I'm looking for a 12 step program for my one and only addiction.
DIET COKE.
I LOVE IT.
Here's my rationale:
I only have 1 a day. Lunchtime.
Did I say that I love it? I love the bubbles, the flavor, the caffeine. (It does have caffeine, yes?)
I have tried to quit.
I gave up.
It is the elixir of life.
Today, I read an article about bad things in processed foods. We do not eat a lot of processed foods at my house. We cook. We cook from scratch. I bake. I bake breads, cookies, cakes. I don't like most cookies that you buy at the store - even from the 'bakery' aisle. Oreos leave a bad taste in my mouth. We eat lots of fresh fruits and veggies. We're slowly switching to organic foods - milk, eggs, meats. Know why? Organic milk, eggs and meats do NOT come from animals that have been fed hormones and antibiotics. My friend Cathy raises chickens. We get most of our eggs from her. YUM.
So......what is with the DIET COKE ADDICTION?????
Do you know what artificial sweeteners can do to you? oooooo bad things.
Including messing with your metabolism. (Is that why I can't lose weight?)
Linked to cancer.
etc. etc etc.
Anybody have any suggestions?? Please post here.
