[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I switched form a lifetime soda habit to sparking water a few years ago.  It wasn’t easy...sparkling water used to taste like punishment to me.[/quote]

Sorry, I hit submit too soon. What I did to ease the transition at first, because I hated the bland taste of sparkling water, was to squeeze fresh lemon and fresh lime juice into a cold bottle of Pellegrino. Eventually I weaned myself off the juice, and now, miraculously, Pellegrino tastes sweet to me.

Since you are also a Coke drinker you’ve got the double barrel caffeine withdrawal issue. I do continue to drink very strong black Irish tea with cream minute in the mornings. It’s low carb, which goes along with my keto diet. I could not have given up sugar in my tea where it not for replacing the milk with cream. It is very satiating. But breaking a sugar and caffeine have it at the same time is really difficult. I would recommend that you choose one or the other. Either stick with a bubbly drink in the morning and then also have a separate caffeinated drink, or break the caffeine habit first.[/quote]
