...you gotta ditch the soda altogether. I used to drink at least a 6 pack a day. But, when I went totally onto the IBS diet, I gave it up.
I hate water too. I drink herbal tea all day long. About 10 cups, with a little stevia added. Since I added the stevia, I can't drink it without it (which is bad since stevia is expensive....a little cheaper at Trader Joes which just got a DF version).
Seriously, on time I was gonna cheat and drink a soda, and I could only drink a few sips because it tasted like acid and I knew it was going to blow me up even more than usual.
I swear, I drank soda by the packs for years (grew up on soda, not milk)...but I honestly don't think I miss it that much. You can really get into some herbal conconctions and experimenting with combining flavors.
Good luck.
