You've done what I'm in the middle of TRYING to do. I've been addicted to Diet Coke/Coke Zero for about 15 years now and I've gone weeks without Coke sometimes but then I slip back into my old habbits because the craving of sweetners have become too much. But good on you for finally taking the step towards a healthier and better lifestyle! Hopefully I'm on my way to doing the same...
Just keep in mind that the lemonaid at restaurants is no better than soda. It still comes in giant boxes of syrup ( it's high fructose corn syrup with NO actual lemon in it ) and is hooked up to the machine just like the soda, only it's non-carbonated. I don't drink soda either but for a little sierra mist or the Mexican coke because it's made with cane sugar and not HFCS which is seriously bad. Sugar is bad all on its own, but going to take the lesser of two evils and least go with the one minimally processed. Also: Tea is a great caffeine replacement for me. I have a coffee issue and have just recently relapsed, but dark teas like Earl Grey and Orange Pekoe are delicious. If you have a need for sweet, pick up some honey from a local or farmers market. The honey sold in grocery stores is largely NOT honey, is either pasteurized, or diluted with more dreaded HFCS. I have a divine Tulip Poplar honey that I put in Earl Grey and it is just. . . omg. . . delicious and a perfect treat. Way better than soda. . . I only need soda for booze. << >>
