I figured "why not?", if i was able to keep booze at bay in 2014 in theory i should also be able to quit simple soda pop drinks, no?

Day 3 with not a drop of soda so far.

I won't lie, i love the stuff, but at the same time i need to drop some weight and every little change one can make helps...... even if only a little.

And also, when you think about it, there really are no benefits at ALL to drinking soda. It's just water with a ton of sugar in it, and if that wasn't bad enough - most of the soda brands also have the toxic high fructose corn syrup in them. At least booze had a few minor benefits (heart health, circulation, relaxation, etc), but soda on the other hand has absolutely none.

Here's to a soda-free 2015

I hope to rid myself of soda and NA beers at some point, getting a handle on the alcohol problem is foremost however I won't quit my coffee lol

Google 'Effects of Phosphoric Acid' and I bet you will give up Soda! PA is in virtually every brand of soda.

Great plan to lose weight!

Good luck with that. I drink way too much pop/soda. I use the sodastream stuff which is supposed to be a little better for you (or less worse).

I had 3 glasses of diet cola in the morning (don't drink coffee). I didn't quit drinking, I just quit alcohol.
