I was having such a horrid day. I was suffering from a 3 day sinus headache, credit card numbers for orders were not going through, I messed up an order, my house got dirty overnight after I spent all day Saturday cleaning it, my kid's were driving me insane in the membrane, and I was so sleepy from having taken a 'headache' pill that kept me up all night from its itchy side effects.
I had to do it, I had to grab that bottle of high sugary poison drink and take a shot. The crazy thing is that the first drink was not even good but it called me back to it. It actually called my name! I went back and poured me a second and third and a fourth shot. (As I am typing this I may go take another shot before bed) The taste got better; it had a little kick to it. WOW, I was feeling good, I was happy, my kids were not so bad and my house didn't seem so messy. Life was freaking awesome!
Sigh, I know I can't go back. I can't go back to the poison. The weight gain will destroy me and make me a grumpier mama bear than I already am. Tomorrow is a new day. So help me God, I will do this.
What is your addiction?

Sodas are by far my hardest temptation to give up. But *thankfully*, it's been a year and 3 months and I haven't looked back. I literally cannot have them in the house. Even to this day, I knew if I have just one, it will all go back to the way it was before. I know in my head that's not the truth, but I sometimes feels that way.
ReplyDeleteJust chalk this one up to stress then move on. It happens!
42 days is an awesome accomplishment!! Cut yourself some slack. 1 day at a time. You've got this!! =-)
ReplyDeleteMine is sweet tea. It tastes so good but before I know it I am retaining water and feel like a bloated snail.

DeleteOh no but you did make it a long time. Sweet Tea and prepackaged Grits are two of my biggest vices.

DeleteYou've got this!! Don't give up :) I feel the same way about coffee from Starbucks! It's not even a quality grade of coffee but I am so used to having it that I have to make myself only get 1 a month this year. It has been really hard thus far.
