How often do you drink pop / soda?

[Snow Frostflame 3,567]

never actually, only drank 5 sodas in my life and never finished any of them

[Nintenboy195 384]

I think I drink too much dew?

[mcpon14 87]

It fluctuates really. Like for the past few weeks, I've been drinking about a can a day. But then there's times where I go like months without drinking any. I love soda, though. Pepsi and Coke are both amazing, and Dr. Pepper sucks. At least we're not drinking energy drinks. No shit, those things'll give you kidney stones. There was a study done recently that found a butt load of teens and young adults who were drinking like a can of energy drink a day were getting kidney stones. Crazy, huh? Especially considering kidney stones are something that people shouldn't be getting until like age 60 or so. I personally hate energy drinks, and find anyone who can drink a can a day an idiot. But I digress.

I love energy drinks!  But I don't drink that much of them anymore because of how unhealthy they are.

Soft drinks are quite a magical concoction, although extremely unhealthy. I'll have one on the order of maybe 2-3 times per year, but my parents would never have them in the house. I have to admit, I'm not unsatisfied with the decision there... A healthy lifestyle is more important in my opinion.

[EverEverOn 346]

As much as I love sodas, I hardly drink them anymore.

 

I used to have sodas almost every day, but now I only drink them on the weekends or on special occasions. Since I started doing this, I've generally felt better and healthier than before.

 

Also, I stopped enjoying a lot of sodas recently. Nowadays I don't really like a lot of junk foods.

[Lucky Bolt 34,914]

Only once a week at most...I used to drink soda close to everyday but I've really cut down on it. I don't want kidney stones....or diabetes. 

[DixonTheAdversary 1,631]

I typically try to limit myself to just 1 a day. Sometimes I'll do 2.

[Patty Thundersnow 4,129]

About one 20 ounce bottle or a standard can per day. Trying to cut down.

[Dreambiscuit 8,024]

I drink the stuff by the gallon. Literally four or five cans a day. My blood is probably 70% soda, so if you shook me up I'd explode with all that carbonated goodness. 

[Frostgage 7,972]

Hardly at all these days. It's kinda funny - I always thought that once I gained the freedom to do so, I would drink soda at every opportunity possible. Now I can have as much as I want but I mostly just drink water lol

i don't like being old

[Cash In 21,516]

I'll usually drink it a few times a week, but I'm trying my best to avoid as much of it as I can lately.

[Doctor Derpy 164]

I try to cut sugar where I can so most of the soda I drink is diet. I mean, it's just something I can sip on while working, browsing, etc. So a few cans per week but it changes to a few to none at all. I even drink the diet Monster cans or drink that Bang! Pre-workout stuff, too. I use a straw when I do, though. Stuff makes my teeth feel weird and I don't like it.

 

I also drink a lot of water. Especially alongside those energy drinks.

Probably about a can or two per week when I go the pub but that's mixed with Rum, I don't often drink pop/soda on it's own now. Used to drink a lot more fizzy drinks when I was younger but hardly drink that much of them now.

[Savygriffs 5,022]

Yikes, way too much. Trying to cut down on them though. :/ 

[Shigaraki 270]

I drink both and I like have it 3 or 2 times every day also sometimes it depends

[Envy 6,000]

I used to drink waayyyy too much. Like it was really bad. I'd have it when I woke up, first break at work, lunch at work, second break at work, when I got home, before I went to bed. And sometimes that was bottles instead of just cans. D:

As I've probably made all too obvious, a few years ago I switched to unsweetened sparkling water and haven't even had the urge for pop since. Of course, unsweetened sparkling water took a lot of adjusting to because it is as bitter as can be at first, but it didn't take long for me to no longer taste that bitterness. I always thought it was the sugar of pop that kept me addicted, but it was actually the carbonation, and sparkling water has that covered for me.

The only thing that sucks about sparkling water is that it is not available at most restaurants, so I just have to have regular water with my meals when I'm out, when I love carbonated drinks with food. Come on businesses, get with it!

if a restaurant says they don't have sparkling water, try asking for soda water

it's essentially the same thing, except it's been carbonated artifically rather than naturally

[Steve Piranha 28,782]

I drink every once in a while (translation: once every other month or so. Water is usually free anyways )

[Aurora Wolf 2,354]

Not very often at all. I hardly ever drink anything besides water.

[EpicEnergy 22,082]

Normally I drink a can of Mountain Dew each day, but I'm trying to stop drinking sodas.

[Methuselah 291]

About once or twice per month.

[Fluttershutter 2,118]

I've been cutting down(sucks cause I love it), I only drink it with meals now so two cans or less a day.

[TheRockARooster 47,310]

I love my Pepsi, I drink it way too much.

[Shiki 5,853]

Only when I'm splurging at some kind of special event. 

[CheeryFox 23,811]

I still drink it often. Mostly diet and caffeine-free.
