No coffee, no soft drinks, no tea. During this year, I’m attempting to cut out all unnecessary caffeine, acidity, and high fructose corn syrup. Though caffeine is a stimulant and good for a burst of energy, I would like to avoid the negative side of it. Caffeine is a diuretic, pulls water from your cells, and increases the acid in your body which is the opposite of what I’m trying to accomplish in training. An acidic body causes it’s own set of problems, and high fructose corn syrup is, well… pretty much the worst stuff on earth.
Staying away from WAWA hazelnut coffee with hazelnut creamer is going to be hard (because it is delicious!). So, until November 21, 2011…No coffee, no soft drinks, no tea, turkey!
I’m glad that you didn’t put wine on the list. Love your website! GO BABY GO!
