So here we are, just about a quarter of the way through February, and I have not touched a drop of soda yet. It's definitely been tough, and although I still get gobs of caffeine (oh how I love it) through coffee, I've had some strong jonsings for sweet sweet carbonated sugar water. Overall though it's been going well, and really all I drink now is water, coffee and some beer; I had a some cran-rasberry juice on Tuesday and I think that was the first thing to break the big three's stranglehold.
One thing that was me pretty excited is the fact I went running for the first time on Tuesday since January ended, and I was able to do two miles straight at under eleven minutes per mile. I really did just need a couple days to rebuild muscles and now I'm pushing out the best times I've had in quite a while.
In an amusing quirk, I was planning on doing push-ups every day in March, but a buddy on Facebook posted up looking for people to do the 100 Push-Up Challenge with him, so I'm getting a bit of an early start on my March stuff. Three days a week now I'm doing increasing sets of push-ups, with the eventual goal of being able to do one hundred in a row. Day two was completed yesterday, and it was easier than day one, so.... yay!
