Avoiding soda as much as possible, on diet constantly more or less, exception made of one meal a week home and I tend to roll with it at restaurant, still being careful. Fast food is a no go.
Also avoiding coffee for months now, salt for years (no water retention), green/black tea works for me.
I'm not sure what is normal, but since my fiancΓ©e is vegetarian... I "try" to keep it clean as we go to prepare myself to live with her. I'm not the right person to answer this, but once you get used to it, you can pretty much get rid of anything, depends on how much you like soda.
Like anything else I guess, just don't drink gallons (count of sugar cubes per service, forget about aspartame based soda which is as bad in the end).
P.S. : I save the crap for holidays, then I really let go to mess up the whole rest of the healthy diet huh but I used to be a soda addict when I was younger so...

I don't really know how something insipid can be delicious.

I think a study was made that if you drink a can of soda a day for a year, you would gain 10 pounds from that year. I dont know if those were the correct numbers but it was somewhere along those lines.
Anyways I use to drink soda all the time as a kid, but now I just drink water/milk or juice on rare occasions.

I never really drink Soda (or any sweet drink for that matter) unless I get a massive sugar craving which happens like once or twice a month... I hate the feeling it gives me on my teeth =/ Water is the way to go !

I'm allowed to drink soda whenever I want to! In reality I only really drink soda either when I really need a quick energy (sugar) kick or alternatively when I mix drinks. The former is quite rare, it happens about once every second or so months, the later is more common.
When someone actually had the rights to tell me what I could & could not do, in regards to soda drinking, I was, during my pre-teens only allowed to drink soda when my parents wanted me to drink soda, which was during special occasions or when out somewhere. When I got a small job, I was allowed to do what I wanted to do with my money, so my soda consumption went up a tad bit, but not a whole lot.

Well, I used to drink soda much more, but then I discovered water is good too and it doesn't leave aftertaste that makes you want to drink more. Now I drink mainly water, especially when it's cold. When it's hot, I like to drink soda with ice once in a while.

I would say that drinking more than 1 small can per day is not going to be good for your health. I often go weeks without 'soda'. I drink juice/squash/cordial or whatever you call it there. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squash_%28drink%29

Here at my house i can drink soda the whole week, but two of my friends is only allowed to drink soda on the weekends.
Is is more normal to be allowed to drink soda just in the weekend or the whole week?
