I've been drinking a lot of coke (classic) for several years now.<br />I don't plan os stopping anytime soon (perhaps drink less).<br />So far I'm not dead from it. If sh** happens, I will warn all you guys and everyone else I can. ^^<br />So if I grow cancer or something it's most likely coke. muhuhu. Don't think I'd make it to the news though. It's like fighting mcdonalds. And I won't blame the company. I could have stopped and didn't if that were to happen.luizhdealmeidahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06770997657129136196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6375734216588111141.post-70701092561601047872010-02-19T15:11:25.334-08:002010-02-19T15:11:25.334-08:00Tink, I am always suspicious at claims like that. ...Tink, I am always suspicious at claims like that.

I haven't had a Coke in 2 months now. But now that my race is over I can afford to be lazy. The thing is... I lost 12 pounds during training, and going back to beer and soda would put that all back on in just a matter of a couple weeks. So I'm just going to save them for rare "special" occasion. Maybe like birthdays and holidays and what not.<br /><br />I also choose to walk to work. That helps me burn extra calories when I don't have the motivation to excessive. And if your job doesn't allow a leisurely stroll, I highly recommend you find the time to fit one in. It also gives you time to think, or listen to music, or just breathe deeply and enjoy life. My wife and I love to take walks together too, and chat and laugh, and just spend time in each others company... and before you know it the calories just melt off.Tristan Vickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05348780254008374268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6375734216588111141.post-89809884224816278142010-02-17T22:03:25.092-08:002010-02-17T22:03:25.092-08:00Feeno- I really hope that you are able to lose the...Feeno- I really hope that you are able to lose the weight. Make a goal, and stick with it. Begin exercising slowly. You need to do it for your family. Last I heard, obesity was now killing more people than cigarettes.<br /><br />http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/2004-03-09-obesity_x.htm<br /><br />Beer, soda, bread... Give it all up.

Just tell me not to drink coke. Although I did stay over a month without any classic coke once. Ah, if drinking coke is my addiction I think I'm okay. Better than beer or cigarets.

I hadnt seen him in awhile and he told me he quit tobacco 3 years earlier which prompted me to quit last July as well. (I was also smoking cigerettes in the night). I gave up both and quickly gained 25 lbs. <br /><br />I plateaued at my 25 lb weight gain and am now starting to lose a couple of lbs. Hopefully I can drop a few more. Whatever the case may be, I'm not going back to tobacco. I'll fight the weight gain instead.J Curtishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12746127431922685446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6375734216588111141.post-21664907218140495142010-02-17T13:53:32.724-08:002010-02-17T13:53:32.724-08:00A wonderful example of quitting something you were...A wonderful example of quitting something you were better off without in the first place, feeno.

When...Today feeno weighed in at a whopping 274 lbs.<br />When this 40 days is over with, I will be below 250lbs.? That's my goal anyhow. <br /><br />When I was 16 years old not many things interested me. Kinda like now. But I did like being with my friends, trying to impress the ladies and dipping my Copenhagen. I still like being with my friends. Still like trying to impress the ladies, but I gave up my Copenhagen about 10 years ago for Lent. <br /><br />I was having a tough day at work. I was laying Marble in a bathroom. The walls, floors, and the counter-top. Every piece had to be cut. There were designs and inlays and all sorts of difficult problems to overcome. And the guy I was working for was being a real hard-ass and being very picky. So as I got more and more frustrated I smashed some marble with my fist and kinda disrespected God with some words I said. It was "Fat Tuesday" and the next day was gonna start Lent. So I asked God to forgive me of my attitude and told Him I'd give up dipping my beloved snuff for the next 40 days. But I think it was the Holy Spirit that prompted me to tell God I'd give it up forever. that day I had my last dip.<br /><br />I wish I wouldn't have made that deal with God, but I did and will live with it. I still wake up from dreaming about dipping. I really loved it and still miss it after all these years.<br /><br />I'm very careful how I talk to God now. And I will avoid making any more deals with Him. I really don't want to give up beer. I think I will for the next 40 days tho.<br /><br />Thanks, feenofeenohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07483769284197614547noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6375734216588111141.post-63847042921419503942010-02-17T09:40:01.507-08:002010-02-17T09:40:01.507-08:00I have nothing left to give up.
