    I wouldn't do cold turkey... I tried this and failed miserably.
    I am weak, especially when it comes to Dr. Pepper / Mr. Pibb.

    After 2 days I had a splitting headache and was dry heaving.

    There was a rehash article on this very topic today on lifehacker dot com. They suggested some specific brand of Tea.

    Good Luck!

    WTF is pop?

    J/K :D


    Good luck. I've gotten to where I never drink regular cokes anymore, but I still usually have one diet everyday.

    Havent had a soda (unless mixed with booze) since Reliant stopped giving trade floor employees free beverages. Back then I was drinking 3-5 Diet Dr. Peppers a day. Ugh.

    Your system might need to adjust for lack of sugar.

    Keep some fresh fruit handy.

    Flyer is from Ohio....

    Good luck in doing this, dude. I have thought about giving up Mello Yello (the Coca-Cola product in the South that is similar to Mountain Dew) several times but I haven't done it yet.

    But I am giving up using profanity. Not that I drop f bombs all the time in normal conversation, but when I get upset, I found that it was too easy to cuss and I don't want to do that anymore.

    You mean pop is local to Ohio and Michigan :/
    I use the term soda, but that's because pop sounds so juvenile.

    That's a tough one. I can't help it. I really enjoy cussing, so long as it doesn't offend anyone present. And if it doesn't offend anyone present, why quit, right?
