Yup. Only water. Thats it. I occasionally drink like fruit juice or something, but its been over a year since i've had a soda. Soda makes my stomach hurt. But yeah, 8 or so bottles of water a day.
LOL!! I don't drink milk, never really have. I don't like the taste. I'll eat cereal and then give the milk to the outside cats. In the South, the law is that you must drink Iced Tea, preferably syrupy sweet - I walk a fine line on that - I do decaf tea with sacchrin (most people ask me if I'm sure I'm a native).
Oh man sweet tea. When it's so sweet that your teeth hurt, it's just right.
The only time I use any "sugar substitutes" is when I get unsweetened iced tea at a restaurant. Sugar doesn't dissolve in cold liquid, just sinks, those fake ones dissolve much better.
My husband makes the BEST sweet tea - it's loaded with so much sugar that it's like drinking glucose We call it black tea in our house because we don't add any water to brewed tea.... Although, I worked as a waitress at this cafe in SC and the southern way to make tea there is to brew the tea and in a separate container, dissolve the sugar in hot water, then add the tea to the sugar water, add ice cubes and voila!
I don't think I would function without dairy, hehehe. I LOVE cheese and milk and liquid yogurt are always in the fridge. A few years ago, my mom would even buy milk from a small cow farm close by and then she would skim it and make the butter we ate.That was the best milk and butter I have ever had.
I'm down with butter, but milk and I don't really see eye to eye. I like juices and the occasional soda. I used to absolutely love coffee but I had to quit due to migraines. I now drink tea on occasion, usually decaf but not always. My latest habit is actually pretty bad...I've been drinking a lot of Minute Maid sugar free orangade. It's bad, I know. But somehow it quenches my thirst like nothing else right now. And of course there's the booze which I haven't had any time to enjoy over the past few weeks.
Hmm. Well, I do drink milk sometimes, but usually only Lactaid Milk stuff. Its missing the Lactose in it. If I don't and I have too much milk, my stomach gets incredibly upset and I don't like it very much. While I could drink all the water I could ever want and i'd never get a stomach ache. Soda makes me sick, and juices/tea leave a gross taste in my mouth. I don't know ... I just think that water is totally cool and i'm too cheap to go out and buy myself extra crap to drink.
Not only that, but I don't consider milk much of a drink. I only use it with my Special K cereal. ... mmm. I don't just drink it plain in a glass.
I used to LOVE milk and that was all I drank until....14 when I developed an intolerance for dairy. Or perhaps I always was intolerant, but just pushed through the pain. After that....always water. I can still eat cheese, but not so much. Cheese has less lactic acid in it, according to my nutritionist. I LOVE cheese. Mmmmmmmm.
Evan...you are the type of teacher that was reason why I made Straight A's in school. A teacher told me that when I was young, & as such, when I did not understand something in class...I interrogated the teacher until did understand Good for me, but I think I gave my teachers a sizable head ache lol
Now that I think about it...I do this to my managers at work. ~

Did anyone notice we passed 2000 discussions? :-D
I'm pretty sure at least 50 of those were me asking stupid questions :x ~
I usually tell my students... the only stupid thing you could do is NOT ask a question!

Cheers.
(...well I was planning to anyway since we're having a cookout... but it's just another excuse
