Question

How do you break the habit of drinking soda pop?

Answer 1

Try to start drinking juices. Realize how much money you waste a year by buying sodas. But make it a habit to drink juice/flavored water/water. Look at the labels a thinking about all of the sugar you're putting in your body. Also, think about the money you'll save by opting for water instead of tea or soda whenever you go out to eat.

From Today show website:

Lose high calorie beverages

If you cut out soda, sugary drinks and caloric coffee concoctions, your body will reap big benefits. Check this out: By trimming 250 liquid calories off each day – that’s just one 20-ounce bottle of soda, or 16 ounces (2 cups) fruit juice, or two bottles flavored water, or one 16-oz Starbucks whole milk flavored latte – you’ll save at least 7,000 calories and lose two pounds at the end of four weeks. Plus, if you quit your soda habit, you'll prevent nine cups of straight sugar from entering your body.

Answer 2

It's easy.

I've done it 1000's of times.

Which means,

almost impossible( for me anyway).

You need some strong will power

and get use to drinking water.

I resigned myself to "Death By Soda Pop".

Not a bad way to go, I can only think of one better way -:).

Answer 5

Try carbonated water instead.

Answer 6

sparkling water is a good substitute for the effect soda would have in your mouth.

there really isn't a 'transitional' drink, it's better just to drop soda completely, or take it out of your diet bit by bit. You'll notice once you stop drinking it, eventually the craving will go away as well.
