I kinda like Diet Dr. Pepper.  It's different.

Did Coke stop making a diet drink?  I must have missed that.

OK, alcohol and caffeine make sense...but diet coke makes a caffeine-free version.

I completely emphathize.  I had to give up refined sugar and peanuts - which meant I had to give up real sugar in my coffee (and I drink a LOT of coffee) and peanut butter (which I was literally addicted to), not to mention all the other refined sugar and peanut products I was getting incidentally. 

It was wicked hard, but worth it in the end.  I had physical issues which have been cleared up about 85-90% since quitting pure sugar and peanuts.

Give up sugar next?

God help me!!!!!  :o

This sucks. I've had a Diet Coke today - cause it's in the house and I was shaking. But overall, i think I've done pretty good for somone who normally downs 8-12 in a day.

Once you're over the hump and start feeling the benefits, it gets that much easier.  If I sneak any PB (and I do, I won't lie), I feel the effects the very next day and they aren't pleasant - in fact worse than before because now I notice them more. 

Anyway, good luck!

Are you able to switch to caffeine free Diet Coke...or do you have to eliminate Diet Coke period?

I went from caffeine to caffeine free...so once my body adjusted to eliminating the caffeine ...I still had the Diet Coke. There really isn't a taste difference that I could tell.

Have the headaches started yet? To me, those were worse than the shakes.

If you can have it, chocolate has a small amount of caffeine. It doesn't have any effect on me....chocolate relaxes me so much, I get sleepy.

Just an FYI....tea has more caffeine than coffee...

Doc said I could "drink all the caffeine free Diet Coke you want." But.... I have two cases of regular DC from Sam's in the basement (32/each)....

I've long felt that the issue w/ Diet Coke, even though it's a beautiful gift from God, is the chemicals. I figure I might as well try to ignore the caffeine free variety and get off this garbage once and for all. Or so I tell myself right now...

I have a bit of a headache, a bit of a cold, am exhausted from sitting on my ass all day w/ work and lack of sleep... Overall, just a crappy week.

I don't do the sodas, but I must have my coffee in the morning.  I shudder to think what I would do if a doctor told me no caffeine or alcohol.  I am so sorry for you.   :bawl:

8-12???  Good Lord!!

I had to give up caffeine a few years ago.  My heart doc said I could keep it up, but would die if I did.  Not a bad incentive.  Took me a couple of weeks.

I only do exercise that requires the use of one hand at a time so I can hold my beer with the other.  I KNOW that is going to be taken wrong ...

No comment.  But, I would walk a treadmill and drink a beer.  And, if you drink a Bloody Mary, and it has a celery stick in it, then the celery and tomato juice negate the Vodka, right?

Ya know, is life worth living when one has to sacrifice the good things ?? I can see the diet sodas as aspartame has some bad side effects, especially if it gets over 100°F (turns into methanol, not the good kind of alcohol) But seriously, coffee?? Soda, altogether?? (I kind of have a bad feeling about HFCS, though, so Mexican Coke might be better for a person) While I try to limit my intake of sodas to one per day, I drink a lot of coffee (black). The way I look at it is I'll die when I die. Ain't much, other than being just plain reckless, is going to change it. I could be driving down the road and some idiot could front on crash me and I might die. One's number is up when it's up. (Note to Eupher; "It's")
