Nice seeing all of you!!

Sheila- I went cold turkey. I was also a Diet Mountain Dew junkie myself, as well as Diet Vanilla Coke! I will tell you it was so hard!
I had migraines for two weeks straight and I was so sleepy during the day. It was scary to see how much my body depended on caffeine to do what my body should have been doing in the first place. After the first two weeks, the third week as well as the fourth, were spotted headaches and yearning. After that it was easy and I found myself with a much better sleep pattern and I was awake all day long. The hardest part is giving up chocoalate!! Oh do I love the stuff!

I'm really hoping to have my act together by January 1st. I got the gym thing going regularly and the caffeine free part done. Now I just need to stay away from flour, sugar, and the other bad carbs. Just keep them away. Being a carbaholic isn't easy at all.
So no sugar for me for now!
