Extreme Veteran  499   Racine WI |  Subject: RE: Diet Coke Addiction 2005 EditionI guess I'll have to have another DC while I contemplate the deep meaning of this thread.....and oh by the way, I'm with the other regular DC drinkers, DC w/ Slenda sucks, way too syrupy.

Expert 893 Livermore, Ca | Subject: RE: Diet Coke Addiction 2005 Edition The only problem I have with DC is that it's a diuretic. Have to run to the head every 30 mins. On hard workout days H2O is the only thing to down. JMD |

Veteran 166 Ventura, California | Subject: RE: Diet Coke Addiction 2005 Edition I gave up Diet Pepsi earlier in the yer and it has made an unreal difference in my life. I was drinking 12-13 perday...yes per day and no water or anything...just 12 diet pepsi's and 3 or 4 mtn. dew's for good measure... Now I have one occasionally and my body does not like it at all...WATER AND PROPEL (when I want a little flavor) are the nectar of the gods!!!!! |

Bad analogy, just made me think of walmart for some reason. A thousand pardons.....I'm not being very nice, especially to a new user here. Is it Friday yet?? |

Veteran 1108 Perth, Oz | Subject: RE: Diet Coke Addiction 2005 Edition I gave up fizzy drink about a year or so ago, its a complete addiction. No coffee for me either but I've never drunk coffee I just don't like it. I drink water and the occasional 100% fruit juice if I want flavor or energy/sugar. Since then I've had the occasional coke if I'm out for lunch or dinner or drinks and I just don't seem to like the taste of it like I did before. I couldn't go a day without at least a can of coke. |

Extreme Veteran 476 Denham Springs | Subject: RE: Diet Coke Addiction 2005 Edition I gave up drinking caffine Jan 1 of this year also.... My blood pressure was creeping up to high normal and I figured that was the main reason... I still eat chocolate at times but that is like a 95% decrease in caffiene for me. I noticed I sleep better and GI wise its much nicer now also..... Now everything is clicking along .... |

| Regular 65 Southern Adirondacks | Subject: RE: Diet Coke Addiction 2005 Edition My morning coffee is my only true addiction, don't think I'll ever give it up. It's a ritual, I actually grind my own bean every morning, the aroma of brewing coffee - awesome. The rest of the day I drink tea and water. While the Accelerade is used during the race, after the event, our running group always has a celebritory beer. I don't think we'll be giving that up anytime soon. Is beer a fizzy drink?

| Extreme Veteran 348 Honolulu, HI | Subject: RE: Diet Coke Addiction 2005 Edition atta girl! i think we must be the only people posting now - wacky Hawaiian and Australian time zones! so am i assume that "Oz" is a term for Australia? hadn't heard that one before. have you read the book "In A Sunburned Country" by Bill Bryson?? It's fantastic... made me want to visit your country even more than I already did! |

Veteran 1108 Perth, Oz | Subject: RE: Diet Coke Addiction 2005 Edition Yep it seems pretty quiet around here now. oops yep Oz is an abbreviation for Australia. Aussie, and Ozzie etc. we tend to shorten everything. I haven't read that one but I have read umm I think it was called A Walk in the Woods about the Appalachan trail (sorry if spelled that wrong) and one about a walk in England, made me want to go and see/do both of those. |
