How do I quit drinking Soda/Pop?!?!

Question

Hi, im 18 and have a bit of a huge muffin top. Prom is coming up in April and I want to lose some weight. I HAVE A HUGE ADDICTION TO DRINKING SODA/POP. My brother told me that once he stopped drinking pop and barely worked out, he lost about 20lbs.

I just want to know some tricks or tips to not drink pop or anything with a lot of sugar!

Answer

I have the same addiction soda is life for me lol... but i did go a month without it i started with 2 sodas a day then cut down to 1 then cit down to none and lost weight pretty quick but then went back to it. It is hard to stop but if you say to yourself you can do it ,it makes it easier

Answer

Just stop buying it! Only buy water bottles. I also like to fill a jug with water, put some lemon and mint leaves in there, it tastes soo good and resfreshing and wakes me up ever time I drink it.

Answer

Try to have infusions or tea instead. Even iced tea but with no or low sugar

Answer

ew soda is gross lol. I never drank it because the carbonation bothered my mouth. but you can try not buying it, and instead buying ice tea, work your way to unsweetened iced tea, and eventually water :)

Answer

Drink water! And dont buy soda at the store. And dont go out to eat very often, start making your food home made! I cant remember the last time i actually drank soda....

Answer

Replace it with sparkling waters! I used to drink 3 mountain dews a day at least, but starting January i decided to make a change. So i stopped and started with flavored waters and such. Just getting something bubbly and flavored will help avoid pop. You can start with one pop a day or one every other day, then keep breaking it down. I quit completely and i miss it soooo much its like a drug lol. But im better off without it!  To me just having something to drink with flavor really helped. I cant just drink straight water.

Answer

You have to have determination. Slowly ease out of drinking soda--start replacing it with something that has a lot less sugar (like, if you go to the store, 20 grams of sugar in 1 BOTTLE, not per serving, would be a good replacement) or try out flavored waters. My dad loves diet soda, but after yapping at him about how bad it was (😂😂😂 I mean, that's a pretty simplified explanation--in a recovering hypochondriac), he started replacing it with other things. Though once in a while, he'll drink a diet Mountain Dew.

Answer

I used to drink it a lot switch to only clear soda which helps a lot then work in more water like for every 1 can or bottle drink a certain amount of water. I havent had soda in over a week

Answer

Unsweetened tea with lemon, cold pressed juices, flavored water

Answer

Just put your mind to it! You have to really want to stop. My New Years resolution in 2014 was to stop drinking soda. And I managed it. Now I only take the occasional sip of my fiancée's soda and it tastes too sweet to me. I don't crave it or anything. Set your mind to it and you can do it!
