    Well done. That is great. I gave up all fizzy drinks over a month ago and cant believe how easy it was. I was seriously addicted. My stomach is so much flatter since not drinking it. Keep up the good work you will have no problem giving up the diet stuff.

    Way to go!!!!! Soda's are definately a tease for me.... I usually do good the first part of the week and then break down and have one. They say Water is the best thing for your body! My doctor puts it this way to me: When you drink nothing but water- your kidney's are jumping up and down in relief b/c they don't have to work so hard to filter. Water is a vacation for your kidneys!

    BRAVO!!!!!!!!

    I gave up soda about 8 years ago but even then I didn't like dark sodas, only Sprint or Ginger Ale. I started drinking fountain coke about 3 years ago and just kept going. I haven't had soda for about 6 weeks but I took a sip from my son the other night (I was eating pizza!) and it tasted horrible again! Amazing what happens once we get all of this crap out of our systems!

    Great job!! I'm sure your body thanks you!

    Way to go!! My God Father lost over 150 LB's by watching his diet, exercising, and cutting out soda!! It was the final thing holding on to him...He looks fantastic now...

    I gave up soda a year ago. Dr. Pepper and Root beer were my favorites, now water and green tea are my favorites. Great job!!
