Coz I don't smoke and I don't drink alcohol either.. mmm... anyone there can suggest me ways to stop this addiction? This is one addiction I got to stop!!! great post.

So I know about mental and physical obsessions. I'm afraid that i have rationalized drinking root beer is ok because I won't get drunk and get in trouble with the law, I also have diabetis so I rationalize Diet. I feel that seltzer sensation going down my gullet. Somewhat like a beer feels going down my gullet. I think I need to get down and find what the cause is. I suspect that It has to do with loneliness, boredom, self centerdness. Root Beer is filling the hole in my gut.

This time I'm going to do it after drinking 600 calories a day and my weight ballooning to 300 lbs. I'm not going to touch a drop of the stuff every again. I have tried to give up soda for years.

It's not the caffeine or the sugar I crave, it's the acidy-fizziness. The phosphoric acid maybe? I try to limit it to 1-2 cans a day. I know it's bad for my teeth, my health, and my wallet, but I love it sooooo much. I console myself with the reminder that I don't smoke or drink, but it would be nice to be vice-free.

I drink ablmost a pot of decaf a day though along w a liter or 2 of water. I don't think it's a $$ savings but anyway that's my story. it's a better feeling to be drinking something less processed.
