how do you feel? a bit anxious because I think I am going to have to give up my once a week soda or at least cut it down to a 12 ounce can. Usually I satisfy my Coke craving by giving in once a week but I am realizing that although I am staying under my calories (thank God for the exercise) the amount I am consuming in liquid format could be less and I would lose more. I perused my diary and I realize that hundreds of my daily calories is usually in the liquid form, whether it be tea with honey, Koolaid, Lemonade, coffee or soda (once a week). If I cut these out or at least in half I would see better results, because I realize that these don't full me (well other than the coffee, I realize that one cup and my hunger disappears for hours), they don't satisfy a physical need, these are merely psychologically fulfilling but I won't cause harm to myself if I cut them out or severely cut them down. And really and truly I am starting to believe I am self sabotaging myself with these drinks and I should know better.

I think this week I am going to make a conscious decision to not have more than 120 calories a day from liquid. I am going to go back to my cucumber or celery water. Wish me luck
