for he last theee weeks I haven’t had any kind of sugary drink. Only water. The cravings for cokes have subsided but lately all I’ve wanted is a lemonade.

Before I stopped I drank a coke most days but usually never more than one.


Cokes are one of the worst thing we can put into our body but damn they taste so good

Maybe 3 times a year? Have no idea how people drink it regularly tastes like poison if you havent had one for like 6 months. Just water and the occasional alcoholic beverage here. Also can’t imagine how much more I would weigh.

Roughly once every 2-3 years. Unflavored sparkling water is my reliable goto. Sweet tea, particularly from Chick-Fil-A, = guilty pleasure once or twice weekly.

Only at the movie theater, so maybe twice a year. Water all day and sweet tea most nights for dinner.

Everything you need to know about what pop does to your body can be learned by observing the pop aisle at the grocery store for just a couple minutes. Look for those people that buy multiple cases of pop at a time. Then make note of their size and shape. Yeah...it does that!

If I'm in a restaurant I drink coke/pepsi, bleach water taste like crap to me. Drink bottle water the rest of the time.

Nothing but black coffee, water, and beer for me..... and sometimes a little red bull with my jagermeister....but just a small splash of red bull..... One 8 oz can will get me through an entire fifth.

I do not drink them but I married a Kentucky girl and she lives off of them. There is no way you can get her to break the habit.

I drink water, coffee and ice tea in that order.

I get a craving for a Coke about once a year. Generally speaking soft drinks are too sweet for me.

The only soft drink I ever drink is Coke, and at my peak I've only ever drank maybe as much as a couple of 16 oz. bottles a week. I've got a friend who has the mutant ability to continually inhale Mountain Dew as effortlessly as most people do oxygen, though. Once, at a card game tournament at the local comic shop, myself and a number of other people had the honor of witnessing him single-handedly take down a twelve-pack in a little under two hours. Dude doesn't just "Do the Dew" -- he hosts raging all-night orgies for it. ;)

I had at least one little carton of chocolate milk every single school day until I was around 17, but for most of my life, I've mostly ever just drank water, unsweetened tea, orange juice, and lemonade.

By the way, just to brag: in 41 years of having teeth, my total number of cavities = zero.

One or two a month. Usually a Diet Coke or Dr. Pepper. Otherwise I drink water.

Don't drink coffee and never liked tea so Cokes are my only source of caffeine.

I drink one can in the morning and one with dinner. Coke Zero or Diet Dr Pepper. Rest of the time it's water, beer, apple juice, and bourbon.

I do have a weakness for fountain Mtn Dew though so about once or twice a month I'll pick one up from a gas station.

I drink 2-3 cokes a week.

I'll get sucked into drinking more if I have a heavy drinking night. It's my post-drunk recovery beverage.

Diet Dr. Pepper is my one bad habit. I'm trying to cut back but it is harder than a wedding pecker.

When I was a kid, we were only allowed to drink soft drinks on the weekend at lunch, and that tradition has stuck. We drink those 9 oz. cans - and usually have one each per weekend. A coke just seems to go great with a dog or a sandwich. Sprites go well with pizza.

Water, tea, coffee, alcohol. Once in a while OJ or a Vitamin Water.

So glad I never got on the soda train. Got enough vices.

A coke once every few weeks or so but 2 days in a row for some reason last week. Bourbon is about the same schedule but always neat.

One 12 oz Mountain Dew every Friday with lunch. One more on Saturday. Maybe 3-5 more random ones a month if I go to a Cats game or movie.

Water, coffee or milk the rest of the time.

I'm not much of a drinker, but when I do it's usually either good bourbon on ice with a splash of water or cheap bourbon and Sprite.

I'm a recovering soda addict. In my college days and 20s I probably drank 3 cases of Dew a week. Cut way back in my 30s when I could tell it was making me fat.

When you say cases I hope you’re just talking about a 12 pack and not a 24 or 36 pack. Just 3 12 packs a week is over 5 a day.

How cheap? Bourbon whisky and what brand. I do the same occasionally and tonight is one of those nights. Military Special out of the Class VI on post. About $16.00 a half gallon or so.
