I was drinking between 8 and 20 cans of Diet Pepsi a day (it was how I got all of my water on most days) and I stopped cold turkey. Talk about an absolutely miserable Day 2.

But I have only had 1 can in six weeks (last weekend because I was getting dehydrated and no other source of water was around). I was hoping that it would taste horrible to me - but it tasted OK, not as good as I remembered it but I still enjoyed it. I was fearingthat it would start me craving it again. I lucked out there.

Stick out the two weeks and then ask yourself if you really need it bad enough to risk stalling your weight loss over?

Keep up the good work.
