I have successfully survived a week without soda. I love my Dr. Pepper, but I know to lose weight I cannot drink empty calories, I would much rather have food. I might drink a Dr. Pepper in a blue moon, but I feel great! Anyone else cut soda out of their diet? What difference did it make?

    Not completely cut out, but a big difference from 6 months ago. I used to drink 3 or 4 a day. Now I just keep a few on hand. It seems to make me want one more if I know I have none. Lol. So I just keep a few at a time. I drink them on special meals, such as burgers or pizza. I probably have about one, maybe 2 a month now.

    I drink diet soda so it doesn't affect my weight, but I decided actually this morning to cut it out for a week. It has nothing to do with the health myths that people spout about diet soda, and more to do with just making sure I can get rid of it without going nuts.

    Good for you! Congrats!

    I rarely drink soda anymore and my brother cut it out cold turkey 6 years ago and has never looked back. Keep it up! :smile:
