I've tried to decrease my soda intake somewhat. It's my only weakness I'm afraid!

Google JediJohnnie and May the Force be with you!

So I am trying to not drink so much soda and more water. I'm drinking lemon water now. So refreshing.

I "gave up" soda for Lent.  I plan to give it up for good.  I know soda doesn't have anything good in for me.
I too like a slice of lemon in my water.

As I am trying hard to lose 30 pounds, I too continue to promise myself to drink more water (and less sugary beverages). In fact, it was one of my New Year's resolutions...but to no avail. I literally have to force myself (and talk myself in) to drinking more water.

Drinking so many sodas isn't good for you, i only drink water, then if i had a taste for some juice, then i'll drink fruit punch or orange juice, but some strong sodas are good to help with digestion, like making you burp.

Try adding other fruits and veggies to your water to make it taste better.

Water is the best! Personally, I can (and prefer to) drink it without flavor but I LOVE sparkling water! It tastes amazing. For anyone trying to stop drinking soda, sparkling water might be a good alternative  :thumbsup:

That's really good - keep it up!  I almost never drink soda now, and have small drinks of water throughout the day. Doing it that way keeps you hydrated, helps with digestion, and helps lower eye pressure (which is important for me, as I have glaucoma).

I used to drink a can of Diet Coke virutally every day.  Now I'm lucky to have a soda once a month!  Definitely saw improvements in my skin.

Water is probably my favorite thing to drink.

That is a great move! I never really was big on soda, but sometimes I can't help but crave it.

The only time I drink pop (soda) is when I have an upset stomach  and I really don't like water that much but I force myself to drink it you are suppose to divide your weight by 2 and that's how many ounces of water you should drink every day

Yes cutting out any sugary drink even if it's iced tea is very beneficial. It has helped me lose weight!
