Hi, My name is Leah and I'm an addict {part three}

Well, it's been three whole months since I first admitted my problem.  In that time I have done little to help myself with this addiction.  I just don't know what to do.  I honestly haven't been able to cut myself off cold turkey.  I am in denial that it's a problem at this point.  My goal for this month is to get down to two dr peppers a day.  This is going to be hard for me as I am back up to 4-5 a day. 
DID YOU KNOW?   One 12 ounce can of Dr Pepper contains approximately 40 mg. of caffeine.
