So how are you doing with giving up the Brew so far??
just stick with water , put a few drops of lime or lemon in it, Stay away from MIO that crap it full of all kinds of garbage you should not be putting in your body...
What are you getting in MIO? Propylene Glycol is a clear and slightly bitter liquid that is used to prevent discoloration of foods during storage. It has been shown to cause various diseases in animal studies when consumed in large quantities.
Acesulfame Potassium is a fake sweetener that is potentially carcinogenic.
“Natural Flavor” with fake colors to cause you to imagine the berries depicted on the package. Unfortunately those artificial colors may cause cancer and hyperactivity too.
Last but not least, potassium sorbate is a mold inhibitor – it allows this product to sit on a shelf for months.
So, Mio is a gobbledegook of chemicals designed to entice consumers, but mostly to increase Kraft profits.

Have you heard about the man that gave up Smoking, drinking, pastries, red meat and pasta in order to live to be 100?
He was miserable longer and died anyway.
Life... live it

I quit beer and cigarettes every night before I go to bed.
You guys are not helping the OP at all. Dang!
I cut out drinking for 3 months about 2½ years ago. I lost 20lbs without doing anything else at all. I replaced it with sweet tea in the beginning, but then realized that all the sugar was as bad as the beer, weight wise. Interestingly, I have a sweet tooth when I am not drinking but not at all when I am drinking.
The first three or four days are the toughest, after that it gets to be easy. It helps to have friends that are supportive, most all mine were once they found out I was serious.
In the beginning, it was tough finding ways to fill my time, but I soon started doing things I hadn't done much of in years, hiking, fishing, etc.
I cut out alcohol then because I felt it was taking to much precedence in my life, I was going down a path I didn't like. It's a good thing sometimes to take a break and hit the old reboot button.
Matter of fact, I may do it again.

if you get yer ass off the sofa and go do stuff... you don't have to 'give up' anything
life is all about enjoying it man. Go for a walk around stone mountain, eat a cupcake, have a beer, go out back and play tag with your kids, tickle your wife, take the stairs.
all of that is life... even the chocolate chip pizza.
just don't hammer the whole thing by yourself.
