I am hanging in there and have lost yet another 2 pounds!

Go me! I have decided why wait until January to stop drinking Diet Pepsi? I had 4- 44 ounce DP's on Saturday and realized that I have a problem! At $1.40 per 44 ounce and all that poison now is the best time to try to quit! Going "cold Turkey " on this one...YIKES! Today is day 2 and I made it but I must say that I have been watering at the mouth all day..now do I think it is addictive...Absolutely!

Good luck!!! I hope you can do it. Back when I was a sophmore in high school I gave up soda for my volleyball and softball team, I went 5 years without soda, and now only have it everyonce in a while, usually when I have a horrible headache... YOU CAN DO IT DANELLE!!!

Hi Danelle,

I'm contacting you again. Please forgive me for the former post. It was totally unwarranted and I regret it.

Looks like you're just a few miles from me! I want to wish you much luck with your weight loss. I also belong to 24 Hour Fitness and I am trying to get back to my high school weight (about 30 pounds over at this time). It's VERY hard to do later in life, believe me! I will be 70 years old in 2009, but still (relatively) healthy and active.

My son is a Mormon, too. He and our two beautiful grandsons live in the Salt Lake City area. We just saw them a couple of months ago in Las Vegas. Nicholas and Tyler are two beautiful children and we love them very much. We took a lot of photos in and around LV and they are at my website.

Anyway, I hope we are both successful in our diet goals. Your family photo is quite beautiful. In the future, I will respect your feelings on controversial issues.

Peace, love and happiness,
