it up completely yet though. Everyone's got to have something! :)
Good Luck!
Ooohh I hear you! But my prob is not soda but coffee. I "try" and stop but I always get sucked back in.
