quiting soft drinks was one of the first things i did. i was highly motivated by misery. my logic? one of my major organ systems(respiratory) was devoted to doing 2 things - ingesting oxygen and removing co2. i asked myself, why the hell do i want to ingest what my body is struggling to remove?
may not be chemically sound thinking, but you cant fill a twelvepack with all the soda i have drank since 2002.
