Giving up Coca Cola

I used to drink a ton of cola. After I stopped, before long I could only stomach a few sips but would still be seduced by the image of a cold can of soda. Now even that doesn't attract me. What changed? I remember when I worked at various restaurants and noticing that if i drank water with lemon, I was having to run to the bathroom all day. But if i drank diet coke with a lemon slice all day long... I never had to pee. Where exactly was it going???? The longer I've stayed away from soda, the more I've grown to dislike it. I drank carbonated water for a while, which was a nice refreshing alternative, but now i don't even want that. I get my caffeine from coffee; i never felt coke was a very effective source of caffeine for me anyway. Good luck to you in staying away from it for good!

Thanks, mellie! I will try to find some other drinks that taste good, but dont have the calories or sugar. For now, its just water, but I know, that I can´t do that forever. I want some taste! : )

And the pee thing? I noticed that, too! When I started with the water. I think I went to the bathroom 10 times a day. My coworkers thought something was wrong with me. Never had that with pepsi
