Dr. Pepper

I have a weekness, and Dr. Pepper is it.
I'm trying to cut back and I think I'm almost there, but the cravings are crazy at times.
I read in men's health the lasting affects that carbonated, super-syrup'd beverages can have on the body and I don't want to think about them.
Something about drinking a Dr. Pepper, especially the first drink, is about as refreshing as it gets, well except for Bud Light, but that's another problem.

I want, need, should drink more water.
But while I'm staring at the vending machine and I'm thinking, "a water machine is right over there and a Pepper would get rid of the morning yawns." "I don't want to drink coffee, its too damn hot outside."
That's when I push the Dr. Pepper button.
But it's getting better.
I have redirected my hand at times to shoot directly for the Dasani selection. Just as cool and refreshing, but it doesn't creating a heavy tingling sensation feeling in the back of my throat when I drink it.
Is that bad?
And sometimes its not just Dr. Pepper. I have a sweet tooth for Big Red and Cherry Coke. What's a guy to do.
I just can't go out and find another addiction. Or can I?
