Good evening.
Its been two weeks since I got sick and where I started not to drink soda or any softdrinks at all. And its been two straights weeks now that I dont drink any softdrink at all even just one sip or gulp. There are instances that food in the house was so tasty and delicious so they bought softdrinks to compliment, but I still resist not to drink and drink water instead.
Nice to know that I could really do it and not to drink softdrink for a long period of time and just drinking water all the time. I am still into it and still not drinking any softdrinks at all and as I can. Better drink water which is more healthy. Its been two weeks now and I am still determine to continue it.

I did the very same a couple of years ago. I drank orange juice in the morning but for the rest of the day it was water. You would be surprised how much weight I lost, how I stopped getting spots and generally felt more healthy. I've slipped in and out of it more recently, drinking water and work but having the odd lemonade in the evening, but I think I'm going well still. Hopefully I'll stop with the lemonade again soon!
But yes, keep it up, I'm sure you feel better already!

Yeah it feels better and healthy so I better continue this. Water is really important for us and in our body so we better drink more water everyday instead of sodas or softdrinks that are selling in the market.

Ardoy, it is always better as not to drink too much soft-drink. It had been a few months i didn't consume any soft-drink. The last time i consume it was on the month of August, when we are celebrating the Independence day in my country. The next trip that i am going to drink soft-drink would be when we are celebrating the coming Christmas and New year.

Yeah its better todrink water than those artificial liquids that are selling in the market that showcase some ingredients that might be harmful in our health in the future. Water is still the best but make sure thar it is clean and safe to drink. Sodas or softdrinks are really tasty but moderation and limits shoud be recommended to avoid any bad effects in the end.

I also like drinking soft drinks. Although I know it is not a healthy drink, but I still like it since it is sweet. I try to drink it less only. When I am in the office, most of the time I just drink water. I set myself free in the weekends and drink the soft drink as a nice treatment for myself. It is already very good that you don't drink the soft drinks for two weeks. I know it is not so easy.

Yeah it is quite not easy since I really like to drink soda or softdrink especially when the food are so delicious and tasty which really compliment it. Good thing that I can resist it now and can control now not to drink soda. I am still willing to continue it since it really has good effect in our body and health.

You have done a great job there. For a person who had always consumed soft drinks, it would be quite hard for the person to not drink them at all for a long period. In your case you were sick which somehow led you to stop drinking soft drinks for all these well. That is a good thing. Because soft drink contains very high amount of sugar and taking them regularly would definitely affect your health. One is putting his or her own health in jeopardy by drinking soft drink often. Drink water instead of soft drink for a better health.

I am not drinking softdrinks also because urine infections. But before, i can consume a 800 ml bottle softdrinks. Today, i am on a water therapy, in order for me not to have infections again. Drinking water will not just hydrated your body but also can make your skin to prevent from drying.

Good job!
I have tried that before and I am still trying myself not to drink softdrinks as well. But, the cravings don't stop so what I do is I drink only a small amount at least once a week. There are weeks that I don't drink softdrinks at all and I agree, water is really much more healthier than soft drinks.

Thanks. Well at least you try it and as you have said it seems that you have already lessen your soda or softdrink intake which is good sign. Water is really beneficial and important to our body so we really have to drink coffee more often.
