You have come so far already Nikki! Don't let it go backward! On the otherhand, you don't want to deprive yourself either. If you have to have the poppers, have someone near you that you can share them with.

Good Job! This has to be hard. I don't drink too much soda, I don't even buy it unless it is for something special. Keep up the good work and your positive attitude and you will meet your goal!
