    I used to drink almost as many calories a day as I should have been consuming in total. I wasn't a huge soda lover so it wasn't too bad to cut that. What I ended up doing with juice is slowly adding more water to it. Just after a few weeks now I find it too sweet to drink without watering it down.

    I switched from pepsi to pepsi zero. The taste isn't bad my boyfriend describes it tasting like a flat pepsi.

    You might want to invest in a Soda Stream (around $70 for the starter kit). You can use them to add fizz to any kind of flavored water, and it's a great way to make your lemon water taste like a naughty soda. :) Oh, and unsweetened iced tea!

    Ok so I have a ton of weight to lose. My biggest downfall is all of the sugary drinks, sodas, juice, coffee drinks, etc.

    I KNOW I have to stop drinking them but it really is hard to stop. I used to drink diet, but with all of the scary stuff about aspartame I switched and now I'm hooked on the real stuff :p

    What do y'all drink?? Besides water ! I love water and get enough in, but I love having a soda or some juice with a meal / snack. No tea, ew I can't

    Try Lacroix sparkling water. It'll give you the fizziness. It's zero calories, zero sugar. there are many different flavors.

    I'm a total diet coke junkie myself and have tried to cut back simply because of how chemical heavy soda is. I still drinkit mind you, just not as much. I've taken up drinking soda water with lemon or lime added instead. The bubbles make me feel like I'm not Just drinking boring water. ;)
