How to Break the Mountain Dew Addiction – Part III
I have written two posts (part one here & part two here) regarding this topic already and I just thought about a couple of things and wanted to add to the series. Breaking the addiction to Mountain Dew is NOT easy, by any means. I have gone without it for a couple of days and find the caffine headache hard enough to handle.
The other day, I was putting a lemon wedge into my water bottle before going on a walk. We all know that it is refreshing to taste that bit of lemon in your water. As soon as I took the first full drink of the water, I felt like it didn’t taste that different from Mountain Dew.
I know that Mountain Dew is a combination of a lot of different things. but I thought I would take that idea and put a shot of lemon juice or two right into a Mountain Dew bottle that has water in it. I started to think that it was more mental than anything else. The Mountain Dew bottle in my hand was like a straw in the mouth of someone trying to quit smoking.
At first, I would even try to skip Mountain Dew 100%, but maybe slide the water bottle idea in for every other soda you drink. You will see the difference immediately and realize that you are actually not craving the Mountain Dew as much. Plus it doesn’t hurt to have more liquids in your body other than soda.
Let me know how it goes for you, comment below. If you know anyone else that might benefit from this post, go ahead and send it to them via Twitter.
