how to stop..., drinkin cokes and stuff Options

[im2hott4u7161]

Well, when i was in the 3rd grade (7th now) i got really sick and was in the hospital and didnt feel good at all , i didnt even feel like eating so 4 like 3 weeks i hardly ate anything, and during that time i lost A LOT of weight. I was so skinny, and so i drank a lot of cokes to gain mah weight back when i was out of the hospital and feeling better again, but now i weight more than i want to i weigh 108 and i want to loose some weight.
My mom told me that i could stop drinkin cokes and drink more water and it'd help more than anything, b/c i already exercise daily and work out so thats not needed,
but the problem is that i'm addicted to caffiene and cokes and drinks like that
so do yaw have any ideas of how to stop drinkin cokes

[inthemudhole]

Don't buy any?

[runforfun529]

^^^ Just tell your mom not to buy any. Then you won't have any problems

[inlonelinessidie]

Quit buying them and just cut cold turkey. Keep your eye on the prize. Not hard, trust me, you just have to have self control. Drink healthy juices if you want flavour in your drinks.

[lilJdawg]

don't buy any. i heard that if you have cravings wait ten minutes because you can control if you want to stop drinking it or not.

[dragyn]

Drink tea.

I know it sounds weird, but I was having the same problems.

Just find a type of tea you like, and drink that instead of soda's.

It doesn't make you more thirsty than you were to begin with, like cokes do, and it's just water with flavoring anyways.

Also, it helps to have small goals for your weight and the way you look.

For instance, if you wanna lose 10 pounds, try aiming for 1 pound at a time, it's a lot less intimidating, and more realistic.

[leeniex3]

drink water ^^v think of soda as a bad thing .. because i heard its .. bad l0lz i forgot what i heard but its bad heheh <3

[hi_Loser]

dont buy any. dont drink any.

have some will power.
and some self control.

good luck.

[jennyjenny]

Coke is gross.
You can always buy Diet Coke it you want it THAT much...

[azn hunni xox]

Aw hmm.. just think about... each can of coke you drink, is 9 cups of sugar... hmm... and besides, it just dehydrates you even more... Hmm, try healthy juices instead? And drink a lot of water too... (I'm not sure if that really helps... but good luck!)

[jr0h]

just try to get yourself liking some other healthy drink. like juice. try other drinks out.

[sarasmile2009]

you could start by drinking only diet cokes. then, slowly break away from your caffine adiction by drinking more water everyday and less diet coke. it seems corny, but it works.

[shortiiex]

lol....i thought you were talking about cocaine.....

[angel-roh]

drink orange juice and get used to it by eating a lot of fruit, oranges.

or you can tell your parents not to buy any soda for you to drink. it worked for me.

[*Weird addiction*]

lol...just stop buying 'em good luck

[mai_z]

stop buying them, then replace it with something healthy, like water or tea

[kat29]

DON'T buy it then you can stop=)

[angel-roh]

by the way how tall are you? you're not like those people who has anorexia, right? hope you're not trying to be THAT skinny

[swe3ttemptasian]

I'm like sooo addicted to Starbucks.. and at my age..it's not good drinking tons and tons of expresso.. but I just cut down the menu to anything non-expresso at Starbucks.. like hot chocolate.. vanilla cremes.. and etc.. and it j/ replaced it from all the espresso.. but I just think you should change slowly.. not just go to water.. lol.. it's hard to change quick enough to be able to withstand an addiction.. maybe go to.. any fizzy type of drink.. sparkling water? or something like that..or a diet drink..then j/ take out the fizz part after..see how it goes..

[im2hott4u7161]

NO! Not Cocaine. And no I dont want to be that skinny! I just wanna loose a little bit weight, not look anoerexic

[stephenmatthewg9...]

Tell your mom to stop buying it for you, keep working out, and.. uhh drink juice or water? Clicky---> <3 <---Clicky

[unfortunatekiwi]

narrow down the amount you drink daily. then...finally...illiminate it completely. or as other people have said, try another drink. i heard that if you stop drinking coke for 3 months (and you drink up to 3 cans daily) that you'll lose like...13 pounds without changing anything else in your diet or how you exercise.

[xo_rock]

OMG I HAVE YOUR PROBLEM...
once you start drinking them, you become addicted..i know how you feel..and its really hard to get off of them..

[rueyaroo]

I NEVER drink coke... or sprite or anything like that.. cause its unhealthy..
oh yeah, since my oLD diet i quit drinking coke and lost 20 pounds....then i gained it back..and got 1 inch taller............ so i started my diet again for the past few days i lost 7 pounds

[sweetlyz]

if you feel like you want a soda, grab a bottle of water instead. i used to love soda before, it was all i ever drank. but then i started drinking water, i would bring a bottle of water to school everyday .. it`s all i`ll ever drink now -- and iced tea -- plus its healthier in a way since it flushes out all the toxins or whatever.

[jambaJUICE]

108? 7th grade.
Fat ass? Hell no.

You shouldn't try to lose weight at 7th grade.
I say, load up on the Diet Cokes, and drink 2 instead of 1 Regular Coke

[*bright eyes*]

yeah, like everyone else said just stop drinking it.

i gave it up for lent
and after those 40 days
i really didn't want it anymore, i didn't like it.

but i drank it anyway
and i like it again

anyway
point is
stop drinking it
haha

[Skyline Drive]

try drinking juices ;]

[xj_liana_tx]

drink water, try to get yourself addicted to more healthy beverages, eat more chinese food

[dani41790]

uhhh just try not to buy any? btw y do wanna lose weight? 108 isnt even alot..

[Mireh]

Well, when i was in the 3rd grade (7th now) i got really sick and was in the hospital and didnt feel good at all , i didnt even feel like eating so 4 like 3 weeks i hardly ate anything, and during that time i lost A LOT of weight.

so do yaw have any ideas of how to stop drinkin cokes

...you think 108 is heavy?

...OSDIGHdoighsogh. HAHAHAHA.

[mzawesome]

dont buy ne and just think if u keep it up you'll achieve your goal

[FLIPxADDICTION]

drink a nasty brand of coke and hopefully you'll start

[__PASS10NAT3]

drinkk sumthin else.. like uhh... iono.. juice??.. lols.. <3

[*salcha*]

tell your mom/friends to steer you away from it.
and drink healthy juices or water

[Animelover113]

what i do to stop drinking coke, is drink carbonated water with a little sweetness to it. trust me, soda is not good for your body. or you can drink seltzer if you like it. or, you could drink tea, which alot of people said. also, i think 108 is a very light weight. dont worry about your weight at all, you're too young....you shouldnt think about losing weight at all because if you dont eat properly and try to lose weight, you're not gonna grow at all and you're not gonna be all that healthy. trust me on that. in 7th grade, my weight was about 120-125. that's like the average weight.....that's all that i can suggest.....

[my_sunshine]

well, here`s my advice ..

if you`re trying to cut down on soda, i suggest that you think about your teeth. it`s strange but, i haven`t had soda in almost 2 months (OMG) and i`ve been able to get through it by thinking about my teeth because soda makes your teeth yellow .. so yeahh .. strange thought :P

but, to lose weight, in general, maybe you can try cutting down on junk food and, you can save money by doing that too :D

i don`t know those are just my ideas

[llpurpleskyll]

how about drinking some tea?

[charanjust4yu]

diet coke........then graduall stop

[Looow]

Yeah.. I agree with claudia.. tea

[angelshortipnai]

stop buying coke and find a juice u like and just start drinking that or just drink water

[xkimlaura]

drink less and less coke and more and more water daily. that got me off my fiendish ways for coffee =P

[angelrevelation]

drink juice... snapple's the best! and like everyone else said, don't buy coke

[UrF4vL!pGl0Z...]

Well, totally stopping isnt the answer (wait wait I'll explain)
You should really start cutting back. Little by little. then kick the addiction to the curb!
so say
Monday : 2 cokes (or w/e your daily amount is)
Tuesday: Coke and a half.
Wednesday: one coke
Thursday: 1/2 a coke
Friday: Drink water!!

[iheartsimba]

you just have to loser the ammount taken every day gradually. count how many you drink everyday and continue to lower it

[c0oki3_m0n$tah]

.this quote might help you..."hard is for now, pride is forever" if you successfully quit now, you'll be proud of yourself forever! try not to buy any coke, and drink other stuff instead..healthy stuff like fruit juice and stuff...

[avalon*]

nooo don't drink so much coke! it's so bad for your teeth..it decays them. ANYHOW. yeah..just don't buy any..it's better to keep the temptation out of your house. and if you're at school and feel like buying some, get your friends to yell at you if you buy coke..lol.

[zbrittanyz]

Is coke the only thing you drink? Because it mught be a combination of things. Just try and eat and drink healthy- you know, that 5-a-day pyramid they push in health class and lots of water. But you shouldn't worry about your weight unless your doctor says it's a major health risk.

[Trolling]

Sounds like your addicted to the caffine... I rarley drink sweets now... You just gotta wean yourself off it

[lilphoenix]

It's only your mind that can't quit.
You think you HAVE to have it.

So don't say, 'Oh I can't quit... I HAVE to drink coke everyday.'
You're just basically saying that you're weak.

The other problem?
You drank COKE to gain weight. Shouldn't done that.
Dark liquids [coke, dr. pepper, etc.] can burn a hole in your stomach.
That's not just the caramel coloring.

[edit]
108, that's not healthy.
That's UNDERWEIGHT for regular folks, with the except of a few others.

1 more thing, Snapple isn't good for you either.

You can drink these liquids, just limit it.

[--x who0ps]

soda is bad for your teeth, it like burns off that protective covering or something. but root beer does it the least

[*xcaitlinx*]

like everyone said...dont drink any. theres nothing else you can do. unless u want to be a psycho and go to a shrink and talk to him/her about this "issue".
