I don’t know if this is true buy my doctor said bubbles in coke make you hyper acidic? How come? But Gordie I think you should refrain form taking too much caffeine hehe.

Hi Gordie

I found your blog via Far Beyond the Stars. Well done on quitting coke! Keep at it, you’ll notice the difference now in your waistline, but the real difference will be in later years when you’re old and healthy. When (if) ever you feel like slipping back into your old ways just drive past an old age home and look at all those bent over oldies hobbling around with their zimmer-frames. Treat your body kindly now and it will reward you tenfold in years to come.

Cheers, Angela

Only two per month should be fine. Green tea is quite nice in the summer, too.

I only drink two a month. lol Caffeine headaches are caused by lack of caffeine. That includes coffee etc. I barely drink any caffeine now. A coffee about 3 times a week and the rest the time I drink tea which has less caffeine- some n caffeine.

You may need to keep cutting down the amount you drink until you ween yourself completely off it. Good luck, Rose.

I am experiencing caffeine withdrawal symptoms. The only time I drink a coke now is if I have a headache.

Hi Rose,
So, the caffeine in the Coke helps your headaches? Perhaps you’re experiencing caffeine withdrawal symptoms. Maybe you can try pushing through them for a couple more weeks and you might have successfully weened yourself off the caffeine by then.

My mother was a diabetic so I have to get my sugars checked once a year. Sugar levels are fine. I think the migraine is more a caffeine headache.

Welcome, Rian!
I think the thing is for me to also cut out sugar. Sugar can be addictive as you get used to those sugar rushes. Water is probably better for me than sodas and juices.

Gordie,
Why don’t you try some non-caffeinated drinks. I know the substance is addictive same with coffee. Coke is really popular here in our country but I make sure we drink a glass at least twice a week only.

Welcome, Rose!
That’s interesting that it helps your migraines. Is it possible that your migraines are caused by low blood sugar levels and that any other sweet thing would quickly get rid of the headache too?

You & I shared the same addiction. I gave up coke & only drink it when I have a migraine. Funny thing it helps my headache. Good luck on recovering. Maybe we should form a rehab group for cola addicts? lol

Hi Carrie,
Yeah, replace Coke with water, that way you at least will at least not feel thirsty. Not thirsty means less chance of grabbing a soda. Thanks.

Get back on the wagon as soon as you can. Your health is at stake. Thanks for popping along.

I plan to follow your lead — I cut soft drinks out completely on a health kick a few years ago, and found it easy to get used to. Then I fell off the wagon, and need to find my way back. You’re right. There’s nothing in it good for you. Thanks for the inspiration.

hi!
wow, and I was feeling like a bit of a freak for being a Diet Coke addict – that junk is so hard to kick. It’s as much a mental addiction as a physical one I think. I’m torn between being relieved that I’m not the only one, and really sad that we’ve all been hooked on this crap. I think you’re right, cold turkey is gonna be the only way to start kicking it outta my system, weaning back just doesn’t work for me. And +++upping my water consumption at the same time. Thanks for the post Gordie!
