Stopping a Soda Addiction?

Question by Sonic_boom: stopping a soda addiction?
I drink about 5-8 sodas a day, when i don’t have them i get awful headaches and just feel really weak, so i’m going to try to stop (even though i loveee them) 🙁 Problem is, i hate water! It makes me sick to my stomach, i’ve never had the taste for it, i just think it tastes awful. same for the flavored water, it has a funky aftertaste. any ideas on something healthier i can drink that isnt water but will help me stop drinking soda?

Best answer:
