I haven't had a sip of coke since before surgery, three years ago!

For the record, I feel like I totally am NOT on a diet anymore, for the first time in 30 years, I was always not having something because I shouldn't. I seldom ever had a coke prior to surgery, maybe four or five fountain coke a year. I choose not to have them now, I was told not to. I was not told to not have fried zucchini but I don't, just because. Nothing is for free, without some give and take. I use to feel deprived and guilty all the time, constantly....now, I NEVER feel deprived. Life is much easier, but I still make choices and resist when I need to....less tummy just makes it easier. I'm not sure why the guilt is gone, but it is.

I kicked the habit in December. I think I saw someone say that they've used the Soda Stream flavor bottles to flavor non-carbonated water. I haven't felt the urge, so I haven't tried it myself. I think that not having soda for so long now.. it just wouldn't taste too good.

craving* something*

fat fingers lol

I was a diet pepsi addict. I averaged about 4 a day. When I look back I can't believe it! Anyway, I had surgery in September and it has been easy for me to avoid soda. I did have some regular coke when I had a stomach bug a few months ago - but I did put it in the blender to get the bubbles out so it was flat when I had it.

I have had a few sips here and there with no issues at all. Though I don't drink it often :)

I just don't have enough hours in the day to balance eating and drinking only to waste an hour of it on soda that won't count towards my hydration LOL
