I did the same thing a dozen years or so ago. Now whenever I accidentally take a sip out of the wrong glass, I nearly choke on it!
Water and unsweetened tea for me!

I haven't drank them in years, we're talking 30 to 40 years. Sodas are not good for you and are part of todays overweight problem. It is my belief that diet sodas are the worst of the lot and cause more problems than the regular ones. There is a LOT to the saying "Why is it you only see fat people drinking diet drinks?" I believe they cause you to gain weight, not loose it.
People do not realize the calories that they DRINK.. I only do water, coffee (unsweetened) and tea, sometimes sweet, sometimes unsweetened (but only 1 galss a day of the tea and not every day)
Remember this, the more sugar you take in, the more you crave.

I drink Coke and most all sodas, and Sweet Tea, and i am actually quite a bit underweight.
I basically have gotten away from all sodas. I discovered that I really just like the fizzy part of it, so I get seltzer water and tonic water.
The seltzer water I buy is naturally flavored, and is not the diet stuff, but it's still 0 calories. I'm allergic to all those sugar substitutes (migraines that are horrendous), so no diet anything actually.
I have been drinking some Powerade recently. It was on sale 10 bottles for $10. I figure if I don't make them a habit, it will be ok.
Other than that, I do drink Arizona's Sweet Tea, and then other unsweetened tea. I am not a coffee drinker. In the winter I do love my teas, chai and my hot cocoa at work, lol. My office and library are FREEZING, even now.
Congrats to all of you.
I am so addicted to pepsi.
Thanks so much Ashley for the siggy!

I’m currently trying to cut back on anything that has excessive sugar in, like Coke, fruit juice in excess, just little things.
Currently it’s working, but I’m not giving Coke up completely.
thank you so much for the sig ellie! (whisk_luva)

Reggie - you are taking in a LOT of caffeine, and it's a diuretic! Wouldn't surprise me if you are dehydrated. About 70% of North Americans are, and don't even know it.
Plus, all the caffeine can artificially raise your metabolism, as it's a stimulant. Maybe try easing down to very little caffeine, as this can really mess up your health (for one, your heart would be beating faster than it really should be).
Look up 'caffeine' on Google and see what you find out.![]()

I do my best not to drink soda. I usually only drink soda when i'm at a restaurant and they dont have sweet tea. and at home I usually drink water
I used to drink Diet Coke all the time. I have one every once in a while if I dine out. But for the most part I now drink only water and one cup of coffee a day.
My best friend is hooked on Tab. She tried quitting but the headaches were horrible.
Did you know that if you scrub your tires with it, it gets them sparkling clean. Can you imagine what it does to your stomach???![]()

In May 2001, I woke up one day and grabbed my morning coke like always. EWWW! It tasted terrible, like acid. I poured it out and when I got to work I bought one from the machine, thinking mine at home had just gone sour. Nope, same reaction. After a half dozen "EWWW" reactions, I stopped trying. I did not drink soda (Coke!) for 7 months.
Good luck on your "no more coke" lifestyle. It sucked me back in... lol.
I keep thinking that maybe I will quit again.
I will miss you forever, my sweet Scooter Bug. You were my best friend. 9/21/1995 - 1/23/2010
