Alcohol to Budweiser zero to Diet sundrop

So, I quit drinking alcohol 2 weeks ago. I drink sodas, water, and diet soda. Also drinking budweiser zero which has zero alcohol but are 50 cals...How do I kick the soda, diet soda habit? Should I use those drink packets that go in bottled water? I have at least 65 pounds to lose, would be better if I lost 100.

    I switched to sparkling water with a squeeze of lemon or lime juice. Super refreshing, and these days I find soda unpalatable, I feel like it just coats my mouth.

    I just made the decision. Traded pop for unsweetened tea cold turkey. It won't work for everyone. But I was fed up with not being able to do what I wanted to do cause my body was too big. I was just so ready.

    I practically live on Coke Zero, I have no issues whatsoever losing weight, doesn’t effect my appetite control and consider it a calorie free treat

    Yes! I feel the same way now. It's like it makes my mouth sticky and the taste doesn't go away. For me, I use the flavor packets or lime.
