Its tough I have to say it. Soda is my drug of choice and its hard to kick it. I did do it before so I know I can do it. I will allow myself some Coke zero in a few days but I just have to get it out of my system. WW isn't bad because you can still eat.
Re: 1st day of soda detox and WW
I LOVE WW. It allows you to "cheat" and still be on program with your flex points. I have been on it for 2 months now, and although I havent weighed myself, I have lost a bit of weight, my pants are much looser and my face is thinner.
I will weigh myself on My 9th (my 2 month anniversary) and start weigh- ins weekly after that. I just couldn't bare to see how much I weighed when I started, LOL
Another thing to bolster your resolve: cola drinks have phosphoric acid in them, and they basically suck the calcium out of your bones. Give up cola and avoid osteoporosis later.
I cut out Diet Coke almost completely once I heard that.
