I used to drink heaps of Coke too, but I hardly touch it now that I know what it can do to my system! Apparently it can dissolve a t-bone steak in a few days, and mechanics use it to clean car engines.

Ewwww!

I crave it, it's crazy. I have been trying to drink more iced tea instead, but cokes are so much more convenient. It's awful, too because I could save so much money if I could stop. I stopped while I was pregnant so it may not be as hard as I think. Thanks!

I used to be a HUGE pop drinker...Now I can't stand the stuff, I really only drink water and I don't miss pop at all! I will occationally have a Minute Maid light Lemon-ade, or a diet A & W root beer...but I gotta have my water!!

I got so used to drinking water that I almost never drink anything else. Coffee in the a.m. water all day. The only time I usually drink soda is if I eat a pizza out. Even at home if I have pizza I have water. There's something about being out eating pizza that I have to have a slice and a Coke.

Of course, there's always Frozen Mudslides.

Sounds like me... at work: Coffee (Cafe Vienna) in the morning, water all day, a Slushy for lunch and for a cocktail it would be Diablo, but those Mudslides are pretty tasty too, but I can't have them a whole lot (chocolate) (diet, ya know) only on special occasions with special friends!!

I NEVER drink water. I can't stand it, I may need to try something flavored. I do notice when I drink water, I feel a lot better, it's like my body craves it. Something about the bland taste that makes me not want it though.

Hotforscott, you could try putting a little lemon slice in it, or a dash of cranberry juice. It gives it just a little bit of flavor. It really makes a difference for me. Water is soooooooo good for you. It helps keep you hydrated, of course, but if you drink a lot of it, it also help keep your skin nice. I notice a big difference if I don't have enough water.

hotforscott · 11-30-2002, 01:43 PM

I will have to try that, thanks!

Dogstar · 11-30-2002, 01:49 PM

Yer welcome...Also, if fresh lemon isn't available, I put a dash or two of lemon juice in it instead...I'm drinking that right now, as a matter of fact, after a nice long walk. I admit to being a total diet Pepsi freak, though...I've read that for every caffeinated drink you consume, you need two glasses of water to rehydrate. Caffeine does dry you out.

i have to go to the grocery store today anyway, I will see what I can find. Does flavored water do the same for you as regular water or is it not the same?

Dogstar · 11-30-2002, 02:08 PM

Flavored water is good, too, but I'm too cheap to buy it

. I don't like the carbonated ones, though. They have non-carbonated ones that are pretty good.

krzycreedbabe · 11-30-2002, 02:47 PM

yea the carbonated water is allright but it tastes more like cheap soda than anything lol..

hotforscott · 11-30-2002, 04:45 PM

great, thanks. that makes sense. i may try a few different kinds, plus the lemon, etc. thanks.

I used to drink tons of pop, but now I can't have corn syrup so I drink a lot of water.
