Wish me luck...................

About a year ago, I made a BIG mistake..........I started drinking Diet Coke again. I had quit before my surgery (in fact, I quit July 2005 - cold turkey). Unfortunately, I fell off the wagon . When I first started I couldn't drink very much and of course, it had to be 'flat' (no carbonation). Well, now it has turned into a full fledged HABIT again. I have decided to STOP drinking diet coke once again. I know I'm going to have a horrendous couple of days as the caffeine and the toxins come out of my system; but I know I will feel better. Please wish me luck................ Rose from PA

Hi, fellow diet coke drinker Why do you want to quit? Is your surgeon anti diet soda? I drink diet cherry coke everyday.. sometimes 2 cans a day. My surgeon said they are ok to drink as long as you ge****er in as well. Kay

You know I just started back on diet DR Pepper a few weeks ago and I think it makes me want crunchy salty more and I was thinking hey maybe this isn't such a good idea....maybe I should join you Tori

I agree with Kay, is your surgeon making you quit? I drink 3-4 cups of regular coffee in the morning and that is my allowable caffeine for the day. Maybe you can limit yourself to a certain amount daily and it can be a "treat". I drink diet caffeine free pepsi on occasion & the taste is exactly the same but without the caffeine. Whatver you decide I wish you luck. Hugs, Carly

Good luck Rose....Lucky for me I never got back into the pop scene! hUGS, Chris
