tuff one beagle...

i had to quit drinking diet coke...i was so addicted to it...

started off on mt dew when i was a kid..then regular soda...then i switched to diet pop in my 20's and then quit pop pretty much all together in my 30's

i was drinking 2 or 3 2-liter bottles every day at work...

it took me months to quit and i had a headache for the better part of 30 days... the sugar substitute, and the caffeine are so powerful..

now i drink clear pop only if i want pop, such as 7-up (my personal fav...because they never had it and never will).

and 1 pot of coffee or less during the day..

also i bought a reverse osmosis filter for my girls(plants) and i can tell u, i am so happy to drink that water its not funny, its negative mineral content make it a awesome catalyst for detoxing my body...
now i challenge myself as of these past 30 days or so to drink 4 glasses every day...it is so difficult to do its not funny....
try drinking 4 glasses of water every day for 30 days...it is very invigorating, but also very difficult to do

Med..Quit them cigarettes right now bro! this minute.... 5 years and then start again....that means u can do it. so go ahead and get er done....

Peace

Beagle me and you might be the same person. I drank a 12 pack of mt dew a day for like 2 years I think, rotted half my teeth out and I have intense stomach pains from it, I still drink it but on a much lesser extent and I need to fully stop sooner or later. I started with the exact naked juice you posted, and I also liked sobe but thats loaded with sugar. After that I started gettign the arnold palmer and koolaid packets that you mix into a bottle of water, they've got sugar but not as much as pop and you know you're also getting the 17oz of water with it. Start off with a full packet, then half, then a quarter. I keep lemon juice at home and at work and now I'll drink a bottle of water with a shot of lemon juice. I'm definatley still addicted to caffine but stopping cold turkey is not fun I tried and felt like garbage for a few day

Good luck bud

Here is the real deal, you're addicted, now that you know that, just stop period. Learn to like water and fruit juice (mostly water). You will have to learn to tell yourself that you just don't drink soda anymore. Keep telling yourself this until you believe it. Don't be a nasty to your loved ones while you are in with drawl.

BTW, this approach worked for my tobacco addiction as well (2.5 packs per day for over 35 years). It is all just mind over matter.

It is like a well disciplined soldier sitting in a fox hole scared to death, the enemy is all aroung, yet he stays his post no matter what. Just quit and get on with your life.

P.S. It took months for me to actually get over the desire, only a few days to break the addiction. It is hard man, just turn up the music and rock on. Good luck to ya.

I second the seven up.I quit drinking pop last year when I went on a health kick, within a matter of weeks I felt GREAT!!..akin to quiting smoking..witch ive done for about 6 months and for some reason started again.I drink stuff like apple juice,orange juice..V8 vegetable juice is my favorite...I wake up with lots of energy, with no need to "wake up", I dont have that nasty taste in my mouth, except for the cig taste...and I lost some wieght.(not that Is really needed to but its a plus.

dump the pop. its not the caffine, its all the dyes, additives, artificial sweeteners that is in nearly every processed drink.

For good health you need a good metabolism. you also need to keep a neutral or alkaline ph level in your body. it has been proven the caners thrive in an acidic body nature, and can not live in a alkaline body enviroment. Your metabolism can and usually is effected by anything your body has inside, and sometimes outside of it.. a proper diet can greatly improve your bodies PH levels, as well as your metabolism. Coupled with as much exercise you can get, is very beneficial to a persons drive, self esteem and general overall good health.


Drink Coffee, as plain coffee is you can. its good for you and your metabolism. Bitter items are a good source to shift your bodies Ph level towards the alkaline Ph Levels.

Any of our members with cancer ever have your Ph levels checked? I would be interested to see what it is if anyone is willing to share their info...


Cannabis is also know to help the body naturally regulate your Metabolism.
Food for thought.

you should keep the empty bottles around to remind you how much you drink.

6 liters in 2 days - considering you slept about 10 to 16 hours of those 48 hours - 38 to 32 hours was left to drink a total of THREE 2 liter bottles of Pepsi. I can imagine diabetes in your future if you continue.

It is not the caffeine, it is the corn syrup, fake asz drink with all those chemicals. You can drink caffeine in teas and coffees without ill effects.

Everything in life has to be taken in moderation.

Nice. Another brand with corn syrup.

[wolfgang]

there are plenty of herbal teas,that are good for you and give you a smaller amount of caffeine or dont have any caffeine at all. Also I have been drinking trim leaf tea,it's really a nice tasting tea,you can add milk or creme to release the THC,but Im more interested in the CBD in the tea. I drink it hot or cold,you can make a big batch of it brew it then I would keep it in a jug on my counter,I drink alot of tea,love it!!!
