buh bye January.....Hello February

I love diet coke. And I love wine. That being said...This month for the theme Detox, I chose to give my liver and body a break from Alcohol and Caffeine.
I thought about Diet Coke alot at first – the building I work in provides FREE SODA. But I didn’t drink it. Instead I took up Seltzer and take it upon myself to make decaf coffee in the morning.
I thought about swinging by the liquor store every night and picking up a bottle of wine. But I didn’t. Instead of having a drink every night…I chose to wait and drink on special occasions.

Why didn't I? Because of this blog and each and everyone of you on here. I felt like I could let myself down, who would know? But I couldn't let you all down! I was accountable. I focused on NOT DOING it and you know what? I feel better! I don't feel run down or hungover! I feel like I get more done at work and now having a drink on special occasions is fun and something to look forward to...some things I learned about myself this month:

1. Seltzer is good
2. I don’t like decaf diet coke :-(
3. Watching TV without wine is just as pleasurable as watching it with a bottle.

I am looking forward to February - love. It can mean so many different things and can be displayed in so many different ways. I know what my goal will be and can't wait to share it!
