Ten days ago, I wrote:

I barely have a craving for soda anymore, and when I do, my immediate reaction is, Blech, then I’d lose my streak. 

Me, This Blog Post.

But today, I am having some deep cravings for Caffeine Free Diet Coke. And the thought of losing my “days without soda” streak is not very compelling. Instead, I keep thinking about how delicious a bubbly soda would taste, streak be damned.

Nathan still drinks soda but he goes for the full caffeinated experience. I do not covet his stash of diet soda because I know caffeine makes me crazy. But yesterday he was drinking Caffeine Free Diet Coke because he accidentally grabbed a bottle of it at the store, and oh, I wanted to tear that bottle from his arms and guzzle it down.

It feels like my inner devil is shouting for soda and my inner angel is secretly craving it as well.

Hopefully, if I can hang on for a few more days, these cravings will pass. Come on, inner angel! Please! Kick that devil in the ass and get excited about the 2021 Soda Fast!

I will report back either way.

p.s. Pray for me.
