Walsingham Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) Don't drink soda. I drink maybe a can a month now. Feel better for it. Actually, that's a complete lie. I drink soda and lime in the pub, to avoid alcohol. But that's relatively low sugar. Edited November 19, 2013 by Walsingham "It wasn't lies.

I remember when I quit soft drinks, It was pretty awful and pure water made me feel sick in my stomach, but now I feel so much better, especially my teeth. Also my headaches went away and I don't have odd fatigue attacks anymore. The body doesn't need all that blasted sugar.

On the other hand you could do it gradually, like a patch. Cut down the number of sodas per day you drink, try to replace them with healthier alternatives and see how your body responds. Also, stop buying sodas. I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.

Amentep Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 My experience is that doing it gradually just prolongs the problem. Of course everyone is different, but when you're addicted to the caffine or sugar and you're getting a little bit but not enough it just seemed to drag on whereas going cold turkey would be a miserable few days but after that it would veer greatly upward experience wise. At least that's what I had when I tried quitting sodas and eventually did quit. 1 I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet?

Mor Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 The problem is that some people cut down on one thing, supplementing it with another. Fact is you can eat whatever you want, as long as its in the right proportions or if you are willing to work out to get off the extra and there is a simple measurement of your success to know if you are doing alright or deluding yourself. First the mirror(stand sideways) to see if there is extra hanging, and mostly the weight scale. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least that's what I had when I tried quitting sodas and eventually did quit. Thats exactly why I prefer to stop doing / consuming something cold turkey, IMO its less awful if you stay away from it completely instead of torturing yourself with small doses. Completely avoiding exposure to whatever you want to quit taking or doing is in my opinion and experience -contrary to the general opinion- the best and easiest way, but as always, YMMV. (There are addictions that can and will kill you if you quit immediately, but I guess we're not talking about hardcore drugs here. ) Edited December 3, 2013 by Woldan I gazed at the dead, and for one dark moment I saw a banquet.

Mor Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Would post this in funny thread but it is more relevant in here. Just a little thing to add, being fit =/= being "pumped". You don't need to be a jock, and spend hours each day in the gym. Just have some basic self respect/control. For example both of my parents in their late sixties and do 4km fast walk at least once a week. Also at risk of sounding like a fortune cookie: The first step is the hardest, but its getting easier with time. Also finding someone to support or work with you will be huge bonus(even better than music). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
