Soda Sobriety


I have decided to give up soda for one month. I added a Soda Sobriety counter. If you care to see how long its been since my last Mountain Dew, you can click on the link and a popup will let you know.


I am especially excited about this because I read that if you give up one soda per day you will lose 15 pounds in one year. Since I am up to about three cans a day, I figure that if I give up soda altogether for 3 years I will end up weighing only 15 pounds. This seems a little extreme, so I have decided to take it just one month at a time.


I also want to add that I have lots of support from my family in this endeavor. Sadie (our adorable jack russell mix) has agreed not to have a single soda for the next month. And, the children are willing to polish off the last three cans of Mountain Dew left in the fridge so there will be no temptations.


I will let you know how I do.
