How often do you drink fizzy drinks?

Hey Guys;

Well, I have asked this question once before and am curious as to what people will answer this time round. =P
So, how many fizzy drinks do you drink a day on average (average 330ml drink cans) - if you drink from bottles, turn it into glasses per day. =)

Almost never - because they are actually dehydrating, so I've heard.

I try to avoid them and stick to water, so hardly ever - I do love Lilt Zero though but I only have it now and again as a treat

I exclusively drink either water or Orangina; probably 2/3 of the time it's water.

Almost never the last time I had a fizzy drink was about 5 years ago.

Ive stopped drinking fizzy drinks. I carry around a bottle of water with me n just drink water :smile:

But, I do drink fizzy stuff once in a while like if I go out etc.

Everyone constantly gets at me for not drinking water more often. I much prefer something fizzy and have probably about 2 bottles (a litre in total). And I know I've had the lecture a million times before BLAH BLAH unhealthy, fattening, weight gain, BLAH BLAH.
The thing is it's not full fat cola each time. I'm more often than not having fizzy flavoured water which in comparison to a bottle of "fresh orange" or diluted drink from a supermarket is actually very low sugar and fat.

Fizzy ≠ unhealthy

Not that regularly nowadays, maybe once or twice a month. A few years ago it was like everyday! Was addicted to Tangos and Fantas...

probably energy drinks once or twice a week if i'm doing uni work. When at home I have quite a lot of diet lemonade because it fills me up, so it varies for me.

I always drink fizzy drinks, although they're really bad for me :frown:

I think lilt zero might be my favourite fizzy drink. Or possibly fanta fruit twist.

It varies how much I have. If I'm at a party, not wanting to get drunk, a fizzy drink might be the only non-acoholic option apart from water. So I might have a couple of glasses in that one night.

But I easily go a couple of weeks without wanting a fizzy drink.

Two weekends ago, so about the 25/26th May we went shopping and I bought a 6 pack of lilt zero. I've still got one of them left.

I live off water, juice and milkshakes. Last fizzy drink I properly had (if you don't count the occasional sip of cider or wine) was a cup of lemonade, and it took me an hour to drink half of it. They're so dehydrating and feel really weird in my throat - can't take any more than tiny sips at a time - and they often taste strange. Cream soda and Vimto are quite nice though.
