Well...I went from about a 12-pack of soda a day to 0 a day...cold turkey, coming up on 2 years...in the next week I believe. Haven't had any soda since. Besides the weight loss, it also REALLY helps acne. Agreed. I used to be a hardcore Mountain Dew addict and now I can't even look at the stuff. I also used to be a Taco Bell addict and I know if I ever even thought of eating there again that I'd have to have Dew with my food. Oh, ye of much temptation... |

Mountain Dew was good. But my all-time favorite drink was Fanta orange. OMG I could not get away from the stuff, it was just insanely good. Oh how I miss that drink...or not, water and juice and stuff is good. Gotta love Gatorade.

I quit drinking soda about 3 months ago and dropped 10 pounds pretty quickly with that change. Then I started playing DDR, then I changed my diet. It catalyzed me to realize how good it felt not to be fat. I've now lost 35 pounds. Would like to lose about 15 more, just a matter of time.

It is better than regular Dr. Pepper, but at the same time, and type of soda is bad for you, regular, diet, or that low carb (or w/e) stuff. Best bet is to find a healthy drink that you like, even if it is making your own juice, or drinks of that nature with a juicer... Whats wrong with Diet pop? Aspartame poisoning is nonsense, other then that I see nothing wrong with a diet soda from time to time. |

I've been drinking a lot of Diet Pepsi... well I mean not a lot, but no Regular cola... and it's been helping. All I need is a lot of water, though...

Aspartame poisoning is nonsense, other then that I see nothing wrong with a diet soda from time to time. Nothing wrong with it, per se, but it's not as good for you as water. Caffeine is still a dieuretic, and it's still addictive. There's still chemicals in Diet pop that aren't exactly natural. I still drink diet pop, but I'm under no illusion that it's the best stuff to be drinking. |

I have also joined the crusade of no coke or soda. I usually have 1 coke zero/nothing in the morning to wake me up (because I can't stand coffee). Alot of resturants are offering Sprite Zero now in their selections so now if I go out I get a sprite zero and a water (because i drink like a camel).

I know. It's really weird, because coffee to me smells fantastic, I just don't like the taste. I do however like Irish coffee, but I think I would have to go to meetings if I started my morning off with a cup or two of that.

I didn't get my coffee this morning and then I had to go to a meeting and I kept nodding off into sleep and snapping my neck back up. I thought my boss was going to kill me.
