Yep, I have to drink a can of soda at least once a day, but it doesn't have to be Mountain Dew. It could be Coke, Cherry Coke, Dr. Pepper, or Pepsi.  The one thing that I did though it limit myself. I only drink maybe a can a day and that's it. Just gradually try to wean yourself daily.

How are things going Ms.Dew?  Have you cut back at all?  I remember when I gave up soda, I would get killer headaches.  It's not so much the caffeine that you're craving, it's the sugar in your brain.  I changed my diet, I ate mostly natural sugars like fruit, and I made sure to get a lot of sleep.  :)

I too drink too much soda. I drink diet though because I thought it was better for you, but I still need to limit it. I really need to be drinking more water instead.
