Ode to Soda Pop!!!!

My name is Mendi and I am addicted to soda. I don't drink a 64oz of soda but I do have 2-12oz cans a day and that is 370 calories on soda!! I have tried to stop the morning soda but then end up with major caffeine headaches and then I am right back to my two a day and as I think of trying to be healthier this is clearly the 1st thing that needs to go but it is sooo hard.... I feel like a junkie but I am giving up the POP for thirty days!!!

I found this article for extra  motivation to "Stop the POP"  here is the first paragraph that caught my attention.
Some people drink soda pop as if it is water, some even instead of water. Sure, the primary ingredient is water, but, with all the other “stuff” it contains it can have a…toxic…poisonous…lethal…venomous… seriously harmful effect on your entire body. Drinking soda pop is a sure-fire way to age faster. Read it here
Ohhh soda pop how I do love you but alias it is time to go as I drink my last sip of cold mountain dew - in the can I am sad and not looking forward to the terrible f'n headache that I will receive in the morning but I am armed with my Excedrin and hopefully that will get me through these next 30 days!

Anybody else have a vice they want to quit with me????
