Wish Me Luck...

I'm trying to quit drinking pop too, but my first step is going from regular to diet. In the past week I've only had regular pop once, when my DH brought home some from Subway. I only have 1-2 cans of diet pop a day and eventually I'll not have any!

Good luck quitting Bree!
 
Woot! You can do it Bree!! Just use a bit of that stubborn-ness you have in there, lol!

And remember how much better you felt and all that weight you lost for Disneyland!!! All from not drinking pop!!

PS - I'm doing the same thing, and restarting Clean Eating... so hopefully you and me will be skinny minnies by summer :)!
 
OH good luck!..I'd be no help as support..I gave up diet mt dew while i was pregnant and it was the first thing I asked for after my section. lol
 
First of all, I love seeing people use the word "pop". That's what we called it in Buffalo, and since I moved to Florida, when I say pop they look at me funny and say "do you mean soda?" But I digress... I give you soooo much credit for doing this! I want to give up chocolate and coffee, but I just can't seem to find the willpower. I even recently scrapped about the time I tried to give up coffee and the migranes.. ouch. Big hugs to you! You should be so proud of yourself! Maybe treat yourself to something you've been wanting at the end of the week!:thumbup:
 
Oooo that's a tough one to give up for sure!! You can do it! I rarely have pop anymore but find that if I have just one, even though it's diet, I find myself craving another one!!

Hang tough!!!

lol! as I was reading through this thread I kept thinking it sounded so weird to hear it called "pop" or "soda" in the south all soft drinks are "cokes" lol..it's not what kind of "pop" do you want ...it's what kind of "coke" do you want? lol
 
Well that's just WEIRD Nikki, lol! Up here coke is coca-cola (and if you ask for a "coke" and the place serves pepsi, they always ask "is pepsi OK?"), "pop" is everything else. :)
 
Yes, I call everything "Coke" too. :thumbup: I too have considered giving up my diet sodas. First of all I'm cutting back. I am drinking more tea and water. I'm more concerned about how hard it can be on your kidneys, etc. than the caffiene. There's always Coke Zero if you are cutting back on sugar and caffeine. Good luck!!
 
awww, Bree. I remember last year when you did that and I remember your migraines. I would just cut back rather than go cold turkey. Three cans a day for a week. And then 1 can for a week. And then zero. You might still get headaches, but weaning yourself slowly might keep you from getting migraines.
Good luck hon! You can DO it!!
 
I'm actually doing OK...had the start of a headache yesterday but Tylenol took it away really quickly. Nothing other than that, and I'm almost 3 days in... :)
 
I caved and had one last night, but not because I had a headache, I just missed tasting it! But for me, that is HUGE, going from 6+ a day, to only 1 in 2 days. I'm doing ok today again, hopefully I can keep it up!
