Too much coke (coca-cola)

I am not if its just me but I am heavily addicted to coca-cola. It has basically replaced water for me. I am not sure how to get over it, its not even a nicotine like addiction. Does anyon have this kind of addiction?

I was addicted to coffee the same way - averaging 5-7 cups a day with the random shot of espresso here and there. Couple weeks ago I dropped down to 1 cup a day and I've stuck with it. I feel better because of it and the afternoon crash doesn't come anymore.

The few times I craved coffee in the afternoon I've replaced it with some kind of tea (what ever I have on hand in Keurig form or from Starbucks) - It's helped.

You won't regret ditching the soda. My experiences:

I have been popping these coke like tasting candies as a replacement, I don't think its helping me at all. :<
Just stop drinking soda. Switch to water. No excuses. You can do it and you must start NOW
