Question – Which of the following doesn't belong?

Root beer float

Diet Coke

Bottled Water

Iced Tea

Margarita

Pepsi

Orange juice

 

Answer – If you are a nicotine addict, a margarita should never be in your hand/mouth. Alcohol is a proven quit killer! Do you know how many alcoholic drinks it will take before that voice in your head that “just one won't hurt” starts to sound reasonable? If not, please don't chance it!

How about a fresh limeade? In this 90 degree weather it still sounds great!

I, like Annb am not a real alcohol drinker.  I might drink on my birthday if he girls at work want to hang out and just maybe on New Year's Eve.  On those occasions I am not tempted to smoke but I do need to have my bed close by. I'm such a whimp 🙂

About the Author
I smoked until a vascular surgeon informed me of the damage I had done to myself by doing so. I quit 11 years ago, and I can swim laps virtually FOREVER now, walk most other days 40 minutes to an hour and a half. What a difference quitting has made in my life! I strive to help others find this wonderful freedom from addiction, too.
