I'm about to start cutting, and need to stop all my habits. I have no problem with food, candy, pastries or energy drinks. But goddamn, soda gets me everytime. The sugar and carbonation is was attractes me. I'll have about a 16oz bottle a day, on a good week,
Any tips on how to break the habit?
(I don't want substitutes for drinks, I already drink shit loads of coffee and the occasional tea)

add everclear to diet soda, drink as much as you want whenever you want, but make sure there is a lot of everclear in it.
you'll learn to hate all soda.

Drink water you weak willed faggot
I won't buy soda but my problem is that where I work I get free soda so I'm always tempted, I'm going to start bringing my own water and make myself only drink from that

See if you can find some flavored seltzers that you like. I use them to deal with my carbonation urge. If you absolutely want to keep drinking soda, try transitioning to a 12oz can a day.

As somebody who used to drink 6-8 cans of soda a day, I can tell you there's no magic trick to just not want it any more.
You just have to decide to have discipline and stick to it. After about a month of no soda you'll start to realize how much better other foods/drinks taste because your tastebuds aren't getting bombarded with liquid candy constantly.
I only drink water, milk, black coffee, or tea now, and when I do have soda (maybe once a month) my mouth feels so fucking gross I have to brush my teeth after. Totally worth it.

>i dont want substitutes
Then fucking quit? Wtf are you looking for faggot?
Try different spring water bottles, drink it while it's cold
I just quit it full stop. I used to drink 2 20oz bottles a day, even more some days. Its hard at first but once you can go at least two weeks without drinking any and drinking nothing but water, coffee, and tea, it becomes really easy. You won't even have a taste for it after that.
I actually went full mode all soda for about 8 months.
this was a wonderful 8 months, but I had a buddy who moved and gave me a bunch of soda and I was too much of a retard to say no.
I've managed to cut back, but I still drink about 2-3 20oz a week. I'm disappointed in myself.
Used to drink 2 sugar free red bulls and 12 diet cokes a day.
Now I drink 4 cups of black coffee, a shit load of water, and maybe one topo Chico if I go out and I'm not boozing.

*Full no soda mode.
I stopped by drinking tea instead, I started by drinking regular sweetened tea which obviously has as much sugar as soda but then I switched to unsweetened tea which is what I drink now.
I also like perrier or some sort of sparkling mineral water for the carbonation.
It was a little difficult when I first quit because I had to consciously remember not to order soda as restaurants and stuff because I was so used to it. Eventually once you get used to the fact its not an option for you its much easier, I don't have any desire for soda now.
Haven't drank any soda in a year good luck anon.

You might consider the addiction from the vantage point of hyperinsulinemia. Have you had your blood sugar checked?
One of the fastest ways I've been able to help fatasses cut their soda and sugar addiction it to fast them for four days if they're not diabetic. Four days is quite long enough to drop your insulin and blood sugar to the point that you break that sugar cycle.
When i was a fatty I struggled getting rid of the soda addiction. by day 4 four of the fast I had absolutely no interest in it any more.

Get rid of all soft drinks if you live with a family and can't just have a jug of cold water always ready to quench your thirst.
