So I’ve been off the alcohol over a year, but Dr pepper has become the new menace of my life. I am drinking an unhealthy amount of it and finding it hard to stop.
Try sparkling or seltzer waters, no sugar and no calories but it still has the fizzy-ness. I’ve become quite the sparkling water connoisseur since I stopped drinking alcohol lol
Is that just carbonated water or something else?
Yep, just naturally flavored sparkling water. Very faint flavor added with a few drops of some fruit.
There’s tons of flavors. I drink probably half a case a day. All you get is well hydrated.
My go to brand is La Croix. Bubly is another.
Buyer beware, there are brands with added artificial sweeteners, too. I only avoid them cuz those give me gas.
It’s a good tip when out and about too. If out to eat I might have a sugary drink. But if you’re staying light, can almost always order a club soda with lemon or lime and squeeze your own.
When I first was off alcohol I drank soda pop like crazy so then I switched to Diet Coke & Coke Zero but my doc said that was unhealthy as well so I tried what everyone was saying in ST…I’m also a big fan of La Croix like @Eke. Still putting up a fight with my diet soda but having a good stock of sparkling water around is helping daily❣
