This past Friday marks 6 weeks with no pop, soda, coke or whatever you like to call those caffinated and carbonated beverages. My goal is 90 days so I’m half way to that. I’ve taken 3 maybe 4 sips of non-caffinated Root Beer, but apart from that I haven’t had anything caffinated. I have had alot of lemonade in various forms. It seems that most restaraunts only sell lemonade apart from pop and tea. I have found a couple that sell Powerade, which is good too. I’ve also drank a number of different juice drinks. My sugar intake is probably only a little less than before.
I have noticed a marginal difference in energy and have lost a little weight. I think at 60 days I’m going to go strickly water for the last 30 days of this little experiment. I haven’t decided if I’ll go back to drinking pop after this or not. I’m sure I’ve saved a little money because I normally bought at least one 12 pack a week of either Mt. Dew or Dr. Pepper. I have bought some 12 packs of lemonade, but not as much as I used to buy of pop. Brandon read somewhere that it’s at the 2 month mark before you really notice a physical difference. We’ll see I guess.
Ah yes, I grew up calling it “pop” too. I sometimes almost forget that…lol.
Good luck with your goal!
no pop! Good job! You take photos too, that’s cool. My mom is a photographer and trained in photoshop. Read my comment in the shawny mac comments!
Dude, pop just won’t taste the same now. It’ll be waay to sugary and just won’t do it for you.
I quit soda for the calories, but I still gotta have me some caffeine! (coffee) :-)
