just stop drinking soda all together. it's bad for you. also, carbohydrates are essential for your body to produce energy. try a low sugar diet. that's what is bad for you. a diet should change what the person eats for good. not for a short stint. good luck.
i didnt want to start a new thread, so sorry for the bump. i want to stop drinking soda, i was wondering if anyone had any tips. obviously going to water is an option, but i dont know if i could go strictly water right off the bat. would gatorade be a good choice to go to? not a fan of tea...any other ideas?
I quit drinking them a long time ago. Now I will sometimes surprise the wifey and order a soda. When I do....its the best Coke I ever had.....Please one mo please.....(E.Murphy) Agua my friend.
if you cut one soda out of your diet a day, your will lose 13 lbs over the course of a year... just cut it all together and drink water. i drink at least a half gallon a day and thats one of the biggest reasons i only have 7% body fat.
I'm still amazed how many people drink soda's regularly. That sugary corn syrup laiden beverage is one of the worst and most fattening things you can put into your body. And on top of that, not even considering what all it does to your teeth. Yuck
Just stop drinking it. It's all in your head...if you don't buy it...you can't drink it. Just remember...water is free. Just get it in your head that Coke is bad...at least that's how I see it now. I feel guilty every time I have some.
I gave up soda for the most part a couple of years ago. I stick to water mainly but drink Simply Apple & Lemonade when I need some zing. Nothing is like fresh watermelon juice with a little sugar! I'll reward myself with a soda pop here and there though..
Diet Coke is worse for you than regular Coke. Spoiler This man wants to take American money and health. "Now it’s no big surprise to most people that Coca-Cola’s main addictive ingredient was cocaine. About 60mg of the drug was used in each serving of Coke until 1903 when they company claimed to have removed the ingredient. Funny thing about it is Coca-Cola still uses and imports coca leaves which are pretty much the main ingredient in the production of cocaine. Also some officials for Coke claimed that the use of cocaine in the soft drink was always a rumor." http://www.bukisa.com/articles/128517_10-crazy-facts-about-coca-cola-you-did-not-know
Oh man, I need to give em up again....weight flies off of me when I quit for about a year..... Thanks for bumping this thread and making me realize what a quitter I was about quitting. DD
Never take another puff. This is especially tough when you go out with your friends who smoke. I recommend you don't go out to any clubs/bars this weekend. Alcohol is gonna screw it up. Just get through this weekend and you will make it. Always think about how bad they taste afterwards.
Are the withdrawals headaches? If so you're just gonna have to tough it out unless you don't mind caffeine.
