Master 1993 Riverside, IL | Subject: RE: addicted to diet soda... For years, I was addicted to Diet Rite...would go through a case (remember when they sold 24-pack cases of soda?) in about 3 days. The carbonation wrecked havoc on me. I loved the taste of it, but HATED the way I felt after drinking can after can of it. I'd get all bloated and burpy and just plain felt like crap. One day, I just decided to stop...cold turkey. I haven't looked back since. I feel SO much better now, too. I still occasionally have a beverage (such as iced tea or Fruit2o flavored water) sweetened with Splenda every now and then. I'm trying hard to wean myself off the fake sugar. I mainly try and stick with just water, skim milk, an occasional glass of juice (OJ, cranberry, etc), and sometimes a glass of chocolate milk as a recovery drink.

Expert 1158 Chicagoland | Subject: RE: addicted to diet soda... I gave up Diet Coke a couple years ago for Lent. Not sure why Lent but it was a good idea. drank tons of water. But then stress and work took over and I am back to the habit. trying to kick it again because those $1.25 bottles at work really start adding up. Water is free! |
