i hope this will help you to think about quitting even more, I had a friend who died from drinking 6 to 8 or more 2 liter bottles daily, no water or anything else, that's just how addicted she was, she was diagnosed with stomach cancer and all that soda the doctors said gave her gangrene of the stomach. I just couldn't believe it myself, once they found it she was dead in no time, this has been years ago and i still remember it like it was yesterday..please make yourself stop before it's too late.....

Here are a few arguments to cut down on them.

Try brewed tea .... it isn't nearly so harmful in moderation. I've learned to stop drinking anything containing caffeine after 4 PM if I want to sleep, but am several years older than you. :(
