Break the Soda Habit!
If you're used to drinking a can (or two or three) of regular soda a day, it can be hard to switch to water. But believe me, your body will thank you! Try these tips from fellow members for breaking the soda habit:
1. Don't keep an endless supply of soda in the fridge. Buy only enough to have one a day, and ration it out.
2. If you can't go cold turkey, switch to diet soda to help wean yourself. Diet drinks taste a lot better than they used to!
3. Replace soda with water or unsweetened iced tea for just a week — then have a can. You may be surprised to find you've lost the taste for it!
4. Stop drinking soda out of a can. Instead, fill a glass with ice, then add the soda. You'll drink less soda, and it will be easier to eventually wean yourself off it.
5. Calculate the calories. If you drink one soda a day for a year, that's 58,400 calories, or almost 17 pounds!
