    okay I am drinking my unsweetened ice tea, but I won't lie and tell you that I don't miss my diet coke, it took a lot of determination this morning to order this tea and not diet coke. Soda free for 12 hours so far!!!!!

    So far, so good for me as well. Was tough at lunch time to not order soda as that is usually when I have my first soda of the day. Tea sweetened with Splenda is actually pretty tasty though! Just day 1 of a long journey, but looking forward to conquering this challenge!

    Day 1 and it was a tough morning. I was up late last night and my first instinct would be to grab an energy drink and then a diet Dr pepper for later. I came to work and had a coffee instead. on my 3rd cup of water. Good luck everyone.

    Sounds good - I don't drink soda to often but it's time I stop completely.

    I cannot say I will be 100% not drinking any but I will be in for the overwhelming majority. I dont want to "not be allowed" but I havent had one in almost 2 weeks... SCORE!

    I am soda free all year long! I didn't enjoy giving up my soda, but my doctor had me do it years ago. If it doesn't' help my goal, it hurts my goal. Water might be boring but it is best for me! Cheaper, too! Okay, I have maybe 3 - 4 a year!

    GREAT JOB!

    Count me in...not only will I promise no Soda for September, but I will add, black teas as well. Time to get off the caffeine cycle.....Starbucks makes great green teas iced or hot!

    Day one of my no soda challenge complete, however it was almost delayed. In Canada we get cranberry gingerale usually every fall until Christmas and than it's gone. Last yr we didn't get it at all (or at least I couldn't find it) and what do I find when I get to safeway last night? my beloved cranberry gingerale. urgh. I didn't buy any though so that was a small victory.

    Congrats to everyone who had a successful Day One! I made it through without too much trouble only because my workday was super busy and I didn't have time to think about how much I was craving a soda. Still on track for today - so far so good!

    Here's to a great Day Two people!

    I'm so in, I usually drink a can a day... (diet pepsi or coke zero). I haven't had one in 2 days though, so far so good.

    Day 3 and the start of the holiday weekend! I feel like I've been drinking TONS of water to replace my usual soda intake!

    Good luck to everyone over the weekend and keep up the good work!

    Day 3 over! I think this officially the logest I've gone without soda in the last 15 years. That's pretty bad!

    Day 5 and still holding up! I must admit that I did want one today (mostly because my wife was drinking one) but resisted the urge.

    Hope you all are doing good!
