Pro Tip: If you're sending money, especially a large amount to a company, make sure to contact said company to confirm their wire info, and not just go to the bank, and allow them to send the money to an account you don't know is associated with the company.
You would think that is common sense. (no, I'm not the one who sent the money)

Great. I think we're just over 3 weeks now with none. No alcohol in that time either. Just water, protein shakes, G2 gatorade and coffee and some juice.
The first two weeks were fairly easy. The third week was easily the toughest. I felt sluggish and was craving it. Hopefully now that I'm past that, I'll be in the clear.

I think common belief is that it takes roughly a month of something for you to get used to it and for it to become normal routine.
Though that might be more for going to the gym (i.e if you can do it for a month it's easy from that point) and not so much the body reacting to something.

I can see how something like pop would have a similar adjustment period because after a couple of weeks the body would crave the excess sugar. Same with a diet shift.
It’s still wild to me how we used to eat enough sugar waaaaaay back several generations over where sugar was looked at as nutritious because it was so rare and never overdone, and now it’s demonized because people can’t control themselves.
It's all about moderation.
Like, I'm committed to the end of the year to have 0 pop, and I will likely continue that, but if I'm getting together with a bunch of people, I won't be afraid to have a rye and coke or two.

Yeah, I will never drink it casually.
I drink once in a blue moon, and even then, I usually drink beer, but sometimes if I'm with my buddies from back in my hometown, we drink whiskey, so I'm not gonna be afraid to have a mixed drink in that setting.

Ice hockey is a game. Anaheim vs San Jose is a match.
A game is the sport that you play.
A match is two teams/players picked to compete against each other.
But in reality there's no difference. You can use them interchangeably most of the time without confusion or any loss of meaning. There's no convention for it that I'm aware of.
I think the only place it matters is in sports where you don't call them games. Combat sports like boxing or wrestling are always matches, and you also don't 'play boxing'. Not sure if there other non-combat sports that are like that.

i rather learn than wondering what i say wrong.
the next post did a good job at explaining and thats something i care.
i still make many mistakes, because i just translate it in my head. i just clearly remember "start match" when playing sports video games. so to me its a match.... cuz thats how i learned it. but if its game i will say game.
