Health Benefits When You Stop Drinking Soda. If you can learn how to stop drinking soda, you’ll enjoy a number of benefits. Research suggests that overconsumption of sugary drinks is associated with weight gain, insulin resistance, and diabetes. Health experts recommend that we cut back on sweetened soda (and other sugary drinks) to improve our health.I hated myself and my body. The only thing that made me feel better was eating and drinking soda.
I would feel ashamed and embarrassed of my weight, eat a tasty meal with a cold soda.“There’s very good evidence that if you’re going to drink regular soda, you’re better off drinking diet,” says Dr. Mozaffarian.According to Malia Frey, a weight loss expert writing on About Health, dropping a daily large Coca-Cola from McDonald’s completely (if you drink about one per day) would result in reducing your annual calorie intake by over 200,000 calories — or about 60 pounds — in one year. Replace that soda with water and overcome obesity.
Sugary beverages such as soda have contributed to the decline of our health. They have virtually no nutritional value and a lot of calories. Many people have turned to soda for an energy boost, but the dangers of consuming soda on a regular basis outweigh any benefit you might receive from the caffeine.Look for caffeine -free soft drinks, and gradually decrease the number of caffeinated drinks you have each day as you work toward kicking the soda habit completely.

Excessive sugar and calorie intake leads to weight gain and other metabolic issues like high blood pressure. These metabolic changes in turn can make it harder to burn fat and lose weight.

Quit Drinking to Lose Weight If you quit drinking to lose weight, the number of calories you save will depend on the number and types of drinks you typically consume. For example, if you’re a male who falls under the definition of moderate drinker, your two drinks per day may add anywhere from 300 to 800 calories to your daily totals.Removing diet soda from your daily diet will certainly bring positive health effects. Although the studies related to diet soda are still being conducted, there is enough data to highlight the most important benefits of staying away from this type of drink and replacing it with water or unsweetened iced tea.
I had tried to quit soda before, but always came back to it after a week off. But as I was about to turn 28, my body was giving me warning signs of its own that I needed to change my habits.Sure, you know that soda is laden with sugar and blended coffee drinks are weight-gain bombs just waiting to happen, but even just a bit of cream.

I was a coca cola drinker. I stopped cold turkey and went straight to club soda. Now I have the occasional coca cola when I can’t do better but my first choice would be club soda or sparkling water
Only drink water, green tea and normal tea these days. Feel so much better for it!
I easily get hot when I’m outside, even when it is cold like below zero. I stopped drinking soda for health reasons a couple of month ago since april. I feel less hot when I’m outside, I don’t get sweaty as usual. I lost approximately 6.7 pund (3kg) and will hopefully lose more.
My stomach felt weird in the beginning and I got more tired. It has even out by now.
I’m 6 ft and 276 pounds,I’m trying to get in shape but gotta kick soda to the curb
Only solution other than water is.. 100 percent fruit juice at least you know the sugar is fructose.. not the best but far better than all the rest…
Hey there Doc.
I would like to hear if you have made a video on someone who eats a regular diet along with diet sodas.
Are they better for me than Regular Coke and regular Pepsi just by what is in them?
Me watching this while drinking my 3rd can of Dr Pepper today ������
Because Native Americans are very prone to getting diabetes (a lot of my immediate family members are/were pre-diabetic), I made the decision when I turned 19 to not drink soda, I’m 24 now. I’ve noticed the longer you go without it the less you want to have it lol
this is great! thank you, I’m loving sprite right now and need to quit. great tips
Stop drinking soda only about 5 days ago but I already feel better during the day (probably because I’m drinking more water)
I haven’t really drink pop for so much years since i think i stop drinking pop at 13 years old, i honestly agree they sure ain’t good for anyone
To have in my opinion.
That’s a lie bc I drink water everyday like 40 water bottles a day and I’m not skinny and my face is not clear but it is smooth
Havent had a drink of soda since September 2019 and I plan on keeping it that way. Once you get past 60 days you dont even feel urges, it only becomes a choice if you want to go back.
Start drinking Sams cola or RC it taste awful and makes your stomach ache. Sorta like flat Shasta!
Kudos for the Video! Apologies for chiming in, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you ever tried Saankramer Life Card System (Sure I saw it on Google)? It is a smashing exclusive guide for learning how to stop drinking minus the normal expense. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my friend Sam finally got excellent success with it.
I always thought diet soda is dumb. Sugar is a part of soda. So…how can there be a “diet” soda? To my logic, it always seemed stupid. I am glad more people are being informed about the effects of drinking too much diet soda, other drinks and food that is harmful to the body IF consumed a lot.
Maybe it’s cuz I’m thirsty but carbonated lemon/lime sounds so good right now (she says at 12am lol)
I do occasionally have a Cola when at the cinema or if I order a burger, but it’s maybe once every two to three weeks. There is however a soda I really like that can be found occasionally here in Ireland that has about 160 calories per bottle. The sugar content is not as high as Cola, but it definitely is something I only should treat myself with every couple of days or so. My problem is chocolate more so than sodas. I’m trying to focus on a high quality chocolate that isn’t as addictive. One or two pieces usually satiates the craving, whilst I could quite easily eat 1000 calories worth of dairy milk chocolate or some other mass produced milk chocolate in one sitting.
to me it was pretty easy to quit, i went with no problem directly to carbonated water, i drink at least 3l a day.
THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH. Don’t have idea of how much you had helped me with this video.
1. Lower high blood pressure
2. 20% likely to develop chronic heart disease
3. improved brain function
4. More natural energy
5. Stronger bone development
6. Improved kidney health
7. Decrease breast, prostate cancer, obesity, etc.
I was a diet soda addict few years ago and it was SO hard giving it up until i gained so much weight around my waist and belly which i never used to have before! that was my cue! i started by just reducing my daily dose and going for water and smoothies till i completely quit:)
i also found out that when i was eating greasy unhealthy food i’d crave diet soda after.. i changed it all:)
now i’m following clean eating plans most of the time and my waist line is almost back to normal and my health is just so much better!:)
as a Russian thats my opinion. Don’t drink coke. Drink vodka. Vodka is healthier than coke. You can search it. And this is why we are not fucking fat gamburger and we are tough!
I guess I just don’t get the appeal of diet sodas. They’ve always tasted pretty gross to me, especially the ones with splenda.
a couple weeks ago i stopped drinking soda and it feels great! i also stopped drinking sugary drinks, i only drink water now and it feels good
He’s wrong anyway he’s completely bull shitting you just look up the ingredients none of the ingredients cause what he stated
I was a huge diet soda addict! I would drink it 4 days a week and I couldn’t live without it. But I decided to stop with it, knowing how addicting and bad it is for me. So I try to drink zevia every now and then when I want to have something carbonated. I cant even enjoy regular diet soda anymore. Great video! Its not easy, but if we want we can do it! =)
I’ve never been a fan of soda but my girlfriend is a Dr pepper addict. she can’t do without all the sugar and the caffeine. how to overcome this???
Haven’t had soda since summer 2015 �� And im not even fat, i just dont drink it
Soda means carbonated water, not soft drinks. Maybe people in the US drank too much of the latter to understand the difference.
I don’t think soda at all (well I drink it very occasionally when I eat) and honestly I never miss it.
I stopped drinking soda for months now and I just drunk 2 sips and now my stomach burns����♀️
For me, if I drink an excessive amount of water in a daily basis, or having such as 3-4 bottles of water in one sitting, it’ll reduce craving, and everytime I’d get one I’d down water instead. I’d assume this is due to it cleaning out all the technical stuff causing the craving, usually after a week of no soda once I drink it again itll taste horrible if I drank nothing but water throughout that week
When he said one ��/can a day. I was like hah I drink three sodas a day maybe four.
Great Video clip! Apologies for butting in, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you ever tried Taparton Impressive Look Takeover (do a google search)? It is a good one of a kind guide for Getting a bikini ready body in 60 days minus the normal expense. Ive heard some super things about it and my old buddy Taylor after a lifetime of fighting got great results with it.
I cut down on the diet mountain dew. I used to drink 2 liters a day. I still have it here and there. Drinking more filtered water. Braun.
This is an inspirational vid I started Feb 2 2020 and hope to be here Feb 2 2021 ima make an edit to this comment when I come back. Wish me luck.
I’m quitting pop and tobacco at the same time and that’s rough.
We all must stay away from all types of soda. Replace with water. Over the long run, heavy soda consumption with greatly contribute to our premature death in some shape or form.
Damn I drink at least 1 litre of Pepsi a day maybe 2 L.. I’m about 70 lbs over weight and I need to stop drinking “pop”! I’m gonna start at the end of the month to stop drinking pop I’m just ween myself off for the next 15 days.. wish me luck
I used to be a sprite zero addict. No idea how I quit haha, I just don’t drink it anymore. Great video though, I might show this to my mother, who loves coca cola zero.:)
Appreciate Video! Forgive me for chiming in, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you tried Taparton Impressive Look Takeover (google it)? It is a great one of a kind guide for Getting a bikini ready body in 60 days minus the headache. Ive heard some decent things about it and my friend Sam got cool success with it.
I kid you not I was smoking around 70-100 cigs a day and drank around 2liters of coca cola as well. And the fucking soda addiction is harder to break than my cig one. Been smoke free since a year, but soda is way harder to quit for me.
I would like to quit diet soda but I get awful headaches and lack focus. Do you have any suggestions for that?
Nice Video clip! Apologies for chiming in, I am interested in your opinion. Have you heard the talk about Taparton Impressive Look Takeover (do a search on google)? It is an awesome one of a kind guide for Getting a bikini ready body in 60 days without the headache. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my mate after a lifetime of fighting got cool results with it.
I decided to stop drinking soda almost a week now. It was wreaking havoc on my body and energy. I already have more energy.
I use to be hooked on diet coke. I think it was the caffeine in it since I don’t drink coffee whenever I would go a day without soda I would get a headache. After drinking soda almost every day of my 20s I quit cold turkey about a year ago. I found that drinking ice cold water was just as refreshing and now I pretty much only drink water.
I’m going through withdrawal nowwwwwwwww,
HEADACHES
HEADACHES
HEADACHES
No more Rootbeer
No more coke
I stopped drinking cokes a month ago and still feel horrible. I have absolutely no energy still what so ever.
Appreciate Video! Sorry for the intrusion, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you thought about Saankramer Life Card System (search on google)? It is a smashing exclusive guide for learning how to stop drinking without the normal expense. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my mate finally got great success with it.
Many thanks, I been tryin to find out about “diet to bulk up muscle” for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across Senictoria Bulking Paradise (search on google )? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my buddy got excellent success with it.
I’m not sure but,if anyone else needs to find out about can sugar free gum cause stomach problems? try Jayceren Fat Result Method (should be on google have a look )? Ive heard some super things about it and my colleague got excellent success with it.
I decided to stop, or avoid, other drinks than water. Why? Because I’m afraid of developing diabete or obesity. Like, really afraid. Because in general I already love sugar, I love desserts. I love milk too. Well, I’m slightly overweight, one or two kgs. However, I thought that, maybe drinking water instead of everything else might be good for my body and actually makes me lose weight!
Zac perna said diet sodas are good for diets and I always listen to people that actually look and sustain healthy lifestyles
Just curious could these numbers be a bit misrepresented? I say this because most people (at least that I know) only drink diet pops because they’re overweight or unhealthy. That being said, is it probable that these people were already at a high risk level for the problems you have mentioned well before they started drinking diet pop?
I cringe when they showed the baby drinking a pop. My niece and nephews don’t do that. They call it the “adult drink” lol
Girl you need some sugar or something to spark this dam video up����♀️ even Kool aid had a little red man that yells at them to drink it hell if you want us to stop drinking soda spice this shit up with a fine ass man making a glass of water or something or just the tone in your voice girl dam
There a sources to weight loss. Diet Coke isn’t healthy, yeah, but you can always go to the gym. a lot of foods contain ingredients that lead to weight gain. It’s not just soda. #addictofdietcoke4L
Actually this is somewhat false. There are numerous long term studies that show long term diet soda drinkers tend to have higher risks for heart attack or stroke and they tend to be larger. Now there is nothing in diet soda that seem to suggest it would cause any of these problems. So it may be food choices but it’s far better to simply drink water or natural tea or coffee vs drinking artificial soda.
Love the tips, however my problem is I am trying to add Water to my routine but I always go back to Tea. Do you have any tips for that?
Too much of anything is bad for you. Sure soda provides no real benefits to health, but it’s a nice treat to have every once in a while.:P Only drinking water is just crazy to me. No alcohol, juice, tea, sparkling water, soda? Come on, people, live a little. �� At least drink some mineral water or sparkling water on some days. Get that bubbly goodness in you.
Ok, today I am going to try to stop drinking Diet Coke. Cross my fingers that I can do it!! Thanks for the advice!!!
I had a Great-Grandfather that said it was nothing more than candy in a can.
Truth is,.. it is more like a chemical cocktail. Nothing good about it. Life shortening.
I drink soda every ounce in a while instead one or two a day when I was a teen. Now I only drink on special occasions like celebrating Independance Day. My next biggest challenge is quitting caffeine. It’s tough.
Winner of a video, I have been researching “keys to bulking up” for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of Senictoria Bulking Paradise (just google it )? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my m8 got cool results with it.
Thanks for the Video clip! Sorry for the intrusion, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you heard about Saankramer Life Card System (search on google)? It is an awesome one of a kind product for learning how to stop drinking without the headache. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my close friend Aubrey after many years got astronomical success with it.
I’m watching this video because I quit soft drink today and I’m sticking by it.
I recently quit drinking soda, and I have felt better since then.
Cheers for the Video! Forgive me for the intrusion, I would appreciate your opinion. Have you researched Dinanlinson Shrinking Body Approach (probably on Google)?

Thats the woese. Exscuses. I drink soda sometimes. There nothing wrong with me lol
I like her message, but not the delivery of it. She seems so unenthusiastic!
He claims that he’s a doctor or a professor I’m not ether one of those but what I do know what he dose not know is yes for some people not all who live off of diet soda is gonna have a stroke or a heart attack. What he didn’t mention as a doctor that it’s really all have to do with caffeine in the soda now every one knows that too much caffeine may kill some people plus it depends on your health condition. And as for diet soda it’s really good for diabetics but don’t believe diet soda is gonna make you more hungry it’s all in the mind cause after you finish a meal and wash it down with a diet soda.Once your full and control your mind for not having any other cravings you’ll be fine.
I will have to try some of these drinks. I’m trying to cut out soda. Tfs
Dani, I completely agree with baby steps. When my husband and I first met (i was a dietetic student), he was drinking several servings of regular soda and was about 70 lbs overweight. I took a baby steps with him, switching to diet soda, reducing soda, increasing water, etc. Within a couple of years, he was 70 lbs lighter.
Thank you for sharing!! Ive never been addicting to diet soda at all but i know a friend who drinks way too much lol
Start drinking 2 liters to a gallon of water a day and you will start to drink less and less soda
I also used to be addicted to diet soda. I got a water bottle dispenser and had high quality water delivered to my house. I figured it was probably cheaper than all the soda I was drinking and it was good tasting. That worked for me.
I’m sooooo happy to say I am not much of a soda drinker…I have a soda every blue moon. I like what you said Dani boutique not drinking calories and that’s one of the reasons I stay away for the most part from sodas. Lately to get the fizzle I love I’ve been drinking sparkling water with lemon flavor or mandarin orange flavor.
Could she be more indifferent while delivering her “message?”
It would have been better if I seen this kind of “Yamzοkο Weebly” (Google it) a couple of years back. I dropped 12 pounds in 3 weeks so far. However I work out once or twice a week, and eat right. The outcome shown to me is fantastic. I surely endorse the item, wish it works as good for you because it really does for me..
I lost about 15 lbs in 2 months just from drinking the average amount of water every day and ditching soda. Didnt even exercise that much I’d go on a run every now and then. But most the time I was playing video games or outside playing basketball
thanks for the tips. I drink way to much soda a day, close to 2L (diet only). hoping that quitting soda will help me lose weight too.
I am actuaIly quite lean and work out regularly but I just realised I have a problem when I got the urge to drop a harribo giant strawb in my glass of coca cola and drank the whole thing and kept refilling the glass with coke. Then I ate the strawbs. When she mentioned a relation to the events in your life, it made sense as I have been very stressed lately, and generally try to ignore the toll it takes on my mental health. Sugar has helped alot. My journey to recovery and fixing this sugar crave begins with this video. Thanks for the advice!
why is everyone critiquing her delivery? not everyone has to be enthusiastic or be able to fulfill your entertainment needs.
She gave helpful, good recommendations and the video was only three minutes. you have 70 more years to live now, enjoy.
I haven’t had a carbonated drink in 10 years.
I have been known to down some Flor de Cana in coconut water or in Hibiscus tea tho 😉
I’m nearly certain I’m addicted to the caffeine more so than the sugar.
I can go with out soda if I take a caffeinated pain reliever for the DRAMATIC headache.
I cannot quit the soda though, pills hurt my stomach so much more than coke or Pepsi. Help!
She wasn’t reading that. Zero passion. Nothing a soda drinker wants to hear.
I wish there were a drink which felt like you were drinking soda but actually was good for health
After I stop drinking soda,juices,monster RedBull etc witch I was drinking 95% every day… my first two weeks were ugly, my body started feeling the impact of not having sugar,caffeine etc, I was feeling weak,low energy,I was cold,sweating etc this is my 4 week without consuming anything else but just water
how boring it was, these 3 minutes were like a boring 3 hours movie
Perrier IS PERFECT. I became addicted to it after being off of soda for two years. The smaller cans are great too, because I usually find I couldn’t drink more than one serving. Great suggestions
I’m a soda addict too, drinking infused water has helped me a lot. Tastes sweet and is completely natural. But it’s tough to give up soda, did cut back, but haven’t quit.
I’ve never drank soda at all, sorta. When I first tried it I spit it out immediately.
Just 170 liters of soda? I used to drink 2 liters of diet pepsi a day meaning 730 liters a year give or take a few.
i craved pop so much when i first cut it out, and now a few months later i had a sip, and did not even like it��♀️
I just discovered carbonated water with lemon juice. Refreshing, fantastic and healthy.Much better than sugary sodas.

I drink diet soda and when I feel I’m going overboard I back down to flavored seltzer water. I really want soda to be a treat-or be something I have go get. Thank you for this variety!
I stopped drinking soda because of sugars after four months I’ve lost 40 pounds I was feeling great and figured I would have a Pepsi max because I wanted to treat myself to a soda without the sugar well after having three of those cans over a three day period,, I started having extremely bad heart palpitations and ended up in the hospital! They got my history and told me it was the aspartame
i drink canada dry once every week or week and a half. Idk if that’s good enough but I still like the drink so
I watched this video in June 2018 and have never drank anything other than water and the occasional milk for cereal.
It is honestly the best thing anyone can do. Over the past 18 months I have lost 12kg and that was with very little excersise.
Even now I still indulge in chocolates and lollies but never do I start to put on weight.
Honestly I strongly believe that sugary drinks are literally like drinking poison.
Water is boring, but i found if you add ice to it, it makes it that but more interesting

I haven’t drinked soda for almost a year now and I’ve lost weight because of it. Honestly it’s worth it lol
3/8/20
At my work there is this dude who drinks like a whole 2l bottle soda per day.. i kinda worry about his health tho
I am 15 and I haven’t drunk soda,yoo-hoo or anything like that in almost 3 years! I am much more athletic now and feel and think a lot better. Just wish I had a better genetic makeup I weigh 140 but look 200
I think what you are doing is awesome.
I am not addicted myself but I used to drink some and my mom couldn’t keep away from it. She stopped completely and even though her health is still not 100% she feels a lot better and her digestion improved tremendously.
please keep doing this awesome job!
Every consumable on earth is good unless you hate your father in which case you’re an addict.
Addictions start at home. Don’t have Soda at home, you’ll only create an easy access to grab a can and desire more. Only drink 1 can when you go outside to build it off. It will be much easier to get rid of the addiction when you need to get outside and walk/drive all the way to the Supermarket to get it.
I’m 12 and I used to drink 7 cups of mountain dew a day I stopped drinking pop about a year ago I feel great
The body burns on average 2000 2500 kcal per day period. So if you put on weight then it is simply because of your eating habits and not because of diet soda.
I started keeping track of my Diet Coke consumption. I’m at 20 in 6 days. Can I get an F in the chat.
I wanna drink water but, I want cold water the only cold thing I have is soda that’s why I drink them. I think i’m addicted to cold drinks:/
Awesome tips! I was addicted to diet soda about 5 years ago, but now I never crave them and haven’t had one since. Every now and then I’ll buy Kevita (like you suggested) which gives me that delicious, sweet, and tingly carbonation flavor. I like your suggestion for the flavor seltzers!
The tooth decay, at least, will be a result of regular soda too.
On the bright side, you can’t store fat from energy consumed while drinking diet soda, if you don’t eat anything while drinking it.
My problem is I eat most foods that go very well with soda, I will try try trytyytty to buy the right things to eat and drink
Thanks. Clean and clear summary of other long videos about this topic.
talk to a fucking therapist? everytime I want a coke?
Who the fuck is gonna do that? your tips are shit.
That is exactly what I did and now I drink seltzer. Baby steps is key and gradually cutting back the fruit juice until it was just seltzer water. The kroger flavored brands are all pretty good.:)
I used to get really bad stomach aces from drinking like 5 diet root beers a day ��♀️��♀️
I drink on average 10 Diet Coke’s a week. Honestly, though, EVERYTHING is bad for you if you overdo it. All things in moderation, people.
I used to drink a lot of diet pop and for my resolution for New Years 2015 I decided to give up all carbonated drinks. I have been pop-free for over a year and it has made a whopping difference in my lifestyle. Probably the hardest thing about giving it up was just when I went out with my friends (which is not very often). A lot of mixed drinks at the bar use pop or soda waters in them so now I’m more restricted, but I wouldn’t say that’s necessarily a bad thing in the end 😉 If you’re thinking about giving it up, I’d definitely recommend it. At first I missed my can of diet coke after work but now I haven’t thought about it for months.
I’m in the UK.
I don’t drink a lot of fizzy drinks but used to have sugar free cordial now and again.
After reading and seeing all the numerous ‘dangers’ of sugar free cordial and fizzy drinks I decided to have full sugar coke now and then and full sugar OASIS sometimes.
Guess what? I’ve dropped 2 pounds in weight and BMI lowered too.
As long as it’s not in excess…I would say have normal sugared drinks… but only sporadically!
��
That video with the baby drinking soda always makes me so sad. Instant addiction development. The baby tastes the sourness, then feels the rush of the drugs and immediately takes another sip.
These are great tips I love drinking Diet Coke too, it’s a bad habit to slowly stop drinking. I will try these steps… Where did you buy those drinks you’ve mentioned?
I have type 1 diabetesgot it from genetics when i was 4( nothing to do with my diet ). Will my body still go into fat storage mode when my pancreas doesn’t even produce insulin?
Watching this to feel better of drinking zero sugar soda right now ��
Have you tried or would you recommend drink Kombucha instead of diet soda or soda in general?
ROTL! Talk to a therapist for drinking soda? Are you serious? LOL
I haven’t had soda in 12 years and I actually forget what coke tastes like
Did they take into account life factors? Thats always the question. I hear diet soda is bad from health nuts but idk atm. Prob ok for weight loss but health and weight can be separate things when u have ur weight at a healthy range.
No soda since Dec 2019 and looking forward to never drinking it again!

My body goes into major rebellion with artificial sugars, so DIET soda has never been a problem. Mainlining caffeine to work short handed for weeks on end was another problem. I have introduced the club soda and juice idea to mothers with caffeine and sugar sensitive kids so the kids don’t feel deprived when their friends come over. Some of the other kids became converts after tasting the cool new flavors. I do admit, at the end of a long, rough work day, nothing still is more satisfying and comforting than my can of Coke with generous splash of lemon. Yes, I’m a heathen.
Love all the tips! This is such a great topic! I personally quit soda myself a while ago, and I recommend kombucha to a lot of people! Thanks Dani!
im not fat but my coach says i need to lose weight because it will help my 3pt shot but i legit never eat and i go to practise bball everyday its just sodas and energy drinks that hold me back lol
Hey, love your videos. I have been drinking squash since I was a year old and never drink water on its own. I am really struggling quit the squash and just drinking water. Any ideas and tips?
I was diagnosed with diabetes at age 11. Before that I was healthy drinking regular soda. I’ve had diet soda for 6 years then suddenly age 17 developed peripheral arterial disease in the legs. I am now age 37 and can hardly walk a few blocks without feeling lower leg pain after walking a few blocks. Thank you diet soda for ruining my life.
I have 3 months with out drinking soda just drinking water but no eating healthy����, I haven’t loose or gain weight and my skin is not smother. So that’s a lie, but quit drinking soda. Challenge your self
Everything on earth is good unless you hate your father in which case you’re an addict.
Stop spreading false information to people. I drink diet coke on a daily basis and I’m still very lean. It has zero calories, just like water.
I drink like 5 or 6 sodas a day so this is just telling my terrible future I feel like
Ok but like what if you dont drink pop every day, i drink ot very rarely
I work long hours… very little time off.. so i never keep soda in the house. i try to only have it when i go out… so if im out with the girls for a bite.. i’d let myself have a soda.. so its some sort of treat.. works fairly well
This is glorious, I’ve been looking for “clean bulk definition” for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across Senictoria Bulking Paradise (do a search on google )? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my partner got cool success with it.
I haven’t had soda since I was 13 I’m 16 now and I’ll never have it again same with any sugar drinks, lollies, chocolates, cakes ect so basically no refined sugar
Thanks for this video Dani! I personally never liked soda.I’ve had it occasionally in gatherings but that was pretty much it and i gave it up completely couple of year ago, my mum on the other hand is addicted to diet coke she drinks a can every day because she says it helps her with her digestion issues,could that be true?Also she refuses to substitute it with anything else or give it up. Any tips?
I drink almost 2 liters of diet coke every day. I know I have to quit, but man it’s hard as fuck
What do you think about Red Bull? I drink it some of the time.
My name is brent and im a kid and i think im getting heart disease
Stop drinking soda only about 5 days ago but I already feel better during the day (probably because I’m drinking more water)
The clue is in the name. People who go on a diet are usually people who need to go on a diet. Obesity increases the risk of heart attack and stroke.
thnx Dani great topic I was wondering if you could do a video on healthy diet and exercising during pregnancy thnx alot.x
hi my name is Lacey and I’m a diet soda drinker and I want to quit drinking diet sodas and I don’t know how to do it without the repercussions of it without getting addicted to it again
I think the best way to get people to stop drinking diet pop, yes, I’m from the Midwest, and that’s what we call it, is to have people read the ingredients on the label, and then look up what some of that stuff can potentially do to you. I’ve nearly given up pop, but once a month, I have a craving that nothing else will satisfy, but I’ll get that from the gas station’s dispenser which is watered down so I don’t feel too guilty. Another thing you could to is add the seltzer water to you own, homemade juice, so you know you’re having something more healthy than the store bought stuff.
Doctor, I am going to chime in because there is very little definitive evidence against diet soda and I know have all the proof I need. I have been struggling with weight loss for several years despite knowing the power of a ketogenic diet.
Fed up in 2019, I began the year on a strict low-carb diet and intermittent fasting. Still, even at 16/8, the results were garbage compared to what most people report on such a diet. Pretty soon I started OMAD and saw almost no results.
One thing I should note: I started each day with 1 or 2 cans of Monster Zero, a non-caloric energy drink sweetened with stevia and sucralose. I should also note that I sweetened my black coffee with stevia (No other sweeteners like dextrose) I also would enjoy Coke Zero or Pepsi Max throughout the day. My mood and hunger would fluctuate throughout the day.
In September, I decided to cut out ALL sweeteners. Lei and behold: I began to lose weight and felt great on my intermittent fasting low-carb diet. And quickly! To this day, very few sources claim diet soda hinders weight-loss. Most articles propose the idea but no one has come along with actual proof until now. I am the living proof and it’s all the proof I need.
Likewise, a tumor on my wrist (Which I thought was a bone spur but turned out to be a ‘bible cyst’) disappeared completely after two months. Another growth on my shoulder has diminished greatly and looks like it should also be gone in time.
People hate on me for speaking out against their beloved sweeteners but I intend to spread the truth. I am happy to answer any questions.
I’ve never been a pop junkie, only because I find the carbonation upsets my stomach. Instead, I drink coffee with LOTS of sugar and milk. So that is my downside. I’m going to buy Truvia to put in coffee instead of sugar, because my trainer told me that in her experience, that one is the closest stevia version of sugar she has found. So right now that is my challenge. I don’t think I will ever give up sweet and creamy coffee, because I just simply really like it. So going black probably won’t happen for me. But I figure if I can drink it mostly with stevia, and then have a really yummy Tim Horton’s coffee once a week on a Friday or something, then that will be a good compromise.
Hello Everybody!
I was a soda addict and I want to help you get away from it
So all you need to do is get a bottle
Fill it with water,mint leaves, lemon juice and slices of cucumber
It tastes great
And is healthy
Dani! This is so helpful! I’m trying to lose a great deal of weight and as an aid to that to drink diet soda vs. regular soda. But it is becoming more and more clear how bad of a food choice diet soda is. I found these suggestions to be very helpful. I believe I will try several of them. My husband is a diabetic and I’m hopeful I can also get him on board.
As ideas for the future I would love some menu options for 1200 calorie days that make you feel nice and full without going over…Maybe even with a dessert?
Hi Dani! I went cold turkey….last diet coke was July 2015. I need to give up my coffee (the cream in my coffee).
Diet soda is my weakness-can you discuss stevia and crystal light-there are debates on these-are they harmful-where can I find zevia drinks that you talked about-when you use seltzer water is this pure juice you use or unsweet?thanks again dani-many blessings-Anne from ASheboro-N.C.
I haven’t drank pop in over 3 years. I was 283 and lost 83 or more. I have a little beer belly because I haven’t committed to working out yet. I surprised myself and am proud.
Bruh why are they selling this shit if it can cause of that stuff.
I’ve always been a skinny girl and used to take advantage of that. I used to drink like 2 packs of soda A DAY. Coke, root beer etc. any soda it didn’t matter as long as it was soda and sugary. It was like hell when my mom tried to get me to drink a bottle of water. That’s how addicted I was to the sugary drinks. But I’ve since then quit a few months ago and I rarely drink soda now!:D
We very seldom drink a whole can of soda with a meal,
so we both
stopped drinking soda from 12 oz (355 ML) cans and now drink
16.9 oz (500 ml) bottles of soda so we can put the twist caps back on,
and put half back in the fridge so we can finish the soda the next day.
Reusing the twist caps keeps a bottle of soda from going “flat”.
I tend to drink more instant coffee (with milk & no sugar)
and fruit juice to further reduce my consumption of sugar.

I’m trying to lose weight and I figured out very quickly that I love soda too much and have a taste bud for it…..today I dumped the rest of the bottle of soda I had on the ground…I feel like moron for doing so…but this is a small step towards a bigger goal
I drink a coke about 5 of the 7 days but some times I drink less but I can’t stop and I don’t wanna
I never knew diet soda was more harmful than regular soda had I known that Aspartame had side effects like gray hair memory loss Alzheimer’s all that I would’ve quit drinking diet soda a long ass time ago!!!!
I’m really glad I cut soda out in my early years. It’s scary to think now that soda is an addiction to so many because if the sugar content. I always tell people that cutting out soda is like a rehab 😉
You should do a video on the best things you can drink if you want something to drink other than water.
Thanks for the video. I am a diet coke addict. Been drinking this for years. I don’t like hot beverages, coffee or tea. I go to McDonald’s everyday and have a large diet coke. I go because of habit. Read the paper be around people. I have tried a number of times but can’t seem to do it. I have tried seltzer thinking I was wanting the fizz but I didn’t like the taste. I try to drink water but end up having a diet coke. Of course I know it isn’t good for you but I can’t seem to find the right drink to replace it with.
My hubby was a huge diet coke addict and I was a regular coke addict, this was 10 years ago. Glad to say we no longer drink soda!!!
Hmm, yet I’ve lost 30 lbs after switching to sugar free items because it gives me a caloric deficit. I must be special.
This is just for that stupid weight loss shit
Most of us are just looking how to stop wanting soda
Actually soda coke especially for me personally cleans out my stomach the best but it’s full of sugar so that’s the big concern is the sugar but it’s funny because coke can have good effect on cleaning bad stuff out of my stomach and it’s used to clean toilets sometimes so maybe we should look into some of the good in soda too not just all the bad things. I was always told to see the good in everything even during bad moments. If you think about it alcohol can numb pain and coke can clean toilets so maybe soda can clean the stomach too
I drink about 8 dr pepper a day. I have a 6 pac and feel great. Everyone all ways ask me about how i do it. I tell em water is the first ingredient on back. Soooo we got that… Did i mention im over 50?
I find that I need a little caffeine pick me up in the afternoons that I work (nurse; those 12 hour shifts). I also find myself reaching for the diet soda with certain foods. I don’t think I consume it excessively, therefore I don’t stress about quitting all together. I do love sparkling water and unsweetened ice tea. I do not like to drink my calories, so I am hesitant to try anything that contains sugar. On a side note, I am curious as to what you have plugged in. Is it an essential oil diffuser?
I drink coca cola because I can’t drink water! I actually throw up if u drink water!
With a 100% money back guarantee, there is no risk for you, maybe just for your alcohol addiction. And believe me, no one will be sad to see it go!

I also dislike drinking my calories unless it’s like a meal-replacer like a really filling, fibrous and nutritious smoothie. Therefor i have developed an addiction to zero calorie drinks cola zero tops the list! I’ve been struggling to quit drinking it for over half a year I’m sure these tips will help a lot! Thank you!!
I stopped drinking soda 3 months ago lol i did it, i only drink apple juice and water, i used to drink 6 cans of soda per day, now i feel bad and sick when i drink it, also soda tastes disgusting now
I used to drink about 60oz a day of dr. pepper. I switched to sparkling water first, then to plain water. That was 4 years ago. Now, I occasionally drink green iced tea.
I actually quit freely. I just feel like soda is so bad. I have been drinking water, and tea thats the only two things I drink. I do drink a flavored water without cancer stuff in it but only a bottle a day just to get that flavor in that I love.
i’m only 14 and i haven’t drank soda for a month, it’s easy for me
Hey Dani, I also used to be a diet soda addict. I’d quit about 10 years ago when articles started to come out about the artificial sweeteners that are/were used in diet sodas, and how bad it is for our health. I quit cold turkey and never looked back. I drink still water with lemon juice, or I love plain fruit/herbal teas. I also started to make and drink Kombucha in the past year with my lunch which I enjoy very much.
99% of the people who drink diet sodas are already in bed health. Most are also seriously over weight and all those reasons they have heart problems. If this is you you better long fast and save tour life and fix what’s wrong in your body. I was diabetic, had edema and weighed over 450 lbs. Thanks to Dr. Jason Fung and his books I’m now 190 lbs and no longer diabetic or have edema. I lost 230 in about 9 months.
i stopped drinking soda and it was LIFE CHANGING!!!!
I lost no weight.
I quit soda when I was like 12….. it was super easy. I have the mental fortitude of an ancient wise tree. Yep. I occasionally drink some mineral water, maybe once every couple of months.
Hey Dani, love this video thanks for the tips! I wanted to ask what your thoughts are for alternative cream in my coffee? I like half and half but I dont know on the spectrum of options where that weighs in as far as what’s healthier and tasty. Thanks!
I’m so lucky that my mom taught me when I was young that soda is only for special occasions otherwise I might have been addicted as well! Great video Dani!
once I turned diabetic, I knew I had to get off soda (1-3) bottles a day. I was addicted to the bubbles, the sugar. It took about 2 years to totally transition to diet soda. But it never tasted as good or satisfied me, but then REAL sugar was SO sweet I couldn’t go back to regular soda anyways (because it would kill me) and it was too sweet. So I started different diet waters, diet coke with stevia, but i was not losing weight and I was barely controlling my diabetes. I knew the crap in the diet coke was no good to me, I needed to alkanize my diet, get rid of those chemicals and just DEAL with wanting it but denying myself the pleasure. I have since bought selzer water that has no calories that has carbonation and fruit flavors. I take 2 drinks of this straight, then I add -2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar. It hides the shocking vinegar flavor within the seltzer, and this has helped me lower my appetite for carbs and lowering my sugar readings. I honestly believe that ‘POP’ contributed 80 percent to my getting diabetes, and if I could take it away, I would have NEVER allowed it brought into the house or around myself and kids. It is poison in my mind. Everytime I see it, my husband and I laugh and say, “you want a little drink of poison”, we laugh, but it sets our minds to ‘stay away from that crap”.
If your trying to loose weight Diet Coke or stuff like sugar free gum is great. As long as your getting active and burning calories. Stuff like Diet Coke is good to satisfy your cravings. It was one of my tricks when I was loosing weight.
I get a headache if i don’t drink a coke. Oh and your really pretty
hi everyone,if anyone else is searching for is it bad to chew gum on an empty stomach? try Jayceren Fat Result Method (search on google )? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate got great results with it.
Thank you for this video Dani! I’m a huge soda junkie, have always been but a few years ago I switched to diet Coke and it became worse as I drink a 20oz bottle few days a week. I want to quit it but I miss the carbonation so this tips will come handy when I’m ready to leave my dc
I had to say bye bye to diet soda after they began to give me migraines. I drink good spring water from a local spring, with the juice of an orange and a lemon, on ice. 2 quarts to the juice referenced previously. Yum!
I started doing that I will keep you updated its been 3 days so 4
Day 1It was kinda easy in the start
Day 2I started having some urges but I stayed in water
Day 3Saw a soda can in my fridge hard to resist but I managed to resist it update: couldn’t resist it I failed but it is a 0% sugar one so I will continue and if I do it again I actually failed it
Hmm that’s an interesting drink! I used to drink a lot of coke zero but I decided it was making me crave more sugar and it was time to stop. I just stopped cold turkey and chewing on sugar free gum helped me. I also make sugar free low cal jello to help with the cravings. Seemed to work.
It’s been almost a year since I completely gave up all soda. I replaced it with sparkling water/seltzer water. I need the bubbles! I feel so much better. Not just with my digestive system but my muscles and joints also feel better.
i have my liver fucked up cuz of coke…..so i haven’t had any for 2 weeks now
Awesome video Dani! I definitely wish I had followed these tips. I used to be a soda addict as well (20+ sodas a week), but with regular soda. Luckily I quit cold turkey 5 years ago, and haven’t had a soda since. I lost about 30 pounds! Unfortunately I suffered headaches and an irritable mood for months, definitely not a good way to quit soda lol. Now I drink the Kroger brand of lemon and lime flavored sparkling water, it’s pretty good.
So you went from artificial sweeteners, to stevia, then back to sugar? Juice has as much sugar, if not more, than soda… this seems like a huge step backwards.
Thanks for sharing these great tips! I was a big soda drinker & lover of all sweets for many years. I wish I had tried your gradual weaning off method a year ago. I was recently diagnosed with diabetes so I had to quit all sugars & sweetened drinks..cold turkey. Don’t wait for your bad cravings to affect your health. Try to cut back on your sugar intake. It was easy after the first few days. I don’t crave sugar anymore. Also, I love flavoring my water with Meyer lemon slices. It’s a little sweeter than regular lemons.
Good luck everyone!
damn I’ve been without soda for a month now. I would drink about 2 liters of coke everyday.
Hello I haven’t drank carbonated drinks for about more than a year now and never have I ever tasted alcohol. I can’t really tell any differences but, I’m still continuing to do so just because I hate how it feels like in my throat. So yeah �� just keep living the way the you want! Life is a one time ticket experience, don’t waste it restricting yourself, just do what you want.
er, i drank 193 gallons a year… 2 litres a day, more on weekends haha (diet coke)
I’m 26 and I drink 2-3 soda everyday. I’m 6’1 and skinny as fvck
WOW< this couldn't come at a better time. I decided the other day to quit. I've found flavor seltzers to be most helpful! I also promised myself that with the money I'll be saving on diet soda, I'll get to buy more cookbooks:)
Excellent subject. It was cold turkey for me; twice! First, I quit smoking over 20 years, and now diet soda
I am happy with plain old seltzer. My favorite is Perrier brand, but it’s becoming costly. So, I am settling for carbonated filtered water. And like everyone else, I flavor it with citrus (mainly lime).
Thank you! Before I saw your upload, I thought I was the only person in the world who enjoyed carbonation. But now, somewhere in the back of mind I am awaiting for the dreaded “STUDY” (as usual) that will demonize seltzer water and ruin my happiness.
Kudos for the Video! Forgive me for chiming in, I would appreciate your thoughts. Have you tried Taparton Impressive Look Takeover (just google it)? It is a good exclusive product for Getting a bikini ready body in 60 days without the normal expense. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my GF after a lifetime of fighting got amazing success with it.
I am trying to get my mom to stop! She just can’t get over drinking Diet Mountain Dew!! She says that nothing tastes the same! But right now I am drinking Zevia and I love it:-)
Lovely Video clip! Apologies for chiming in, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you ever tried Patlarny Abstinent Life Principle (do a google search)? It is a great one off guide for getting rid of a drinking problem minus the normal expense. Ive heard some decent things about it and my close friend Aubrey after a lifetime of fighting got great results with it.
Right now I’m on Baby Step 2 lol…I used to be addicted to diet Dr. Pepper, now I drink Dr. Zevia which taste just like the “real” thing:)
I remember I stopped drinking soda for a week and I lost some weight. But as of now I’m quitting soda for good.
This woman is pretty but has the energy of a drunken baby moth’s fart on a windy day.
i did the same thing but it took me one week to think about and stopped juices and soda and now my favorite drink is just water and lime just like you Dani, i loved soda but once i took this decision this love for soda was gone, i was reading an article about stevia and i discovered that it was not the natural plant that we are drinking as sweetener but it was an othe stevia with other ingrédients, stevia is green and not white…. then i took the decision to forget about it, thanks to god in my country all our veggies and fruits are organic and cheap so we don’t have to worry about this….Dani thanks for the tips.
I am not a diet soda addict, but I am a carbonated water addict! lol My favorite drink of all time is carbonated water with a squeeze of lemon or lime. It became rather expensive to “support my addiction” lol, so I purchased a Soda Stream machine at Bed, Bath, & Beyond with the 20% off coupon. I also purchase the refill cartridges there too using the coupons and I save $$$$ and can still enjoy my fizzzzzzzzzzzzz.:)
Do you feel any difference towards your teeth by drinking lime /lemon juice? My teeth are sensitive to fruit juices. I regularly drink 1,5 liters of Pepsi max a day.
