NSV? Yeah, I guess it is..

That's a great NSV!! I hope it will help your stomach pain issue go away. In the meantime, I know it will help your grocery budget massively! Good for you!!

Soda is expensive! I have switched to water here, but my husband takes a can of diet coke or diet pepsi to work with his lunch each day. I have found that the scale is moving downwards better if I drink just water and not soda, even though it was diet. I have one 12oz mug of home brewed coffee in the morning each day, but that's it.

My husband just finally moved here from Morocco permanently last year. The FIRST thing he did was decide how much he loved Coke!! With that and eating like a pig, he went from around 150 to 210 in just few months!!! Anyway, a month ago, he decided he wanted to lose a little weight and stopped drinking more than 1-2 cokes a day. Before, he was probably drinking 5-6 a day. In a months time, JUST changing that...........he has lost 11 lbs! His jeans that were tight on him before are now 2-3 inches loose!

Coke is definitely bad for ya! Like you said........look at all the things it can do and it is very corrosive! My 8th grade teacher used to always tell us........to clean a corroded car battery.....just pour coke on it....its THAT acidic!! I love me some Diet Coke but I have done well lately laying off on it!

You are doing great finding other drinks! Water is great! I drink a lot of tea. Don't look back on that bad coke habit! lol We are all learning and it is GREAT MFP has a place to let us all share this kind of info with each other that really makes a difference in other people's lives!

That's awesome! I quit drinking soda a couple months ago as I was drinking 6-7 cans of dr pepper a day. It was ridiculous! That was the only thing I drank and now I hate even thinking about drinking it. Don't get cravings or anything anymore. Great job!

Fantastic self control. I too struggle a bit with diet cokes. Was drinking two or three every day. Haven't had one since I started P90X though (5 days now).

Great job! I was a diet soda junkie. It was one of the hardest things I have ever given up....but I did it. You should be proud of yourself!
