I used to crave twinkies, ding dongs, reese's pieces...since I have been on NS for about two weeks now and I am proud to say that I have not had one of those since I started. However I now have a new craving, diet soda.

I saw that diet soda was one of the things that not only could we drink, but we could drink in unlimited amounts. I decided to have a diet soda in the afternoon to tide me over between my afternoon snack and dinner. I've been good and kept it to one but I now look forward to my diet soda, the sweet sweet almost sugar but not quite taste.

The bubbles tickle my throat, teasing me with the notion that what I am drinking is bad (because it's carbonated) but that it really isn't. It truly is a wonderful thing.
