I'm about to go all Bridget Jones on you people

Today....actually right now as I type this, I'm having my last Dr. Pepper for a while. I'm so sad. I'm also tired of being so dependent on them...and having them control my thoughts and my days. There are worse things in this world, but to me Dr. Pepper is pretty bad because I let myself be consumed by thoughts of having one. I want one for breakfast, lunch and dinner, while I'm watching my favorite television programs, on road trips, ballgames, while eating out you name it. I don't always allow myself to have one. To be quite honest on most days I'm pretty good and have no more than 2...but then there are days where I'll have 4. I know a few people who only drink soda ALL day long. This is crazy to me. I think Dr. Pepper is so bad for me just because what purpose does it have besides bring me a few moments of joy? It has no other purpose. There is nothing nutritional about it. Nothing. So this time I will give it an honest try.
