I gave up drinking sodas earlier this year. And alcohol for the mot part (still drink every once and awhile in social situations) i did it to get even more hardcore in my training. And also realizing how the empty calories in beer and sodas are just kind of saddening. Not to mention it fucks up your digestive system... and the bloating oh man... the bloating. How the hell did i drink this shit everyday as a kid? after seeing how bloated that bullshit makes you.

I hate a Dr. Pepper today... i was having a cheat day. And i felt so gross drinking it like it was just watery sugar... grams and grams of watery sugar. It just grossed me out when i was done

Anyone else feel this way about sodas? i think my body has become so used to not having them. That when i drink it my body is yelling ''NAH BRO NAH''

i hear ya

a while after i gave all that shit up i had a coke and couldn't believe how foul it was... i used to love the stuff

I gave it up, too.

It makes a big difference.

I kicked soda to the curb 3 years ago. I'm a tea drinker, hot and cold.

I love beer I'm never giving that up... I love sports s during the baseball, basketball, footbll seasons, pizza, ribs,and subs wash down real nicely with a cold .

yeah, I know what you mean, sodas can make your belly look like a ballon even with training

cold water, orange juice and some (like twice a month) mojitos, that's what I'm currently drinking this summer, that's all

I need to give it up again. For a long time when I wasn't drinking it, I could get along without it. Now that I started drinking it again, I can't stop. Although I'm trying to cut back.

One thing I always thought about soda was that it smells and tastes like a cleaner. Yeah I know, I still would drink it.

once in a great while i'll drink a pepsi, coke is too harsh for me. i notice the next day i crave another one

for summer i like cold water and iced tea and barley tea. yummy!

I don't drink much soda, but a couple times a week, I need a Diet Coke from McDonald's.

I predict you will have to take fewer showers, thus cutting down on your water usage and saving you money. Because, you know - soda, poop, showers, etc.

Some days I just need to have one!

dang,. i drank an A&W rootbeer soda today and almost immediately wanted another. are they addictive????

Good deal man. Drinking that much sugar IS unnatural, should make you feel sick. It's only through habit that people get acclimated to it. I have a ginger beer or an orange crush once in a while and I can barely finish it. It's like two plates of dessert.

I still drink a lot of diet coke, which has its own issues, but trying to make more unsweetened iced tea and stuff like that. I do 4 bags of peach or raspberry herb tea, plus one bag of black tea, tastes great and no sugar.

Haven't had one in 5 years. Never crave one. After you've stopped for a while it DOES taste nasty. You have to wean yourself though...worse than drugs.

i blame my employers, snacks and drinks are free for employees at work. SOMEbody has to drink them so i had another root beer soda today.
