Diet Soda

I made it through today without any soft drinks at all. I usually have at least one a day, either at lunch or at dinner.

A few years ago I started to drink diet sodas instead of the regular ones, so that was marginally better: 1 calorie instead of 140 calories. However, the calories were still empty.

I decided, as an experiment, to avoid soft drinks for an entire week. Today was day one. I'll be bringing my Nalgene water container to lunch this week so I remember to skip soft drinks.
