-- Any of you kicked the soda drinking habit?
Pages (3): « 1 2 [3]

The only sodas i drink mostly are DEW and sprite... Lately ive been drinking water and apple juice because my throat was burning like hell and I had trouble swallowing. I even had off and on hiccups. It got so bad... i had to go to the emergency room

everything taste different to different people.

I went through a period of not drinking soda for about 2 months. It was really really hard to kick actually. Every time I would go out to eat I had to force myself to just get water instead of a soda. Anyway, I lost about 5-6 pounds (with minimal exercise, and slight dieting) and I think it's mostly due to not drinking soda. However, I've since fallen off the wagon. I keep telling myself I'll stop drinking soda again to drop some pounds...but alas, soda's grip on me is too strong

huge water drinker here myself....nothing beats a crisp ice cold cup of water...sometimes i throw lemon in for good measure!

Hehe, this is funny. A few years ago I decided to stop drinking (or at least drink less) soda's like Cola and Fanta, and I don't even know why, really. Now, I rarely drink that stuff, which is really weird when you think about it because back in the day when I was in high school, and I used to get home all thirsty, the first thing I'd do was quench my thirst with a glass of coke.

I have this friend who still drinks a lot of Coke on a weekly basis, but I'm glad I quit. It's so much healthier, for your teeth, your body and your skin. Now all I drink is water, and occasionally this nice fruity drink which you probably don't know, but here it's called 'Taksi' and also occasionally a nice glass of chocolate milk. Ow yeah, and a few beers in the weekend.

The cool thing about it, is that my body is totally not used to caffeine anymore, so it actually really helps me when I drink a can of Red Bull now!! Unbelievable. And I thought it was all bullshit.

cut it out of my daily routine about 6 months ago. it just makes me feel bloated. like ill grab a gingerale from time to time but for the most part, fruit juice ftw

I did that early this year and it worked.
I just decided that if it was no good for me then I should stop. And I mean, when your a kid, you get into the mindset of wanting sweet things, but since I have lost my sweet tooth altogether and never have chocolate, biscuits or anything, I made the change.
Plus, after leaving school I've realised that if its a hot day and your working outside water is the BEST thirst quencher ever, I mean, its obvious it is but damn I love a cool glass of water.

I use to love soda now... I tone it down with the high fructose corn syrup. People say the Japanese have bland tasting food but it's no wonder they are the longest living people in the world because of their diet.

i very rarely drink it. maybe once in a while with pizza or something...i drink one cup of coffee in the morning, water all day (about 3 big cups) and then wine at night along with more water.

I rarely drink soda anymore - only if its the only thing i can find and im really thirsty. Otherwise, I find Pepsi and Coke nasty... Sprite is the only soda I can actually drink.

At most one per day, and only with a meal.

I have cut both regular and diet soda out of my diet for a few years, save for when I feel like indulging. Can't say I miss them.

Originally posted by hadi ****** i usually drink juice or water. i drink soda sometimes, but not everyday. when my older brother was living in the college dorms, he would drink soda with every meal (not sure how many cups) but he brushes his teeth too and when he went to the dentist he had 13 cavities on 11 teeth. fucks up your teeth. anyways, icant have too much soda anymore because it makes my stomach hurt and my teeth feel funny.

I probably drink the most soda out of all of you, and I've only gotten 1 cavity about 10 years ago.

I also have had barely any cavities in all these years that I drank soda. Once I get past the one month stage, I think I'll only drink soda once in awhile, with meals, etc.
I love drinking water, but I can't drink alot during the day because of my job, but on the weekends I make up for it.

Yeah, I agree with that. I used to drink pretty much nothing but soda and I've never had a cavity.
