Major milestone reached:.... 2 weeks without a Diet Soda......When I say major, trust me when I say I was a Coke Head..... and I dont mean the white stuff! I am shocked that I don't miss it more than I would have thought. I feel pretty good, don't feel so bloated everyday! After the first few days of dealing with headaches, after that its been smooth sailing.

soda is the devil! I heard that if you were a true soda drinker and if you quit then you will automatically lose 10 pounds. Keep up the good work!!!0

congrats that is a huge victory! :happy:0

CONGRATULATIONS!! I'm struggling with that myself. So far I'm down to 2 Diet Soda's a day. I know I should quit cold turkey, but I've tried that before and had killer headaches, so I'm trying to ween myself off. Congrats again!0

I wish you well on this endeavor. I gave up all soda for Lent and barely made it through.
I believe I've kept McDonald's in business with my frequent Diet Coke purchases!:laugh:
They sent out an investigative team to find out why the soda business took such a plunge
during that time. I've assured them that they can relax, I'm back!0 -
Good work!
Day 14 here with no soda. :glasses:0 -
How come Diet Soda is so bad?0
-
This is great! You will definitely feel better without it.0

That's awesome!! I know how hard it is to cut out soda...eek! What a great success!0
-
I would agree...... I had been losing 1-2 a week before that, but I have lost 5 lbs in 2 weeks..... SOLDsoda is the devil! I heard that if you were a true soda drinker and if you quit then you will automatically lose 10 pounds. Keep up the good work!!!0 -
I will be starting my "no diet soda" next week. I am not looking forward to it. When I'm having my tasty popcorn snack, water doesn't sound like a good mix. Is Perrier ok? I only drink the diet soda for the carbonation. I know Perrier is high in sodium but I am always under in that category and have really low blood pressure anyways. Hope the withdrawal headache doesn't last long.0

awesome!!!! That really is a great accomplishment for sure!!!!0
-
LOL regarding the person who posted about the beer!! hahaha0

it has fake sugar in it and that sweetener makes you crave sweets and makes you hungry. I heard that drinking regular soda is actually better for you.
I am no doctor or scientist but that is purely what I have heard.0 -
I will let someone else tell you all the bad things it does to the body, even though it has zero calories, it has all the bad chemicals.......Not saying I will stop completely forever, because there are certain foods I will want one with (going to the movies and having a big *kitten* bucket of popcorn for example...... I need my mini-keg of Coke Zero to go along with it!)..... BUT, i am going to try and stick this out as long as I can one day at a time... its my little thing to break my dependency on...... when I want one as a treat I will have it..... but for now, I am shooting for 1 month without and see where it takes me.............How come Diet Soda is so bad?0 -
Your kidneys will thank you.0

I feel ya.... my headaches started day 3 too..... but on day 4 I felt great....... hope that happens for you tooi'm just starting that journey i'm in 3 days now with no pepsi max my headaches have started today though i hope they dont last too long!!0 -
Woo Hoo! Then this post is both of our celebration!! Congrats to you too! :drinker: :drinker:Good work!

Just calculated it up...185 (and counting) days without a soda.
Not even a rum and coke.
I don't think any of you understand how much that last one hurts. :sad:0
