    I was also about 7 years ago, most people are without realizing it. Just grab some water or something like crystal lite. Since I have stopped drinking caffeinated drinks I have never needed it again, it will be a struggle the first few weeks but you can do it.

    Coke zero is better tasting though.
    I haven't had any soda since Feb 26 2011! Trying to cut back on soda. I use to drink 3 cans every single day!

    I have quit drinking caffeinated soda several times. I will go months and months without, then I get hooked again. I never went back to drinking it like before, all day long, now I just usually have a small fountain filled with ice first. But lately I have had to have it every day, I'm so mad at myself for getting back into drinking it. I wish I could just stay away from it for good. I hate it, and there are so many side effects I deal with. It serves NO GOOD purpose for me. I often say I'd hate to see how I did with drugs, thank God I never did them. I work in the schools, (when I get called) so Spring break I'm going to try and quit cold turkey, since I havent been able to get a handle on it again. I get such a headache and get so weak and sluggish, that Spring break will be a good time for me to not be much available.

    Actually I use my Diet Coke as a Reward, If I drink my 64 ozs of water (plain) then I get to have a diet coke. I am not a fan of water but knowing Ill get one, helps get it down, LOL! Of course, in the last 2 weeks Ive only had 3 :frown:

    I am too, but did you guys know that the artificial sweetner used in diet sodas acts as a preservative to the fat around your waist/thighs? My aunts dietician friend told me that... I still can't give it up lol
