TaigaTrail+FollowWhat I Miss When I Quit SodaIt’s 2 p.m. and I’m staring at the fridge, thinking about the can of Coke I promised myself I wouldn’t touch. I’ve read the labels, counted the grams of sugar, poured out bottles in a burst of willpower that never lasts. I try water, seltzer, even those fake-sweet drinks that taste like regret. Nothing fizzes the way soda does. I tell myself it’s just a habit, but it feels like a craving that lives in my teeth, my tongue, my head. My wife suggests Fresca. I nod, but I know it’s not about the drink. It’s about wanting something to fill the space that soda leaves behind. #FoodGuilt #ControlIsExhausting #OneSipAtATime #Health #Diet71Share
