    I stopped drinking it a ton when I was pregnant, just because I was so thirsty all the time and it never made anything better. I don't drink it often now, but when I do its only once in a while. I have a hard time drinking water though and I'm always drinking crystal light tea in the big jug which isn't much better.

    I keep hearing about how many calories we can consume just with drinks in a day ... this is starting to click with me. I drink mostly pop and coffee/cappucino's throughout the day. Sometimes I drink un-needed calories from milk or maybe juice. I try and drink herbal tea and water. Pop is the hardest to quit though ... since I like sweet stuff. I always seem to go back to pop. I've quit drinking pop before, for months, then get tired of drinking water etc... I don't really like citrus or tart, like lemon water/tea. I've had the pop drinking habit since i was 16 and drink at least 32 ounces a day. I don't mind diet ... but eventually get tired of drinking that too. I just seem to stick with pop the easiest. I think drinking pop has been what's put most of my weight on over the years!

    I tried switching from regular to diet but kept finding myself having a regular one every now and then. The every now and then turned into only regular and no diet and the cycle of quitting would start again. I finally quit sodas last year by drinking any of the Crystal Light (Wallmart Great Value) Drink Mix on the go packets that have caffeine. Green Tea Peach mango, Natural Citrus Splash, Wild Strawberry... At 10 cals a packet, it satisfies my cravings.
