So far....

We're doing good! We are into day 3 (or 56 hours) without any soda. My last drink of soda was at somewhere in the 8'oclock hour on Friday night.

I'm not sure if the headaches I am having are from the caffiene withdrawl, the weather or the new medication I'm taking. I guess it could be all three. I have done well with drinking lots of water today. That's a good thing!

I was able to get some good, solid sleep. That helped me a ton. Once I fell asleep, I slept very hard. I ended up waking up sweating...alot! That is one thing this new medicine does that I don't care for. I sweat much more than I used to. Thank goodness for deodorant! :)

I'm starting to believe that this might really be MY time to find ME. I am surely hoping so. I feel like each day I am ripping a new layer away. Day by day, I am trying to uncover the person that I know is deep within. Soon, the rest of the world will be able to see her as well.

The appetite hasn't diminished completely but it is quite less than before. I am just not hungry. I have increased my fresh fruits and water intake by at least 200%. I have dropped all soda out of my "diet" (I hate that word). It has been only a couple days but I can feel the difference in my body. Of course, it's a positive thing. It sure is hard though.
