[...] December I had a cross blog conversation with my friend Shannon and we talked about how to stop the soda addiction craving. It’s looking like I might have to kick it up a notch when it comes to my breaking sugar [...]

It's easier if you don't have any at home and you go on vacation. It's not readily available that way. Drink water at the restaurant and you'll save a bunch of money anyway. Really, that's how I stop my cycle, by going on vacation and not starting up. Once I start up again, it's difficult to go without for a day, though I usually only drink one a day. Unfortunately, I like coffeee too. Diana's last blog post..Vegan Desserts from Earth Balance

Well… considering I drank at least 3 diet Coke’s today… I can’t imagine a more timely topic!

Thanks for sharing how you were able to give it up – sometimes hearing how others are able to accomplish something (I consider cold-turkey to be a story – headaches and grumpy! Not fun! How did you ever get through it! )

Now you’ve inspired me… probably won’t go the cold turkey route… but maybe one instead of 3 tomorrow would be a good start!

Great CBC!

Great topic! I think a lot of people have this problem. I tried to stop for 7 years. Coke was my only vice & it was so hard to stop. I drank it all day, nothing else. I would try to stop but never lasted more than a day. In August I finally quit cold turkey. I was going to try the Body Applicator for the 1st time & wanted the best results. So I picked a day before it came & quit. You need to drink a lot of water to flush the toxins for 3 days so that's what I did. Nothing else. After that it was just plain stubborness to keep me from drinking pop. Now when I try some it's too sweet for me. I think I've finally kicked the habit!

I love a good fizzy beverage every now and then. I don't generally keep soda in the house, but I grab them when I'm out shopping or running errands. I never really thought about cutting out the soda completely ... but I should definitely cut back on my soda and caffeine in general. I'm definitely a caffeine junkie, soda, coffee, tea, if it's caffeinated I'll probably drink it. I told Lisa if they put some caffeine in my water I would definitely switch from coffee to water in the morning LOL Loretta's last blog post..It’s a Grilled Cheese and Soup Kind of Day

Angie,

What a great idea to CBC with Shannon.

I appreciate your insight regarding becoming soda-free, although (fortunately) I haven’t drunk sodas for years. (Well, except a few times when, like you, I used Ginger Ale to calm my stomach. They’ve also developed a “green tea” version that’s now my choice.)

Having said that, I was a really heavy soda user years ago…many times as breakfast and lunch substitutes. Big no, no, I realize.

I’m looking forward to the rest of the week and your conversations with Shannon.

Yeah soda used to be a big addiction for me...not so much the sugar kind but the diet stuff was so addicting to me. I just had to give it up cold turkey and focus on drinking water and hot tea. I hardley ever have it now...maybe like once every couple of months and i find it kinda tastes too sweet and like chemicals.
