I stopped drinking any kind of fizzy drinks for more than a year now and I don't miss them. Before stopping I used to drink three to six glasses of coke (around 200ml per glass) every day and making two plus two I realized this habit was going to do me harm sooner or later. I wasn't fat nor I had health problems. I just wanted to do something healthy for myself.
I remember that it wasn't hard at all for me to stop. For the first week I kind of craved it, but not even that much. Every time it happened I just started thinking "This is going to make you feel bad and guilty" and the craving went away. It must be said that at the time I was on a diet plan and I was practicing running, counting every single calorie I ate and every single calorie I burnt. Thinking that it took me twenty minutes of running to burn 250Kcals and that a single glass could have given me back almost half of them (105Kcal for a glass of Coca-Cola) was a very powerful motivation.
