    matcha green tea + honey or stevia drops
    chai black tea + vanilla stevia drops
    Diet 7up if I'm feeling naughty
    Diet 7up + Gin + lime juice if I'm feeling naughtier
    Red wine when I have the calories or accidentally forget to care

    Or I use my refillable water bottle, slice up half a lemon, pour water over it, refill and drink all day. Tastes way better than just squeezing the juice in there. I thought of mixing it up and trying limes :)

    Also, plain coconut milk.

    water and green tea are the ONLY drinks i drink now.
    i used to drink milk, but even THAT has added sugars.
    i stay away from fruit juice like the plague and carbonated drinks are like secondhand poison to me.

    I admit I drink way to much Mt. Dew. 2-20oz a day.cut back to 1-16.9oz....but this tends to be the reason I am not loosing as fast as should be because of the amount of sugar. I have replaced the pop with Liption Iced Tea with Lemon, which is still to much sugar. Besides WATER, What do you all drink?

    I drink mostly water with a squeeze of organic lemon--makes it less boring and has hardly any calories. You can put a drop or two of liquid stevia if it is too sour for you, but I don't find it to be too sour just as it is. And I also drink decaf and green tea (I put a squeeze of lemon in that too).

    Aside from water...(which I keep a bottle of with me 24/7, cuts down on the desire to drink anything when you are not thirsty), I drink coffee, usually black, sometimes with cream and splenda (no calories), if I HAVE to have a coke I go with coke zero (also no calories). If you don't like water get some Mio, tastes great and gives you all the benefits of drinking water. Also the flavored carbonated waters are really good as well.

    Try lemon or lime juice in water with no sugar

    Cucumber slices or rosemary with lemon slices is good, too. If you start trying to drink water, it becomes easier. I was a kool-aid kid, so I feel your pain.

    I was drinking over 1000 calories a day in Dew and other sodas...

    Now I pretty much drink coffee, water and some times soda, tea, cranberry juice, OJ, milk.

    I try and make my coffee worth something by adding protein powder to it. It's tough though, cuz if you add the powder too early, it clumps and is horrible. So you have to let the coffee cool down a bit (or add some milk, which I don't do often).

    My goto drink is water with lemon juice in it. Not sure how healthy the lemon juice is, but it makes water a lot better.

    Be careful of those diet drinks... I don't trust them. If I'm gonna drink soda, I'm gonna drink soda. I'm not going to drink some odd tasting version of it.

    I've been trying to quit drinking diet coke, and have discovered that 1/4 a cup of pure blueberry juice (no sugar) topped up with fizzy water and a squeeze of lime is really delicious and satisfying.

    I drank diet coke for 50 years! From the time I was 14 years old. I stopped and had a headache for about two weeks but my stomach ache went away and I feel so much better. I now drink water no less than 8 glasses and herbal teas any type with out sugar. Sometimes I just put lemon in my water and enjoy. Being hooked on soda is awful because you can get it anywhere and it is so socially acceptable. If I have no choice like at a picnic or something where I forgot to bring my water I will have a diet soda but I think in the last year I have only had that happen twice. Good luck on your journey.

    I made myself a concoction of 4 quarts of water, 1 cup of lemon juice, 1 cup of Clamato juice (8 oz = 60 calories) and 12 tsp of sugar. Add ice and store in fridge. A 12 oz. glass contains 11 calories and I can drink it all day without getting too much sugar. Substitute some other kind of juice if you don't like a tangy taste, which Clamato has.

    Skim milk on non lifting days, whole milk on lifting days, one coffee with cream and sugar with breakfast every day and a fruit smoothie for the quick carbs before a workout. Otherwise it's water.

    Herbal teas, like many people have said. If you need extra sweetness, try a little bit of zero calorie sweetener.
