I gave up soft drinks a long, long time ago, and I don't miss them at all. It seems really odd to me to order a Coke with lunch. And I'm appalled by these Big Gulp portions of soft drink. Yuck!

He claimed they were much more harmful to my teeth than sweets. Since then my teeth have improved dramatically and I have no problems with them. I really would recommend giving them up if you have weaker teeth. My sister has really strong teeth and has continued to drink fizzy drinks without any problems, but for those with weak teeth, giving up carbonated drinks is the way to go!
