    the ones we buy there are 12 in each. And I will drink at least 24-36 cans a day. And I dont sip them either. If I have been out side working or cleaning snake cages or something I will actually drink an entire can in one gulp. And I just think its time to stop.

    Make smoothies out of frozen berries, french vanilla yogurt, and a little water blended up and pureed in an average blender... This is very healthy to drink and will become your new addiction... Then start increaes the amount of water you put in there until you start drinking solely water... Drink a bottle of water with every meal, and eventualy (i know this happened with me), whenever you drink something unhealthy, you will Feel It!

    ORRRRR OR OR OR....
    You can enter a mountain dew drinking contest.. Win it and use the money to get lipo-suction and therapy...

    But i think my first way is a better idea...

My mother also told me about the diabetic thing saying im drinking way to many sodas a day. We buy 10-15 cases every time we are at walmart and I think its time to just stop. Thats just way to much. And I didnt really notice anything until after I started gaining weight I relized my pants were a little tight and then I started to notice it.
    When you are able to go a long time without it do you get tired. If so it is the letdown from the sugar high and the caffiene

    When I was in the Army we used to drink a ton of Mt. Dew, we even had wives/girlfriends sending it overseas to us in care packages.

    I just stopped buying it and buying bottled water instead, besides feeling better it saves alot of money.

    I just googled mountain dew callories and it said 110 cal in 8 oz. So if each can is 8 oz and you drink 36 in a day that is 3,960 cals just in soda...

    Yes I do and I think that has a lot to do with me getting ill and grumpy becuase I get so tired.

    I do not drink sugared sodas, and can tell instantly if someone hands me one. You can even smell the sugar and oil in it. I will never go back to drinking sugared sodas

    I know exactly how that feels we are spending a ton of money on it. Like I said we get at least 10 cases a week usually its around 15 and I get two bottles everytime we stop at a gas station or if we go anywhere. We drove to the beach about a month ago and I went through 3 12 packs in a 4 hour drive to myrtle beach
