Caffeine Update

Going four months now without caffeine in my diet and yes I have had some pretty dredging, dragging days without a Coke. Two other positives though, the BP remains down and I am losing weight. I understand Diet Cokes or any diet drinks mess up your body into thinking it needs to eat more. My belt now needs to be pulled one more hole tight to keep my trousers in place.

RA and I started back at the gym this week and my back is feeling so much better. 45 minutes at Golds, 20 minutes on the exercise machines and 25 minutes on the bike and I am happy again. Exercise and stretching is a miracle cure for lower back pain.
