Giving Up Coca Cola

Now that Lent's over, I've decided to give up eating certain foods or drinking certain drinks until after I'm married in August 2008. I know I'm a little late with the whole sacrificing for Catholicism ordeal, but I think it's best that I make little changes in my life in order to lead a healthier, less-heavy life.

Every couple of weeks, I will post a new item to give up. I will likely be very specific with the foods and drinks, since there will be lots to give up in a span of sixteen months. So here's number one:

Starting today, April 10, 2007, I will no longer consume Coca Cola. Yes, that is the actual brand/drink that I'm giving up. I haven't given up Pepsi or even Cherry Cola. Coca Cola is my soda of choice here at work and, therefore, I can no longer drink it. Pepsi will be an occasional drink at the in-laws and Cherry Coke is the drink of choice (for now) at theaters.

Stay tuned for my next post... I'm thinking some kinda of thinly sliced potato deep fried in a vat of oil...
