Soda help

Soda is one of my favorite things to drink and If I drink it, I cannot stop!!! I will continue to drink it all day...

I have been off soda for 9 days!!!!!!  HUGE step for me!! I have been off coffee just as long... I am only drinking water. No juice, nothing but water.
I have been fine since I started but today I am having a major caffiene headache and I do not know how to kick it without blowiing all the hard work I have been doing or drinking soda because I wont stop if I do...

Does anyone else have this issue? what do you do to fix it?

  • Maybe try some dark chocolate - 70% cacao or higher?
  • Is there a reason you've ditched the coffee? Coffee is not bad for you at all. 
  • I ditched coffee because I cannot drink it without cream and sugar in it and I did not want to add the extra cals into my 1200 cals a day.

  • Well the good news is once you get past this hump the headaches should stop and you should be withdrawal free!

    I recommend green tea or black tea. I'm not a huge tea fan myself, but it's better for you than coffee and obviously lower calorie than chocolate :)

  • I CANNOT stand tea but I guess to get rid of it, I will try it...
     
    I really want to try the new workout I was given so I need something to overcome this with and keep the motivation of having something new to do. I will try tea and see how to goes...

    Thanks

  • Well Kwitherington I think you might win because I hate tea that much. I have my running shoes on so it will be a matter to changing into work out clothes when I get home. I went for a short walk when it first came on trying to get it to go away but I cant leave my desk for more then 5 min unless at lunch at work so maybe a 10 minute walk/jog like you suggested earlier will help. If not, tea tomorrow if I get another one.

  • Thanks stage... If walking / jogging does not work after I leave work tonight, I will make it up to walgreens and get some. I will just keep them in my purse!! I have had them before but I have never been more serious about losing some of this weight so I cannot use soda to fall back on and give in to the temptation.

    Thank you
