Soda

I am so proud of myself. I haven't drank any sodas for a whole 31 days. This is a biggie for me. The grocery store has sales on soda, 5 for $5.00. I'd buy 5 and at night I pour a big glass (20 ozs) of soda. I have been drinking more water. Sometimes when I get tired of water I drink water with one of those Hawaiian packets (1/2 packet) which is only 5 calories. One night I was in the mood for some hot tea. I fixed a cup of chamomile Honey Vanilla Tea (Twinnings) and 1 Splenda packet. I was surprised to find that it was zero calories. So now when I want to drink something I drink herbal teas. I'm getting into cooking more from scratch. I made vegetable beef soup and tonight I'm making chili.
