It is all gone.

I polished off the rest of the licorice today.
My jaw is a little sore.
One should not eat that much licorice in that short of time.
Does not sit well with the tummy.
On a much happier note.
I just found out two of my friends from high school live in the same city I work in. It is very exciting, I haven't talked to them in 25 years. We are getting together for dinner in a couple of weeks and I can't wait.
There were 7 of us that hung out together, but we all went to separate colleges and lost touch after a couple of years. I stink at keeping in touch. I am sure all my newly acquired friends on facebook will ditch me when I can't keep up the pace.

27

That is the number of times I thought about Diet Coke today.  

Yes, I am Diet Coke obsessed.  

Saturday I had my last Diet Coke. 

I made it worth my while.  EB stopped at the gas station and got me a 44 oz fountain Diet Coke. 

I really want one. I do, I do, I do.

To make me feel better about not having a diet coke, I ate nearly a pound of Red Vines.  I am sure calorie wise that was about even.   Let's see 10 servings at 140 calories per serving. Yep same as a Diet Coke.   Goes back to that whole calories in/calories out thing.  

Plus when I got home I ate 3 Thin Mint cookies and couple of servings of potato chips.  Really good potato chips.  They are all natural and only 1 gram of saturated fat.  See, I can justify anything. 

BTW, the only reason I gave up Diet Coke was because I was tired of being a hypocrite.  I tell the kids they can't have pop because it is so bad for them, yet I drink it all the time.  So I quit.

I miss the burn!!!!!!
