We heard reminders about the consumption of carbonated drinks; its effects and whatsoever but, sometimes we can't control ourselves from drinking. I once stop but reverted the old habit. Do you have the habit of consuming a bottle/can a day or more?

@ZedSmart having it rarely in limit is no harm I think

@Icydoll Maybe. My doctor's always reminding me about that. Though my sugar level is still normal but I don't want to further raise it. I have a sister who is diabetic.

For health reason for sure. I can skip a day but then again, tomorrow is another day.

That's right. It's for our own good as well.

When we were young we would always loved to drink carbonated drinks. I even remembered my mom would buy a case during the summer vacation for us to cool us off with it. Moving on to the present time these beverages are now considered differently as it was before. It is labeled as unhealthy and is said to cause disease like diabetes and many more. That is why we slowed down on consumption of these beverages. Although we didn’t stopped drinking since at many restaurants they are still being offered.

@ZedSmart Oh I have lessened the intake drastically at home we don't have that anymore. The cola has been long damned but of course there is the occassional drinking when it happens.

Like this comment very much. Yes, some or most of us can't stop because they're everywhere and difficult to avoid. Just minimize the intake though.

At least you are not consuming it often. It's really hard to avoid especially when there are meat dishes around.

I tried to alternate the day without consuming a can or a bottle. There are just times that I would have it everyday and I can consume a bottle or two. Maybe, not that excessive but I like to stop it really.

@ZedSmart i guess 1 or 2 a day isn't that bad compared to others, but yeah, it's good to cut down gradually until you're used to it.

I gave up drinking these drinks a long time ago. They are full of sugar and not very good for you. But I know a lot of people like them.

We know what are those... Meaty dishes and those with strong flavorings are best to partner with. I'm always guilty.

No, I am not addicted to drink carbonated drinks. I drink it only when someone insists me.
