Day 04-My name is Sarah and I'm a Pepsi-holic

Day 04- A habit that you wish you didn't have...

I am totally, completely, and uncontrollably addicted to PEPSI. I just have to have it. It tastes so smooth and refreshing, the effervescent sweetness trickling down my throat... I have to have it with lots of ice, because it has to be cold... like subzero cold. Ok maybe not that cold, but you get my point.
I wish I didn't have this habit- ok scratch that, it's a full blown addiction- because soda is known for its bloating and weight gain effects. Also, it can get pretty pricey. At some stores here a 12pack is 7.99!! Also, its a lot of sugar and caffeine to be consuming. Now when I was pregnant, I restricted myself to only one Pepsi a day, and I was very good about that. But as soon as that little bugger was born, I had a huge glass of Pepsi. In the hospital. Seriously... mere hours after my c-section. I attempt to stop now and then, ok several times a year... but it's really hard for me. I will do so good for like a week, and then I will just have a moment where I think, I need a Pepsi. And the cycle continues.

  1. LOL At least it's just Pepsi and not some other freak addiction like laundry detergent or bars of soap. BTW Have you seen the show called, "My Strange Addiction?"

  3. Update on my Pepsi addiction:
    I have been going to physical therapy and have a plan to slowly decrease my pepsi intake. I am in the process of transitioning from regular pepsi to caffeine free, and then I will transition from caffeine free to FREEDOM from Pepsi!
