I never realized how much I depended on the caffeine and sugar from soda ( pop for those of you from other regions of the country ) until this weekend.
I gave it up on Thursday and it's KILLING me. |

I gave it up two months ago-my beloved Pepsi. I lost a total of 10 pounds between that and giving up the sugar in my coffee! But how I miss that soda-snuck a glass tonight and it was lovely!

There are other things like caffeine and that is what is messing with you. There really is an addiction problem with caffeine. Look it up.

I gave up sugar in coffee i'm now using splenda You are actually worse off using a sugar substitute because it's chemically altered and not natural in any way. |

Ummm...look at the first post again and you'll see that I did mention the caffeine in the soda. I used to drink Mountain Dew, so I had the caffeine/sugar double whammy to give up. |

My weight was the main reason for giving it up. I've been hanging around 200 pounds for about 10 years now. But I wound up standing on a scale the other day and I was up to 210. Couldn't let that go. |

I gave up sugar in coffee i'm now using splenda You might want to re-think that switch to 'Splenda' ... http://www.womentowomen.com/healthyweight/splenda.aspx None of the chemical / synthetic / manmade artificial 'sweeteners' have an advantage over the real thing. |

J.A.G., what's your excercise level like? Do you jog, bicycle, work out, etc? How often? You have to take that into account as much as your diet too. The soda, would you drink caffeine free soda or diet soda? If not have you considered tea, or juice? Just some ideas I had for you. I know how hard it is to give up something you love.

The soda, would you drink caffeine free soda or diet soda? If not have you considered tea, or juice? Just some ideas I had for you. I know how hard it is to give up something you love. Ok. Answers...in order...lol My exercise was not very high over the Winter. Now that Spring is here ( or will be shortly ) it will go up because I play golf once a week and will be riding my bike to work rather than driving. One thing that really didn't help my cause is that I am a forklift driver and don't get much movement during the time I am at work. No caffeine free or diet soda. Regular Mountain Dew. Can't get past the aftertaste of diet sodas. To replace the soda, I have been drinking a combination of water, orange juice and iced tea over the last couple of days. It'll take a few days for my system to clear out, but I know I'll be better off for it. I am not all that worried about my caloric intake because I really don't eat all that much and I try to eat relatively healthy stuff. It was more a matter of the fact that I was drinking a LOT of soda every day. Not to mention, I had to pick one vice to give up. Smoking or soda. I chose soda because I will most likely wind up losing weight. That means I'll be able to afford a few pounds when I try to give up smoking. I just knew I couldn't do both at the same time. |
