Hmmm I enjoy crackers and water is awesome so wow maybe I should start doing that for a diet. Now did you exercise while doing this? or did you just do normal things like walk around, work, and such?

beers healthy...all natural ingredients:D

I never drink soda. unfortunately I drink loads of coffee and alcohol (mostly beer).

I will say that I lost weight when I quit the soda. I'm not fat, but an average size, and I lost probly about 15 lbs fairly quickly, and I wasn't even trying! I've read in magazines and the newspaper that "researchers" have supposedly found some serious links between diet soda and obesity. something about your body stops correlating sweet stuff with calories. I think it has something to do with the fact that most people who drink diet soda are probly making a faint attempt at losing weight, so they are probly fatasses anyway.

I love juice. Grapefruit juice. Lots and lots of grapefruit juice.

Though my work offers free soda and I think I've imbibed more Diet Mountain Dew in the past three months than my entire life.

Good luck with ditching the drink...

Yeah, I'm with you on that one. If there was a going to the gym pact, I would be all over that... Gold's Gym is getting a good $30+ from me every month... Yet I haven't set foot inside since I signed up for the membership. :( Damn desk job enabling the pounds.

No just did regular everyday day stuff walking and working.But keep in my mind crackers and water was all I had in that two month period.Nothing else.

I have thought about trying to give it up... my dentist was presureing me to..

But when I'm hung over I need a cold fizzy drink... Get that head ruch and it seems to take away the dehydration more than juice.. I probably drink around 2 litres of soda a week... It's hard to kick.

As some of you might know, I'm completely addicted to Coca Cola classic. But I've pretty much stopped drinking it, except for an occasional can or bottle on the weekend. Now all I drink is water, and one cup of tea in the morning. Been doing that since the beginning of September. I also exercise everyday now. I haven't lost a bit of weight. In fact, when I first started drinking the water, I PUT on weight...LOL. I'm sticking with it, but holy hell is it discouraging when everyone else in the world agrees that drinking mostly water helps. I mean, by cutting coke out of my diet, I cut my calories by a rather huge amount. I used to drink a lot of coke.

The ones I drink are, lemonade and Ginger beer... sometimes a pepsi max or a coke zero.

Sometimes rasbery soft drink with vodka..

We call it soft drink in Australia not soda.. strange Phalanx called it soda in the title of the thread.
