WLR 1: Cut Out Sodas

It will be a couple of weeks before I can get in to see my endocrinologist and the dietician.  I want to speak with both of them before mapping out any major diet changes, but I wanted to go ahead and make my first "Whole Life Resolution."  So, I figured one thing that everyone could benefit from cutting out is sodas. Voila! My first resolution.  I will cut out sodas.  At one point I never had soda, but lately it seems I drink 1-2 servings a day! Eww.  I'll still allow myself to have milk, juice and even my half sweet/unsweet tea; like I said in the intro, baby steps.  I have planned on making two sets of resolutions every week; one for diet and one for exercise, but being my first week I didn't want to be overwhelmed (and we also have a vacation scheduled for this weekend!).  Well, there it is - my first resolution.  I set it in place about 3 days ago, and so far, so good.  I know that since I still have other drink options it is easy, but it's a conscious decision I have to make not to drink them, so it's still a lifestyle change for me.
