    I am a long time coke drinker, and as of two weeks ago I stopped drinking it cold turkey, drank herbal tea instead and dealt with the caffeine headaches,

    Then today i went to a pep rally at my job, and I was late so i snuck in the back and they had sodas and cookies, and so i grabbed a coke and some ice and made my way to a free seat.

    Once i sat down i looked in my hand. I took the coke automatically, but then realized...wait a second I am noty having these any more, so i set it on the floor and left it alone.

    this was a huge victory for me because I was thirsty, stressed b/c i was late, and then to stop myself after I had grabbed that can out of habit. I was proud and just wanted to share!!

    There you go! Coca Cola is my favorite soda. I haven't had one in a while but the last time it taste too sweet. I couldn't even finish it. I luv your username by the way. :smile:

    Great job on the willpower to set it down and not drink it!

    I stopped drinking it about 5 years ago... At first it was a challenge since I always had a diet coke in my hand. Then, after a few months I cheated and drank one... well, half of one. It was disgusting.

    Very cool!! My downfall is sweets. I am trying to redirect myself to a nice cup of tea instead. So many yummy kinds to choose from and I have a great collection. Keep up the good work!
