Here's the reason I can't quit soda (though I haven't had one in about 2 weeks.) This stack is just 5 steps outside my office door. It's unavoidable since I have to pass it on the way to the copy and fax room 95 times a day. And the fridge is stuffed with more soda.

It's killing me! I'm sipping my stupid low-sodium broth with my back up diet ice tea, but I want 9 cans of soda!

We only have 9 employees in this office, and several are part time. The attorneys are usually in court, so it's just me and those sodas. It's torture. Add that to Erin making pizza and heaping, steaming plates of eggrolls and french toast sausage sandwiches at 8:30 a.m. and you can probably appreciate why I was slugging down those sodas! FREE, mass quantities. Evil.

Broth tastes like warm liver juice. Can't I have just one (pallet) of soda?

Just remember you are defeating the whole purpose of the band if you drink the soda's. The carbonation in the soda's cause the stomach to expand, even if you do not a band, it will expand your stomach. I turned away from the soda's over two years now...and I's still alive. YOU CAN DO IT!
