My resting heart rate went down by at least 10 points with a few weeks of stopping. Amazing!
That is amazing. I noticed pretty quickly on quitting that weight loss was easier, my blood pressure stayed normal, I slept better and I rarely got sick.
I did lose weight my first month but I’ve gained it back and a few more. 😭 I think my soda habit is worse than ever. They just put a new refrigerator with a water dispenser on my floor at work and I’m planning to drink more water once it’s hooked up. Right now the water machine is downstairs and a 1/4 mile round trip into the middle of the building. Too much work.
I went through a little of a sugar and dessert phase here and there. Treat myself for not drinking. It’s been five years now so not only do I have no desires or cravings to drink, the thought actually repulses me. So it’s a little easier to focus on other health habits. I go through two bottles of SodaStream a day, though. 😀
