Answer 1

Sorry in advance that this is so long! This happened to me once. I managed to stop. It's probably a caffeine addiction, so try tea. A.K.A. healthy way to get the caffeine. I personally like Irish breakfast tea, but you may like other kinds. For something kinda sweet that tastes good, try VitaminWater. Great stuff! As for fizzy stuff... seltzer water! If you don't like plain, there's other flavours, too. As for stopping drinking Coke... Get rid of all the Coke in your house. Did you know that Coke isn't hydrating like water-- it makes you more thirsty (another reason why you'll want more), so next time you're thirsty, grab a VitaminWater or seltzer water, or just water! I know it's hard, because you REALLY want that soda, but once you start drinking something hydrating, you'll feel better (trust me, I've been through this). I know its tempting when you see Coke,to drink some, but you could get hooked again. I recommend flat-out avoiding it for a few months till you feel you'll be able to handle a can every few days without getting hooked again. It takes a while but it works-- trust me it's worth it, you'll be glad later! Hope I helped you!!!!! :)

Answer 2

diet coke is worse for you than normal coke because they replace the sugar with sweeteners?

and trust me you would rather have sugar than sweeteners

Answer 3

Answer 4

Ooh, that's not good!! Not only do acidic drinks rot your teeth quickly, the diet soda has chemicals that don't work well with your body.

Find a drink that you find just as addicting. Water is best, but other things to try are iced tea, green tea, lemonade, and milk.

go get diabetes

Answer 6

I used to be like that and I just changed over to caffeine free diet coke, and because its so hard to get and a bit awkward it caused me to cut down. It tastes the same as normal diet coke, good luck!

Answer 7

Replace all the coke with water.  

Answer 8

eek you really need to cut down. Fizzy drinks will rot your teeth .... fast. You need to find an alternative. Its just like having to give up anything you love, it will be hard ... but has to be done for your own sake :)

Answer 9

wow and i thought i had problems with coke! i got nothin on you! one time i actually got really pissed off  and i was getting really angry and jittery and stuff and then i had some coke and i realised it was because i hadn't had any in like a day. it was weird coz you know, it's a drink, it's not meant to make you weird like that.

take up drinking water or tea (it has caffeine in it so maybe it'd be less of a shock to the system?) or something. honestly, i don't really know what you should do coz i couldn't imagine my life without the black stuff.

god i'm pathetic. i'm going to have some coke to cheer myself up.

Answer 10

DON'T WORRY

:D

Answer 11

hmm. Soda in general is basically bad for you, since the normal stuff is made with HFCS (High Fructose Corn Syrup), which clogs your arteries and causes you to gain weight. (however, since you're a street dancer, you probably won't have to worry about gaining weight.)

But the diet soda is just as bad. A little bit ago, some of us held a study on the artificial sweeteners in diet sodas. If you leave the diet soda out in the sun/anywhere not cool, and if you drink enough of it, the aspartame in it can basically poison you. A few people have died because of this.

There is only one soda I know of that does not use HFCS or artificial sweeteners. That soda is Jones soda, they make their sodas with cane sugar. You can try drinking that instead of the other sodas. I suggest the Vanilla Cream Soda, Fufu Berry, and Berry Lemonade. :) they have some good flavors.

Plus, Jones soda is caffeine free. That way you won't have to worry about getting addicted to the caffeine.

Answer 12

Coke is by far my favorite soda in the world, and if i could i would drink as much as you. unfortunately I'm fat. lol but i stopped drinking it by completely getting rid of it from my house.  Out of site out of mind.

Answer 13

Answer 14
