Hello, I just thought I would share a little success with you today. 
It has been almost TWO YEARS since I have had a drop of pop! No diet pop either. I feel so much better about myself and water has become my best friend.
Now back to the original post.. to quit or not to quit? I chose to quit, and you can to! I'm here if you need any support, add me!

Thats awesome. Soda is my biggest evil. I used to drink 2-3 diet sodas a day. I don't like coffee so it would be my morning pick me up, my lunch drink, and my dinner drink. I have gone one week without a soda or any caffeine and I am still struggling with not wanting one. Not sure if I can make it 2 years lol0

You can!! Once you get past the first two weeks it's easy. It makes it hard because soda is always the cheapest and most convenient.
But you can do it! Add me if you want!

I haven't had a soda in over 7 years....do NOT miss it one bit, and in fact, cannot even tolerate the taste any more! Yay for getting rid of empty calories/non-nutritive liquids! \m/0

Well, I haven't had ANY pop in 2 months and my husband had a pepsi and I thought, ''Oh that looks so good it's not gonna hurt to have a little sip''. It Was SO nasty!!! I couldn't believe it!!! It was just thick fizzy syrup! Yuck!
And no comments about , ''well, pepsi IS gross. Coke is better''... LOL!!!! :laugh:0 -
I have no problem dropping it. I can't have caffeine as it gives me migraines but my fiance and I often share a drink if we're grabbing a quick bite and then we'll have sprite. Otherwise I save Sweet Tea for special dinners out and drink water the rest of the time.0

Yes you can!!!! Congrats on going a week without it! Diet is just as bad ,if not worse. Artificial sweeteners are just horrible for you. I think it's fair to say you are addicted and thats why you are struggling so much. I really hope you can stay away from it. It will really be a wonderful change for you. :flowerforyou:0
