I am in the process of cutting out all drinks and sticking with water only! I did this once before and got terrible headaches, and felt blah. I dont drink a lot of pop, but juices so I guess its more sugar. I already switched to stevia raw sugar and lowered sweet intake. How can I prepare, and keep my body from the urge of wanting these items? I know it takes time for the body to adjust, I just dont wanna feel like crap. Not really looking to lose weight, just wanna be healthier!

You will definitely get caffeine headaches, but drinking lots of water will help alleviate them and make them not so bad. And try using Midol rather than just tylenol or ibuprofen...it has caffeine as a main ingredient so it may help you feel better!

DON'T go cold turkey with the caffeine! Cut back on how much you drink. Caffeine headaches are awful!

As for sugary drinks, I would cut back slowly as well, and maybe only allow yourself one a day or something like that. If you cut them out completely, you might crave them more.

Instead of drinking coffee, eat an apple. You shouldn't get a caffiene headache and after a little while you won't really need the apple. But it's good to eat it anyways!
