Thanks a Latte!

I just did a little math session and realized that I spend around 100.00 dollars a month on lattes. That is 1,200 a year! That is slightly out of hand. I have done the math before but I was making lots more money and always just said "it's my one vice!" as if that was supposed to make it ok. Well, I just ordered a new book called "The Vice Busting Diet" and the main thing it talks about is how having a vice doesn't make it ok. It's still just a bad excuse to do something. I just finished a latte I bought today and sadly me and the latte kind of had a moment. Haha!

I have gone to a coffee shop everyday for YEARS. I mean at least since the yearly 2000's. It's been my thing. I'm the coffee shop girl. I do love reading at coffee shop's and hanging out in them...but I'm thinking maybe it's time to cut back :) I'm not delusional enough to think this is gonna be easy...I'm mean I'm writing a blog about it. Obviously I'm gonna miss my lattes but I had to tell myself people quit doing drugs, or quit smoking...I'm pretty sure I can handle quitting lattes!

It has really helped to be able to share this journey I'm on and so I figure that I should share this goal as well. If I'm going to make a lifestyle change then drinking a latte everyday was going to have to change eventually...it might as well start now. So I apologize if I become really grumpy and lame due to the lack of caffeine...but I'm sure once the initial withdrawal is gone I'll be better :)
