closest taste I have ever found to the original is diet Sunkist and diet rootbeer.


Both good....but neither has caffeine. I try now to only drink diet drinks when I need the caffeine.

Water only here, too. Approximately 120 oz a day and I’m feeling good.

Quit them cold turkey at the end of June after drinking probably 3-4 conservatively every day.

haven;t had one since.. congrats Walt... let's keep up the good work

either drinking water or Powerade zero sugar. and beer occasionally but that's it.

I've come so far in this journey

Every now and then I crave a Dr. Pepper when I’m hungover, but I drink maybe one soda a month.

Giving up soda was my 2018 New year's resolution. I also dropped nicotine finally on 1/1/18. I lost 40 lbs in 2018 due to that and a lot of other lifestyle changes, but I think dropping soda was the biggest one.

Only water and coffee for 13 months now

I always heard most people put on weight after stopping smoking.

That’s awesome about quitting nicotine

Kudos on cutting it but what was the attraction to having that many sodas a day? You had to have felt like utter crap the majority of the time, no?

From my experience, you don't realize how bad those things make you feel until you stop drinking them.
