Avoided drinking Cola at the movies.


Posted by Swati S.

I went to the movies recently, and I am very proud to say that I did not give in to the temptation (believe me, it was tough) to have Coke with my popcorn. How did it happen? Well, I just got some popcorn and told myself that I will get the Coke during the interval. At the interval, I drank some water and told myself to wait and get the Coke during the second half. Finally, the movie got over and I thought- since I have come this far, why ruin a good thing?

It is amazing to me how bad this drink is for people, yet how hard it is to stop drinking it. My boyfriend is a total addict. I can barely have a sip without getting a headache, so hopefully one day you'll get to that point. The problem is, nobody is in the market to help you at the movies. The other day, someone said, "Why not switch to a large for 50 cents more" and boyfriend was like, Okay. He was stunned at the amount of soda he was given. It was like a two liter. Avoid it like the plague! Reward yourself when you have victories like these!
Maybe someone should do a research on why people like it so much. I think globally - if there is one thing that unites all people across different countries - it's probably this drink - it;s really amazing.
