That is awesome karate. I am looking for alternatives to my doc too. I will need it for this weekend. I usually drink water and vitamin water throughout the week. Why can't I drink that on the weekends....so frustrating. I am going to look into some other tasty non alcoholic drinks to stock up on this weekend. My doc is vodka and if that is not around it is beer. I don't drink soda's but I am sure I am going to want something fizzy and low calorie to get through this weekend.

Try the schnapple drinks too ,After i stopped buying beer ,i went on a binge of experementing with the diffrent drinks .

Pineapple fanta is great too , lots of super good drinks .

The V8 drinks are great ,i like the veggie v-8 ,but they have one thats i think grape /pomegranate ,i drank a quart of it in 2 days .

I think its VERY important to replace the sugar in the alochol early on .

The code red mountian dew was my favorite for a while .

Just experment with them ,can try one of all of them ,and its still cheaper than a 30 pack .

I really like an iced coffee with ice cream and cream.
I have this once a week (Fat Tuesday)after gym.

Another drink I have often is Diet Ginger Beer.

I remember once when I was a kid going on a really long bike ride and ending up with a Hell of a thirst. Stopped at a school and had my fill. Common water has never tasted so good.

I am going to have to gives these suggestions a try. Heck even if I end up spending $20.00 or more to find my new doc it will be well worth it. I spend more than that on a weekend binder. Shutter...

Yes the specality drinks cost 2-3 each ,but it takes alot of them to cost as much as a 12 or 30 pack cost ,or a 60$ 1.75 of crown .

The gatorade is my old standby ,I also like the bright green sports drink .

The gatorade gets the sugar and salt in your system quick ,to kick the cravings .

For probably the last 20+ years I've been drinking plain, no flavor, sparkling water. Oh ya, and wine I still go through 2 liters of water a day. My guilty pleasure after quitting the vino....Red Bull Cranberry. One can at the end of the day...yum. But then the funny thing is I'm thirsty afterwards, so back to my water! :-D. Bobbi

I'm also a huge fan of sparkling water with lemon or lime. Normally one brand or another is on sale at the grocery store, which is great.

I also have store brand black cherry, orange, grape and cream sodas in the fridge right now. Reminds me of being a kid and my parents buying Shasta sodas in a variety case.
