Pepsi Addict!?!
Pepsi Addict!?
I've been addicted to Pepsi for many years now, and can't seem to breakaway from the habit. It's causing me stomach problems and concerns for my teeth....any suggestions on how I can break this addiction?
Answers:
Hi, my sis's MIL had this issue. She started having issues with her blood sugar levels and that is what made her cut back. So, here is what she did. Your body is used to the sugar and caffeine. So to break the habit you need to wean yourself off a bit at a time.
Start by not changing the amount you drink, but what you drink. Two choices here: Go with 3/4 regular Pepsi, and 1/4 diet Pepsi or sprite. (choose one to start with caffeine or sugar to work on) Do this for a week or two. Next, which ever one you did not take down the first week, do the second week or third week.
You are still drinking the same #, just not full sugar or full caffeine.
Then go to half and half. By that I mean half reg. Pepsi and half diet sprite.
Then start pacing yourself. No more than one an hour, or one every two hours. You don't say how much you consume per day, but try to regulate it a bit. Get yourself down to one every 4 hours.
From there you can decide what to trim off next... until you are down to a reasonable level and you've weaned yourself onto diet sprite totally. Diet Sprite is an easy thing to cut back on. No caffeine, no sugar.
Be sure to have Tylenol or something ready, you can really get a headache from caffeine withdrawl! Drink lots of water in between and try switching to herbal teas in between sodas. Your body will start to feel better and start craving the other things instead.
just try to leave it
you know every human has one unique addict that is living
so if u want to leave any addict you should just kill the habit by what ever way.
if u have will and courage you can fix the time of leaving your addiction oherwise that addiction will make you to leave it
so better choice in your own way don't follow others, becuase ultimately you are the one who are going to practice others are just educations and experience.
just keep your will on high and try to forget anything you got addict.
greetings for break the addict
My Ex-wife was a Pepsi addict. She died in 2003, from unknown causes. It was, in my opinion, because she substituted Pepsi for nutritional foods. Start drinking water and soon in large quantities or forever hold your peace!
*ugh* Cold turkey...sorry...withdrawls are hard too! I fell asleep standing up and fell into a brinck wall! LOL
Try flavored waters-they helped me.
