    Even with the weight and calorie issue aside, that must be absolutely awful for your teeth! I remember seeing a documentary with these kids with "Mountain Dew mouth". Maybe Googling that will help you quit.

    I drink a dark soda every day, as well as several cups of coffee, and actually I was worried about it staining my teeth but at my last dental appointment she said I was doing a good job brushing and keeping my teeth from staining. The whitening toothpastes work pretty good (optic white and crest 3D white or whatever) I also brush my teeth after lunch, so 3x a day.

    I am a fellow Dr. Pepper addict. I REALLY cut down after I started logging all of my food here. It does help. I am down to one 12 oz bottle per day. That little 12 oz bottle has 40 carbs and I'm not supposed to have more than 100 per day.....that is crazy. You can do it!

    Diet Dr Pepper doesn't taste bad. The switch should be easy. Diet Dr Pepper and Diet A&W are so close to the full calorie versions, you'll probably hardly notice. They are the only ones I can drink.

    A friend of mine just found small packets which you can add to water to make it taste like DP, but way healthier. Maybe try looking for something like that? Good luck!

    Wait, what? Packets that make your water taste like Dr Pepper? Including carbonation?

    Yes, my husband got the packets! It tastes like flat diet pepper!

    I just...no :noway: I mean, if it works for him that's great, but I'm going with the nope shirt on this one.

    I might have to try the Dr. Pepper packets. That sounds totally weird...but interesting. I don't mind it being flat at all. I see they sell them at Amazon. Edit: Never mind, they have aspartame.

    @CindyJNC1963 Can you post the link. I tried to find them on Amazon but a search only comes up with Crush which is owned by Dr. Pepper/7-UP company.

    What’s wrong with aspartame?

    It gives me headaches. I try to avoid it if possible.
