 Stop drinking soda for 3 weeks. It'll be hard at first. You'll need
 caffeine. Make iced tea with lemon. If you're drinking sugared soda,
 stop drinking it and change nothing else, you'll lose weight. And, you
 may feel better overall.

 I was hooked on Diet Coke for years. I hated how it would trigger my
 blood sugar - have a diet coke with lunch and 45-60 minute later, I'd
 get a sweet tooth and get something from a vending machine at work.

 Between that, the supply chain issues around here (I'd see tons of
 cherry coke, vanilla coke, caffeine free diet coke, regular coke and a
 gap where the diet coke used to be) and the cost (Really? $11.99 for a
 12-pack?) I gave it diet coke a while ago. I'll have a fountain soda if
 I get fast food, which is now once a quarter instead of 2-3 times a
 week.
