I’ve given up soda as well. Going on 4 months now. It was staple in my life because I work overnight and I need caffeine (and I don’t drink coffee)! I found an alternative in Crystal Light Energy. It’s got as much caffeine as a Mountain Dew and it’s only 5 calories :D

You can do this, Leon!

you think it’s bad now… wait til you take a swig of coke or pepsi 3-4 months down the line…

but depending on how much you drink, you should be cool to still put mix with it.

Thanks y’all. This is the end of my Jack & Coke era!

I now have to drink it straight, which means I’ll probably switch to a better tasting, albeit more expensive bourbon like Booker’s or Basil Hayden.

Damn shame I’ve given it this much thought!!!

I did something like this one time. I cut out all dark sodas, pepsi, coke, cola. And if I drank any soda it was like orange, pineapple, or clear (sprite, sierra mist). I also gave up burgers one summer. If I got one it was at Burger King. I could really tell the difference. Especially when I gave up colas. Good luck!

You can do it! I only drink gingerale if I must have a soda. Currently, on the master cleanse (for the 2nd time), gave up all meat except fish after the first time (get your mind out of the gutter…lol). Most of it is mental. If nothing else, you will be healthier.
