I...what?!

Any normal morning for me begins with a trip to the gas station and a MEGA Monster Energy drink, and usually a pack of cigarettes (if I'm out). My normal diet consists of whatever junk food I can lay my hands on and sometimes skipping meals because I'm too busy to stop whatever I'm doing to eat.

Therapist Lady told me to cut out the caffine. NOW. What?! Okay, so apparently these anxiety attacks I'm having are being caused by the 100+ ounces of caffeine I'm consuming daily. The energy drinks are "HORRIBLE!" for me and it's hurting my body "in the long run".

Me: "Like smoking?"
Therapist Lady: "Okay, that's a totally different rant entirely, but yes. Quit"

She knew that it would be easier to get me to quit Pepsi's and energy drinks quicker than the nicotine. I, however, have still had a hard time adjusting to this. So, I'm proud to say that I have only had 1 caffeinated beverage today. A 20 ounce coke. I had it at the latter part of my day.

I love this picture (minus the bit about weed). It will suit me one day when I'm totally off caffeine and dying for a frappacino from Starbucks.

As far as my diet, or lack thereof, is concerned: We'll take baby steps.

Okay, I feel like a total dork. Apparently I got my first award and I had no idea what to do with it. After doing just a few minutes of quick research I quickly learned that I won an award from
this lovely lady right here

First I would like to say that I feel a willing obligation to offer my support when I know someone needs it. Especially when I can relate to the person in some way. A strong way. I may not be able to give the person so many encouraging words, but I can let them know they aren't alone. So, thank you Lizz for this. You are a strong (and talanted, might I add) blogger that I've been fortunate enough to share moments with.
