Why not water? Its the original and best.
Milk is good.
Really, anything without a lot of sugar/corn syrup.

Ha I'm doing the same thing! I've been drinking alot of green tea lately. It's delicious cheap and good for you. Not the shitty ones, real genuine green tea. (Though I drink the Arizonas once in a while 99cents? what what?)

^Drink the Arizonas sparingly. It's corn syrup.
Water
Seltzer Water
10 Calorie Vitamin Water
Diet Sodas
Milk
Juices (warning - sugar)
Real Tea, green or black
Coffee (just not often - and if you can, drink it black)

I quit about 2 weeks ago. It gets easy after the first week. The first week you keep looking at it, now I just grab a water and take my mind off of it.

also gatorade / powerade is good right | Gatorade/Powerade=HIGH SUGAR so it is a lot like Pop. I mean, I have heard Powerade is good for some electrolyte thing, but honestly, I would prefer water in a workout then anything.
If your going to drink them, I advise in low dosages. No matter then, idk, 16fl oz a day?

For me I started with sugar free juice as it was still sweet but less calories and healthier than pop, or as Australians call it soft drink hahaha.
THen I limited the amount of juice and added more water into everyday life, and whenever I needed a sweet fix I ate some fruit like oranges or apples.
At restaurants if you're not choosing pop or other things, try juice and most importantly ask what they have that's not pop!
