I quit both Diet Mountain Dew AND meat on January 16th. I'm trying them both out for 30 days. The reason it was Jan 16th is because the meat part was meant as a New Year's Resolution but I had so much of it in my house, I decided to consume it rather than waste it. I did end up giving a few things away because I was really motivated to get started. The meat part is moral and the mountain dew was because of heartburn.
Good news is that the heartburn has lessened (still get it occasionally but not everyday like before), and cutting out meat isn't as hard as I thought it might be. It really isn't and I'm suprised. Granted it has only been about 20 days or so, but I'm still pretty proud. The weird thing is is that I've told my family about the pop, but not the meat. Maybe I'll confess after the 30 days is over because I'm pretty confident it's going to be permanent.
Oh one more thing. I went bowling about a week ago and I ordered a Diet Dew and some chips and didn't notice what I had done until I got halfway thru the pop! I wasn't too hard on myself because I honestly didn't do it on purpose. It kind of gave me a chuckle!
