I was a big soda drinker before I started my weight loss journey. I'm talking at least two 44oz cups from the gas station up the street. :embarassed: So then I went to diet to avoid caffeine withdrawal headaches. I was drinking about 2 cans a day, which is a huge step. So then I tried incorporating more water, but didn't work out so well. Now it's like my tastebuds don't WANT soda anymore! I was a big Diet Mt. Dew fan, and now I barely drink that even! Water all the way! It's amazing how your body can change like that! Much easier than trying to force it down! I actually WANT an ice cold water from the fridge! Wahooo!!!:happy:

    I was a huge Mt Dew fan and the start of the year I cold turkey quit drinking anything with caffeine in it.
    I am getting in 80-100 oz of water a day, then treat myself with a Sprite some times or a G2.

    I still hate water, but I used to drink a lot of coke. I never have or want to have full fat coke any more, even when I have a 'day off'. I consider that a victory.
