amymom replied: Good For you  Keep it up. I used to drink loads of Coca-Cola. And did quit as well. So I understand. Keep letting us know how you are doing.
Alice replied: I guess you've already tried Caffeine Free Pepsi???
HAng in there!!
MommyToAshley replied: Good for you! Keep it up, you can do it!
I quit cold turkey when I found out I was PG. The caffiene withdrawals were bad for a few days, but I did better than I thought I woujld. I wish I had never started drinking that stuff again. I am just not as disciplined to do it on my own, being PG was a big motivator to stop, I guess.

b&bsmom replied: Keep up the good work. I haven't drank a lot of soda since I was pg. I do drink a lot of ice tea but since being pg I drink mostly decaf. Good luck and hang in there

I like pepsi, but like im addicted to water, i have to have 1 glass of ice cold water everyday, is it possible you can crave water?!

Would that we were all addicted to water!!! I'm a coffee addict.
Insanemomof3 replied: Good luck. I don't think I could do it. LOL I have to have my Diet Pepsi everyday...BUT. They just started putting splenda in Diet Coke, if they do that to my soda, I will be quitting that addiction too.  I hate splenda. 
Hope you can make it though! I could not even quit my smoking. If you can quit the soda thing, then maybe I will try the quit smoking thing too. hehe kinda like if you can do it so can I? hehe

Definitely!! I am totaly addicted to water! I never go anywhere without a bottle, and drink about four litres a day! You're lucky if you're only craving one glass
And Bri, congrats on your decision to quit! We're all here for you!! Have you tried making the switch to water (even though I know its not the same thing) I tell you, the difference is unbelievable!!
This post has made me think, I can't remember the last time that I had pop like Pepsi or whetever!  xx

Good luck and keep up the good work

A&A'smommy replied: OMG I'm sorry I missed this post I just haven't been posting a WHOLE lot.. anyway how are you doing today? I know what you mean about being addicted its SOO hard... have you tried treating yourself to one or two diet pepsis a day.. I try to that so i won't feel so bad
My2Beauties replied: Keep up the good work you can do it. I swore off caffeine for a week after I went to the hospital that last time with that UTI, guess what I am drinking as we speak - a Dr pepper I have no shame!
3_call_me_mama replied: WTG Brianne! Kep up the good work:)
MissyKay2005 replied: Glad you have made the choice to give it up Soda is not good for us at all. Diet is even worse. I know staying away from caffine can be hard at times. Recomend coffe with very littel cream and maybe a dab of splenda if you can't stay away from it at all (caffine). Keep up the good work!!!!
Josie83 replied:
I didn't know that! How is diet worse? xx
Kaitlin'smom replied: You can do it, and cutting back on those with the calories will help you shed some extra LBS (if you need to), as long as your not replacing them. I know when I switched from reg to diet I lossed 20lbs in 4 months, now I dont drink that much pop at all anymore usually 1 a day, if that and I try and go for the caffee free ones, diet also of course.
keep up the good work
