HELP I WANT SODA

Can anyone help me to fight this craving.  I drink more and more water but I see it at work, with friends, and I WANT IT!

Hey there, I hate to tell you this you just have to be strong lol, dont give in to those craving it will go away. I was the same way after surgery i just had to be strong and pray lol. TRY Crystal light peach tea flavor in some frpzen water i found that helpful for me. Kay.

weak ... me  and if i can do it you can hang in there sunshine... no soda yet..

Im having the same problem, OMG! its been driving me nuts, I see everybody with a nice ice cold glass of coke or mountain dew and I wont to cry . Then I think about that those things are what put me here to begin with, so I pray to God to take away my cravings for it. Im hanging in there and it is hard almost harder than when I quit smoking. Hang in there be strong and pray pray pray. Hugs

I, too, have been caught lovingly looking at a ice cold class of Coke I did find some Snapple Diet Lemon tea that I really enjoyed...which is odd 'cause pre-op I probably would have thought it was gross.  It helps me get thru those Coke 'needs'. Susan

I gave in and had a drink of my husband's diet coke and it just isn't good anymore.  I think if you tried it now you wouldn't like it anymore.  I drank diet coke up until the day of my surgery...I was a cokeaholic.  I just knew I'd never be able to give it up.  But I don't even want it anymore after I had a sip of my husbands.  It was very strong!  Hang in there it will get easier.   

You will find that if you spend a few weeks away from the coke, you won't like it when you get your hands on one.  I have gone from a six coke a day habit to none.  If I can do it, you can--trust me. One suggestion...Aquacal--a company out of Atlanta sell the BEST flavored waters.  When you freeze them they are the BOMB!! Try the Mandarin (sp) Orange.  OMG--it's so good. Good luck to you. Ingrid
