100 DAYS FOLKS!!!!

100 days
really, seriously? 
I remember wondering when I gave up diet coke that I was going to die.
NO jokes, seriously, going to die. 
Why not?
The headaches were h-e-l-l, I needed my diet coke, why give it up.

But I knew that with how much I loved my diet coke and drank it that it was not good for me.
There was a running joke around the house that I would need to have a 1 year supply (food storage) of my diet coke and that our house was not big enough.
It was all or nothing.
So, I went for the nothing.

I am actually kinda proud of myself. 
When I started this, I thought I could never do it.
There were many days I didn't want to do it.
But, I decided I was worth it.
I was worth teaching myself a lesson that I am worth giving it up.
That I can do something that was hard.
This year has been a year where I really felt like I got nothing accomplished and let myself down on so many levels, so I am glad I did this ONE thing and I taught myself to do something hard.

To me, 100 is a big number.
It's HUGE really.
The next time I get to add a digit is when I hit 100.
And I WILL do it.

Holy Smokes! It has been that long?! GREAT JOB! It gets easier. I still crave a Pepsi now and then and it has been 12 years...but it is not something I ever really feel drawn to anymore.

GOOD JOB!

Hey, have a wonderful Christmas with your family. Thanks for being a good friend. That is something else you can add to your list...you are a wonderful woman and friend. (I can attest!)
