    Hi! I used to be a soda drinker and it's hard to cold turkey it but I did. Maybe if you substitute with a water and a crytsal light powder. You might be bored with just water to begin with. Soda has caffeine so you might need a tea or coffee for some caffeine to get over the hump. Good Luck!!!

    I use to drink 2-3 3 liters a day of sugar filled soda everyday. I was addicted to it, when I opened my last 3 liter I would start worrying about getting more. Now if I drink any at all its diet. I stopped craving it, I hope you do too. :flowerforyou:

    Welcome Cynthia, I'm sure you will be successful. You can try club soda, and put a splash of juice in it to give it flavour.
    You still get the satisfying fizziness that you don't get with water and only a small amount of juice so not too much sugar or calories. It's a nice compromise.
