    Sparkling H20 is my go-to soda replacement.

    Yep! The Sparkling water is how I got away from soda. I don't think it was the caff or the flavor that I was craving as much as the carbonation! It has been over a year for me and my sparkling water (HyVee Black Cherry) saves me from falling back!!!!
    Good Luck to you!

    I drink green tea every day. I havent had a soda since jan 2011. I quit cold turkey. But the tea does help when I am craving it, It helps me even more if the tea is hot. Good luck

    I cut out soft drinks ( we call em cokes in Tennessee Lol!) last year as my new year resolution. I was a Dr.Pepper addict. I thought I'd never be able to live with out it and my sweet tea but surprisingly I don't really miss them at all. In a year I've had maybe 5 glasses of sweet tea and only 1/2 of one Dr.Pepper! Considering we used to drink a gallon of tea and a six pk of Dr.Pepper a day in my house that's pretty amazing. I've also found that my cravings for sweets have almost disappeared since stopping too. Its really what kick started my weightloss. Only water, coffee, and unsweetened herbal tea for me these days and I don't feel deprived in the least bit.
