An open apology..

Dear Soda(s),


I don't know where to start , so I'm going to be direct and honest with you.
This letter about how I feel towards you, should have been written probably sooner than later.
Lately I just haven't been feeling the same about us and the direction we are heading.
As you know some big changes have been made about the way I live and the way I think.
And all of these changes have forced me to make a self evaluation.
I have to be honest with you my feelings have changed. I don't see a future for us anymore.
I known this is the last thing you want to hear from me.
Please try to understand. Don't think this is easy for me. It is probably the most difficult thing
I have ever had to do.

Love, Tummy

    I know that letter! LOL. I used to always drink diet soda only. I made the decision to split with that as well. For over 2 months I have had no soda of any type. Only coffee, water and milk :) Congrats on your break up with soda!

    I've done the same but only about 3 weeks so far lol but I haven't really missed it, I've still got an open bottle in the fridge but just don't want it - How great is coffee, water and milk - I only have 1 sugar in my coffee now and even that is starting to taste too sweet. I love it KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK EVERYONE!!

    I realised the other day that the only reason I drink diet soda anymore is that I resent paying the same money for a bottle of water when I'm out. Crazy, right?

    But once I realised that, I started just carrying a water bottle with me - hey presto, no more diet soda. I can't believe I've been hanging onto it for that stupid reason, when I don't even really like it.

    I've lost plenty of weight drinking diet Pepsi... guzzling the regular Pepsi is what got me into trouble.

    I have given up my VATS of diet pepsi that I was drinking all day. I now keep a small bottle of diet rite in the fridge and when I get that urge I just take a swig out of it and walk away...does me wonders and I don't feel like I am giving any thing up....so instead of my break up letter...I am more like cheating on my water :-)

    Awesome! I quit soda 4 years ago. Never looking back. Be proud.

    I struggle with this daily, quitting Pepsi has been much more difficult than it was for me to quit smoking 6 years ago.

    I broke up with Diet Pepsi about a month ago and it was just like any other breakup. At first I craved/yearned for it, then I found myself not missing it. I had sip of one last week and about gagged. It is hard to believe I used to guzzle forty four ounces of the stuff at a time.

    Ya know... I gave up Tab and cigarettes around the same time (1991) and I have to say the one that I still crave is Tab. Something in that recipe!!! Hang in there, though, it does get easier and I do feel better without it.

    I thought this way too at one time, you're not alone.

  • Dear Tummy of Fungaar on9886,

    I understand. Do what you gotta do. I was taking away a lot and not giving anything. We will always have the good times before you got all obsessed with me. I don't know what it is but a lot of people get attached to me, maybe because I am so sweet, maybe because I am so cheap and easy. Take care.

    Love,

    Soda
