Soda Pop

I drink 1 to 2 a day. My husband on the other hand, Mountain dew is all he drinks. Sometimes he will drink up to 9 in a day. It is crazy. It is very odd for him to drink anything else.

I used to drink a lot of diet pepsi too. But now I have definitely stopped- especially as I am trying to lose weight. My son used to drink it first thin in the morning but now I do not buy pepsi or any sodas. If he wants it hen he would have to buy it. It is alleged that some people use pepsi to vlrean their battery terminals on their cars and all sorts of other things too.

MMM Soda Pop, every time I call Pop, Soda, I get called American...But I am Canadian, and in Canada you are "supposed" to call Soda, pop. Either way, I used to drink a whole lot more, then I do now. I try to focus on drinking just water lately because before we started messing with nature, that is what we drank, because that is all there was to drink. So, that must be the best thing for us. Thank you for your time, I appreciate you.

Hi Dorann, Since i started my diet--SERIOUSLY, i refrain from drinking soda. water is the best drink for me nowadays plus fruit juice. i seldom drink soda and if possible avoid taking one. i am scared about the though of taking so much sugar for drinking a glass of soda. let's live a healthy life!

I love coke but I also cut down on it. Now I only consume very little with my coffee but still I cant live without it! I also love pepsi but it is very sugary and I sometimes get annoyed by it.

I hardly ever drink sodas. Here we call them fizzy drinks or sometimes pop. There was a discussion once on a housekeeping forum all about using cola to clean the toilet and how they used it in the USA to clean blood from accident scenes, that put me off for life LOL. (not wanting to put you off too but it makes you think) It is the acid content that does it, it acts like vinegar. If it can strip limescale from your toilet bowl(it really works) then what might it do if it is sitting inside you?

I'm pretty addicted to soda myself. I try hard not to drink as much as I used to. I can drink can after can if I'm allowed. I'm trying hard to cut back on it and drink no more than 2 cans a day. I'm trying to drink more water because one, soda is expensive and two it's not that great for your health. I'd prefer to drink more water but sometimes I'm just not interested in water because it has no taste and I need to drink something with taste!

During the winter I drink more cokes, usually at work 2 to 3 cans a day. During the summer I drink alot of water. I guess it is just hotter and the water makes me feel better.

Maybe not on a daily basis, but weekly, I maybe have one or two cans. I don't really drink many sodas because I have had problems in the past with my teeth, and need to go careful.

I would say you are in the majority for people that consume 3 cans a day. Alot of people drink more soda than they should be but it does become addicting. I cut my soda intake alot about 3 months ago when i stop drinking anything with caffine in it. I have tried the pepsi no caffine but seriously its just not the same. Now that i switch to all caffine free soda it doesnt bother me much to go a day or two and now have any soda. When i was drinking caffine soda it made me just want more and more. I think eventually i will make the swtich to all flavored water and no soda but its not easy to give up something youve had so much of your whole life. Good for you for cutting down! WTG

Mine is diet coke. I started in college, where I would have it for breakfast, and after every meals, and even beofre I sleep. At the worst I think I also drank about 6 cans a day. I would be thirsty at the middle of the day, and I would crave for a can. The worst is, I've taught myself to eat something first before drinking. That made everything worse. This year, I vowed to cut down my consumption. I don't buy cans anymore. I buy the big bottles, and I only drink half a cup everytime. Still a lot, but better than before.

I drink mt. dew everyday so I guess you could say I'm addicted. I always have one in the morning and then sometimes with lunch or dinner I will have one as well. I have recently started drinking diet mt. dew from time to time. It doesn't taste as good but it's better for me as I'm trying to watch what i eat and drink.

I used to drink a lot of soda, I would say probably one 2 bottles of 20 ounces a day. I did that for many years, and it really never affected me, my weight was always normal, until one day that I started to feel bad of my stomach, and went to the doctor he diagnosed Irritable Bowel Syndrome, so now he put me in this horrible diet where I can't drink any soda, I really missed it, but now 6 months later, I don't even feel the desire anymore, i got accustomed to don't drink it. But every once in a while I would love to drink a really cold can of soda.

before im addicted.but when i watch in youtube.if you put soda in meat,you will see the maggot there,want to get out in the meat.its so shocking.the maggot it\n your body will come out if you drink more and more soda. i will not drink soda again

I used to drink nothing but Mt. Dew. I could go through a 2 liter a day, or 3 cases of 12 cans in a week. I gave up soda about 4 months ago. Since then I've only had a couple of cokes. I like to have soda if we go out to eat.. I feel like I'm cheating on my diet anyways, so I might as well enjoy my beverage as well. I also like to have soda on nights that we have pizza... again, I'm cheating anyways! I think I've had like 4 coke's in the last 4 months... not terrible at all. I might have some this weekend too when hubby and I go out... but I'm also thinking I'll have a few "stronger" drinks as well... so who knows. The problem I have found is once I have the taste of soda in my mouth, it's hard to go back to water. I do best just staying away from it completely, otherwise one of these days I might decide I like soda so much better than water, and go back to it full time! That would be tragic.

I used to drink soda everyday. coke and pepsi were my favorites. however, when i got diabetes, i stopped drinking soda. you know, soda has lots of sugar.. and too much sugar can lead to diabetes.. if i were you, i would limit my soda intake or better yet stop drinking soda.. consider drinking water and green tea.. both are beneficial to health.. good night!

...Hi dorannmwin, I love Wild Cherry Pepsi, it really is my favorite soda. If one can be addicted to soda, I would say that I am in that category. I love the stuff. The information that I have read about soda, of any kind, is that it destroys your bones, expecially women. I don't remember why it's more destructive to female bones as opposed to male bones, but that is the research. I have tried to limit my intake, but the temptation is very strong and I love the taste. So I go on fighting the good fight but Wild Cherry Pepsi is winning, I'm sorry to say. "o) Take care.

I hardly drink soda unless its free or offered to me. It tastes sweeter when someone else gives it to you for some reason. It's also my way to cut down on it. Nearly drank 2 bottles everyday. And my family has a history of diabetes too.

I like sweets and chocolates, but I don't drink much soda because I don't crave for it, and I don't like it especially when it's not too cold. Besides for me it doesn't totally quench thirst--it just fills me with lots of carbon dioxide and makes me burp often. Anyway, six cans is too much!

I love drinking coke, always two glass per day when it's lunch and dinner time or sometimes 3 when i want to have pleasure xD. My mother say it's not good to drink so munch so i try to resist sometimes :x...
