I HATE drinking water!

[Del Coqui]

Cold glass of coca-cola.

STICK TO COKE, WE WOULDN'T WANT YOU TO INCREASE YOUR ******* DISCHARGES BY DRINKING H2O.

I used to drink Coke all the time. One night I got so sick of it and promised myself I'd never drink it again. The night of Marquez Diaz actually so I know the date Feb 28th.

So been drinking water since then (which I used to hate) but now have it all the time. Its effortless. Also my skin has cleared up. used to be dry, especially around my knuckles, now smooth as hell

Also I didn't realise lot of the timesmy stomach would feel bloated or ill was down to the coke!!

I've prob had 4 cokes since February, whereas I used to have about 2-3 a day lol

The skin on my hands was dry as sand, but since I've been forced to drink orange squash, they look a lot better.

Still love my coke though.

This I gonna tell you is true; I promise...

All in my family we drink a lot of coke, and my father used to have his 2.5 liter coke with him every day when he was working, he was carpenter and worked outdoor. One day, after he drank ALL his coke, he felt to much sick, weakened and with shacking legs and hands and we took him to emergency hospital. By the evening we were told that he got a stroke, this was due a sudden high glucose. This was two and a half years ago and since then my father lost like 60 pounds, can not eat by the mouth ( he eats by a gastric Foley catherer) and eventually is losing his vision. He also can not walk fast and lost sensibility on arms and legs. I feel very sad for my old man, and sometimes I think I'm following his same path

I feel like I'm going down the same road as your father.

I have to take these pills to keep my stomach acid down and I have stomach ulcers. I think it's because I used to drink that cheap nasty coke. 20p a bottle stuff. I've also got hypertension, but I stopped taking my medication for it.

Last month I thought I was having some sort of stroke. I looked it up and it sounded like a TIA.

I used to despise water until I forced myself to drink ice cold water every day and now its all I drink....It has to be really cold though or else it tastes HORRID!

Good clean water, preferably spring water or purified water, should be the most important element one can consume on a daily basis.

It does help reduce a myriad amount of illnesses.

An occasional soda pop and glass of juice is ok, but should not ever take precedence over water.

A good read when you have the time is Your Body's Many Cries For Water.

Take heed.

Yeah water sucks especially for the
"884 million people who lack access to safe water supplies, approximately one in eight people" no wonder "every 15 seconds, a child dies from a water-related disease"
But some of you obviously are precious little princesses that donīt like the taste of water. Why because you are spoilt pampered little ****s whose lives are controlled by marketing companies. Ask some of the starving kids living in sub saharan africa what they think of water. They donīt have the same priviliges as you. Thats why so many of you younger generation are weak and soft, spoilt and damn ignorant.
