I’ve decided, once again, to cut soda out of my life. Some people have nicotine as a vice, I happen to have a love hate relationship with our friend, the caffeinated beverage. This is probably the third time I’ve attempted to intake less ascorbic acid and fructose corn syrup. I quit at the millennium for almost two years, picked it up again and then quit again in the early 00’s. Now, once more, I am sick of drinking it.
As a corollary, that means I am also cutting out caffeine. Now, I’m a realist and I can’t go cold turkey on caffeine. Several years ago I got to enjoy caffeine withdrawals and it was horrible. I’m not going to do that again so I decided that I WILL be drinking coffee as a substitute. Anyone who knows my coffee habit knows that it’s only something I drink in the mornings and no more than a cup or two. I think that’s fair.
I am going to keep a journal, hopefully, about how I feel as I cut this out over the next 30 days so that anyone who wants to know how to cut caffeine can read what I did and how I felt from day to day. I’ll start posting these tomorrow. These will be a couple of days off until I post everything all at once.
