1 Week in and NO soda

Oh man, dosen't that look goooood. (slobber, slobber)

5 lbs of sugar not ingested this week.

I probably averaged 3 44oz a day on a heavy week.


Holy Crap that's a lot. That's 5 gallons of soda a week.


Now I am drinking water out the wazoo. I just need to add

a little sugar, some bubbles and brown food coloring. Yummy!!!


So far so good though. No soda for a week. No headaches.

Pretty easy so far.


No weight loss yet. Hopefully I can find time to throw in a little exercise.


Bye

Good for you! Soda is the devil!! I told Chris that I would support him going on a bike ride every other saturday morning. You two should ride together and get some exercise.

Mark is going 30 days without soda. He had to start over the next day, but I know he can do it! I'm with Chanda, soda is the devil!!

Well Dixon, you're a better man than I am! LOL :) I won't tell you that I just pulled one out of the freezer to drink it nice and icy...
Sorry. Seriously, you can so do this. My sister has been "dry" for at least a year now. Myself, well I only allow myself one glass a day. Maybe one of these days I'll join everyone else that is "on the wagon".

Way to go Dix! You're on your way to becoming a lean, mean fat fighting machine. Daren wants to join you at the gym. Don't forget to get some good before pictures!

Mostly I'm just glad 'cause we want you to be around for a while and that much soda will surely kill you off sooner than non-soda, xango only drinkers. :)
