Welchmom2's Journal, 27 February 2008

This no diet coke thing is killing me slowly. Somehow it is making me want to turn to my old habit of eating "comfort food". Did a little bad last night and gave in, but today is a new day. Going to take it 1 hour at a time instead of the one day at a time while trying to convince my body that it does not need caffeine....
Don't have a headache already this am like I have the past 2 days so maybe the caffeine withdraws are getting better...With the cheats I did, hoping for a 1/2 - 1lb loss this week. Not being greedy. Ughhhh.... just never realized that 20 years of diet coke could have such an incredibly huge impact on me... thought I drank it cuz I loved it... it's as much as an addiction for me as food is. Shoot, might as well quit smoking too now and just throw my world into a fast spin...actually, that is next, but not until I hit at least my 2nd weight loss goal which is 15 more lbs gone.... one hour at a time. I have tons of work today, so probably won't be on line. Good luck FS buddies and think thin......:)

"Diet, decaffeinated, sugar-free sodas and drinks" The above statement is on the Phase 1 list on the SB website. Why can't you have caffeine free diet coke? I'm confused. Please enlighten me since I'm new to this diet and trying to stay on track :-)

Grundoone, I went from a mountain dew addiction, to diet md, now diet coke... I could I guess drink caffeine free, but my body has had the reg diet coke for over 20 years and My body and mind are dying slowly (being dramatic..) without it.I never realized how caffeine truly affected me until I stopped the last 3 days. I am withdrawing, although today is day 3 and my head is not pounding as bad as the last 2 days. They say artificial sweetner is not good either, but that could always change tomorrow. Good one day, bad the next. Just trying to change my whole lifestyle as I go down this horrible, long journey of change. Taking it day by day... Good luck to you and being here on FS, you will see, is a true blessing...
