All soda or sugar soda? Some say diet is worse. ICE is disgusting. Just drink no calorie/sugar Powerade/ Vitamin Water.

I used to drink at least one diet coke per day. Gave it up a couple years ago, and haven't missed it a bit.

I did the same and found seltzer water is the perfect replacement ...assorted flavors and bubbles...lots of bubbles....

The crystal light just as bad as diet soda

Carbonated water, lemon or blackberry, one of the few healthy things I consume :)

I'm not an expert but read many studies that your body doesn't know how to break down the sugar substitute like it does actual sugar. Meaning outside of the calories diet soda is WORSE for you than regular soda. Neither is good for you but I highly prefer the taste of regular soda.

Only drink diet when I have to like a couple months before summer starts when I'm trying to shed the pounds I tired to put on over the winter. Bulk/cut type stuff

not really face)(*^%

I have cut down more than half.
Jan 1st. will be my last day

BAS, I smoked like crazy, quit almost 8 yrs now, cold turkey. The patches n gum really help. Keep a loaded ash tray nearby too and whenever u crave it think about licking and smelling the ashtray. You're craving will cease to exist after a few licks n sniffs :103631605 Now soda is a whole nutha animal, I am majorly addicted to coke (the drink). Seriously trying to cut back tho. GL BAS

After a short time of quitting soda your taste buds change. Then you take a sip of it and think "how did I actually drink that stuff" ?

Orange juice is as bad. The only time I drink soda is when I get pizza out every once and a while.

will have to agree, OJ full of sugar. have tried the Trop 50, doesn't taste the same.

and I have a feeling I will want a soda with Pizza as well. Don't think I've ever had anything else with Pizza ( maybe a Beer )

Drink 2-5 cans of coke / pepsi each day. Healthy as a horse.

Except for my COPD which sucks. I did quit smoking. Made a deal with God. Wish I did it long ago.
