Oh, Diet Coke













I know what I am about to say may shock many of you, but my Diet Coke drinking days are over.  I have not had a Diet Coke in 4 weeks!  That's right, I gave it up cold turkey (hopefully for good)...and all it took was one comment from a mom in my homeschool group about the affects of aspartame on your body.

As many of you know, Diet Coke had become my go-to on stressful days, when really I should have been relying on the Lord.  I used to limit myself to 2 a day, but lately had been drinking more like 4 a day!  I still miss it some days, but am trying not to cave into temptation.  I will have to find a cold substitute for hot summer days, but now I pretty much drink water and hot tea...lots of tea!

So, if you thought it was impossible for Danielle to give up Diet Coke...be amazed! :)  Where there is a will there is a way.

Hugs!

  2. Okay and I realized I just commented on the wrong post! LOL!
    And for Diet coke...this is my soda of choice, but I don't drink it (except when I go to the movies;)) anymore for the same reason! Can't believe what apsartame does!
