Mountain Dew was my Addiction

I Have never Understood addiction. How do you risk your family over alcohol, Smoking or Gambling?

Judging these people for years, looking down on them. How can they let something control their life?  I have not had a beer since the 1st taste at the age 12. I Left my last chance to play college football because I would not use steroids. I have never used and illegal drug.

That being said I was letting things control me. I had two more teeth pulled today: all due to my addiction of Mountain Dew.  Last year at this time I was tipping the scale at 350 plus pounds. I avoided the scale for most of the 1st three month of 2011.

There was an odd circle happening in my life: I was putting myself on the back for not drinking, smoking or doing drugs. However I was rewarding myself with Mountain Dew. Rather than loading a gun I was loading a shotgun. Either way I was pulling the trigger and it caused me to be addicted and controlled by a Drug.

I knew soad was not good for me, but it always made the pain go away. Never did I think that soda would cause me to have no teeth before 45 years of age. I am embarrassed by my actions and filled with regret.

I have not had a drink of Mountain Dew in over four years. With my regret I still crave it even with the pain it has called me over the years.
