It's not that hard dude. I grew up drinking practically nothing but soda because it was all I drank. After I realized how disgusting it was I just quit. I maybe have 1-2 a week now at most. Humans need WATER to survive, not carbonated water with high fructose corn syrup and other types of sugars.

That shit isn't good for you either. Aspartame was originally developed as a poison. Not that the relationship between animal poison and toxicity between humans is necessarily correlated, but I'm not drinking that shit.

Aspartame (APM; /ˈæspərteɪm/ or /əˈspɑrteɪm/) is an artificial, non-saccharide sweetener used as a sugar substitute in some foods and beverages. In the European Union, it is codified as E951. Aspartame is a methyl ester of the aspartic acid/phenylalanine dipeptide. It was first sold under the brand name NutraSweet; since 2009 it also has been sold under the brand name AminoSweet. It was first synthesized in 1965 and the patent expired in 1992.
The safety of aspartame has been the subject of several political and medical controversies, Congressional hearings and internet hoaxes since its initial approval for use in food products by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1974. A 2007 medical review on the subject concluded that "the weight of existing scientific evidence indicates that aspartame is safe at current levels of consumption as a non-nutritive sweetener".[3] However, because its breakdown products include phenylalanine, aspartame must be avoided by people with the genetic condition phenylketonuria (PKU).

Soda actually changes the way your body hydrates people who drink a lot of soda are never thirsty, but people who only drink water are always thirsty. I used to drink a ton of soda as well. now that i drink water i cant stand the stuff ill have the occasional sprite but now when i drink pop it just tastes like poison for my body. I also lost like 15 just from stopping drinking soda. Soda is really terrible your body is not supposed to drink that crap.

I only drink tea w/lots of sugar. My grandma used to say "Like a little tea with your sugar do you?" Sugar-less tea tastes horrible to me,but thanx for the idea.

If you have type 2 diabetes, you have more to gain from avoiding sugars and using artificial sweeteners than you can lose to the negative effects of those sweeteners.
Natural sugars are still sugars. Just because something's natural doesn't mean it's safe.

1 cup of unsweetened cranberry juice has more sugar in it than 1 cup of Pepsi.
My grandpa's been diabetic for years, and when he wants to drink juice, he can only drink about 6 ounces at a time.

Lots of people in the south say "pop," it's annoying and sounds redneck as fuck. They also refer to every soda as a "coke."

thats crazy talk.
my cousins in Utah say it all the time though.. just confuses me when i hear it.
Utah is fuckin weird though.. they dont ask you if you want a bag when you buy something.. they ask if you want a sack. "thanks sweety.. i think im covered in the 'sack' department."
