Soda is my nemesis. My dad and I went to one of our regular lunch spots and I ordered a root beer without even thinking. Thankfully, I did better with the food and got a burger patty salad instead of a burger and fries, but the soda was more than the rest of the meal. Silver lining, I did not get a refill and instead asked for water once I had finished my cup of root beer. Celebrate the small victories, right?

That's a BIG victory! Soda is VERY addictive! I'm a recovering Diet Coke Addict, myself. It used to be that I would work really hard for a couple weeks or months, and then have "just one," which inevitably turned into 2-liters a day. Now, I am able to just have one 12-oz. can a day without going crazy. GREAT job on skipping the bun and fries, AND for stopping the root beer after the first cup. It's a learning process. I used to actually DREAM that I was accidentally ordering things I shouldn't! You're doing great! Keep up the good work!

Thanks! And good job for kicking the soda habit! I have a coffee habit that I can't seem to kick (trying to stop the caffeine intake more than anything). I only drink one cup a day, but I've stopped and started the habit a million times at this point. Good to know there is hope.

Well, it's a habit I've had since 8th grade, and that was 52 years ago! Hopefully, it won't take you as long as it has ME to get to this point!

We have a local root beer company that serves drive in food during the summers. I love their diet root beer. For some reason the sassafras keeps it from tasting like diet. I wish they would make diet drinks with Stevia here like they do in Japan. Anyway—once in a while is my rule but when they serve it in an iced mug on a summer day? What joy!
