Day 24--My New Friend

So as I have previously stated before in some of my other blog posts, I am trying to lose some weight...alot of weight. One of my biggest obstacles that I have faced is cutting out my soda intake. Oh my....it was soooo hard. I tried to stop drinking them cold turkey...well that one failed. So I decided to limit myself to one a day. Then it eventually died down to about one a week until I wasn't drinking sodas at all. Well, I went to GA for the holidays and back pedaled a bit. I started drinking sodas again along with my water. I hated myself for that. Even though I gained no weight from it, I was so dissapointed in myself for "falling off the wagon". Well, I have a new friend. This pretty pink water bottle that holds 24 ozs of water. I fill it up in the morning and continue filling it up throughout the day until I go to bed. By the end of the day, I have consumed about 4 to 5 full bottles of water. I take this thing everywhere I go. To the gym, to the store, to church, to soccer practice and even all over the house with me. I know it sounds crazy, but I feel like if I have it with me and I am constantly drinking the water out of it that I won't go for a soda or that crazy bad food. Here's to my new friend.......
