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 cry.gif , 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 mad.gif 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

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.

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.

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.

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!)

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.

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.

I'm like sooo addicted to Starbucks.. and at my age..it's not good drinking tons and tons of expresso.. happy.gif 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.. tongue.gif 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..

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.

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.
