One key to weight loss...

So, I have noticed that a really big key to weight loss is drinking a lot of water.  That really isn't a myth.  I have been drinking 64 oz. of water a day since I started my diet and it has helped so much.  I think, it is hard to do for some people like myself, who are used to drinking sweet tea and soda pop all the time.  I have always filled my body with a lot of toxic drinks, especially considering I used to be a drinker (of the alcoholic variety), and I guess you just enjoy it so much and get so used to it, you really don't realize how bad it is for your body, to fill it with those sort of things.  Since I have been drinking all of this water and no soda, sugar-filled juices or beverages, and no alcohol whatsoever (been sober for almost a year!!!), the once or twice I have sipped a coke this passed week when my husband was drinking some, I realized I no longer had a desire for it! 

It is like my body is shut down to those sorts of things now that I am on the right track.  You can get almost a hangover ish type of feeling from just a sip of soda when you've been drinking just water for a few days.
