How do I break a fizzy drink addiction?

It was a Christmas gift

On the flip side, you can buy the CO2 bottle from other, compatible, brands (Indigo for example but there are others).

My trick? Have severe stomach issues requiring you to cut sodas out completely, and then just cut them out. I quit full cold turkey, no more caffeine, nothing but drinking water for at least a year, and then I started with a couple teas.
-
This is what I did as well. I also had to get some flavored water i found I liked the taste of and it helped to have a variety.

that's disgusting dude. try soda water. fucks sake

Also, Pepsi Max is a zero calorie drink, so 1 a day is hardly a lot. Three artificial sweeteners aren't the best for you, but OP shouldn't feel like they are ruining their health on that.
To this point, for me, it was all about the bubbles. So replacing with a seltzer water did wonders. Sometimes I still have a craving to pound bubbles real quick.

American and I drink all types of teas???

Rephrase this because you mention alcohol. Kombucha is non alcoholic and.. Has .5 percent alc. Volume. So fear not people. Good for the gut microbiome too.

The comments here are fucking wild.
Outside of the caffeine, there’s nothing inherently special about a fizzy drink habit that would make it remarkable from other habits when it comes to giving it up. So a guide like https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/how-to-break-a-bad-habit-202205022736 could be useful.

I find coffee to be the best replacement but never liked sugary sodas, only the sugar-free ones.
I still have a diet soda now & then but not even once a week.

Seltzer. Kombucha.

Breville makes one that uses a non-proprietary canister that can be refilled for a few dollars. We love ours.

Is it the sweetness that you're addicted to? The fizz itself maybe? There are drinks that are sweet yet not fizzy, and there are drinks that are fizzy yet not sweet. If you can find out, you can begin to substitute less unhealthy options. Then eventually quit entirely.

I got off of soda by drinking plenty of water in place of it. Good luck!

Wait. You can talk??

Chat is it frowned upon to drink beverages
