I started drinking my calories, and now I don't know how to stop.

Ugh. I used to be really vigilant about drinking- for my weight loss goals, I had stopped drinking alcohol and beverages outside of seltzer and milk for my cereal. Never liked soda, really tried to avoid things with added sugar. Then when I was moving, a friend gave me a coconut water and I was really pleased, so I bought more.

A few in the fridge turned into a case at a time, especially during quarantine. I would find that it made it so much easier to stay hydrated and was bolstered by cursory research that suggested that it was not only good, it was *good for me*.

I am probably 200-600 calories a day over my caloric threshold as a result. I stopped counting calories per my doctor's recommendation (past ED) but am so embarrassed every time I have a coconut water. I've never really had trigger foods or drinks before that have made me feel like this, but I feel embarrassed and frustrated with myself.

How do I stop?
