Hardest New Years res

It hasnt been a day yet.

I usually drink ~36 oz. of Coca Cola a day

Now im just drinking a butt load of water.

Anyone done this? Tips?
 
just keep drinking water. you won't feel like drinking pop if you are full. it's good for you anyway. the frequent bathrooms can be annoying though.

on my 7th bottle today, hahaha
 
I gave up pop about a year ago and I don't miss it at all. I just drink tea, crystal light, water and milk now. Juice occasionally.
 
Unsweetened tea FTW! Also, I can speak from experience that giving up soda is worth it. I used to drink about 3 cans a day (minimum). Dropped it over a year ago (down to a couple of cans a week). I lost a few pounds and feel much better. The first 3 weeks were a bitch though. Keep at it. 🙂
 
Don't forget to have some Excedrin handy for when you get a headache from the caffeine withdrawal. It takes a few days to get over too but excedrin has a small amount of caffeine which will help you feel better.
 
I never drank a lot of the stuff. Sure, I drink it ocassionally, but I don't understand how people can drink any sort of carbonated beverage every day. That would be like having Ramen every day to me.
 
I did for 3 months once...lost a bit of weight and became more energetic but you do get withdrawl

all my pop now is in the form of coke...mixed with my rum
 
i gave up sodas on 6/24/08 and lost 20 lbs just from that, then lost some more from eating a little better

i'd show before/after pics of the 40lb total loss but i dont want my pic photoshopped everywhere
 
I switched from Mountain Dew to Diet coke about 2 years ago. Last year after almost 4 months of constant headaches I gave up diet coke and quit using sweetener in my coffee (back to sugar) and my headaches went away.

At my parents I drinked diet coke for a week and the headaches came back, first time in a year. Havn't had any pop in a week now and no headaches heh. Anyway, you get use to it after a while 🙂

Oh, you mean soda.

:thumbsup:😀

If I switched to Diet Coke with my Bourbon and Coke drinks, I could save probably 5K calories a week. But I hate Diet Coke...it tastes like mule ass dipped in watered-down flat soda. 😛
