Well....I wanted to update you all on my recovery...
I did not buy any Mountain Dew this week!!!! Wahoo! I'm so happy about this. What am I drinking? Well, I've been switching it off between several things:
1. Tropicana Twister soda
2. Arizona Green Tea w/ Ginseng & Honey (green tea is supposed to help you lose weight too!)
3. Water
Yes, I've been afflicted with the awful headaches...and I've been SOOOO tired! I have no energy...but I do feel different. I don't have the constant cravings to eat all the time, either! I don't feel as hungry since I quit the Mountain Dew on Friday. Yes...I said Friday!
I was doing a little research and apparently the side effects can last up until 9 days after stopping the caffeine...so we'll see. But I really am proud of this accomplishment! Although I'm in the beginning stages, the caffeine should be completely out of my system in about 2 weeks.
