With fizzy drinks I found it very easy to shift towards flavored seltzers instead of it’s the fizz specifically. And if it’s sodas… Zero sugar soda tastes 99% the same as regular due to the mix of multiple sweeteners. Totally different from diet sodas which usually just use one or two, usually aspartame which also has a strong aftertaste.
If possible for chocolate, higher quality products often will hit that craving better than the cheap candy bar type stuff with 5x the amount of sugar.
It gets easier if you go 100% cold turkey for a few months; I stopped any kind of refined sugar in like 2016 and now more subtle sweetnesses stand out, and the occasion I eat things like ice cream with chocolate or a glazed jelly donut makes me physically ill.
I was recently given a monster and holy shit people drink that, by choice? Why is there so much??

Even more amazing is that people paint the Monster logo (the three claw marks) on their fucking cars. Imagine getting your sense of self-worth from your overpriced energy taurine drink of choice.
I had this too. After a month without sugar, I lost the taste for it. I can do a few spoons of icecream or a tiny bit of cake, but that’s it. I can eat a shit ton of sweet fruit though. I ate 4 mangoes in a day. (Don’t do that.)
I really struggle with this one. I love sugary treats. Chocolate, fizzy drinks, etc.

You’re not my supervisor!
Don’t do drugs.
Hint: sugar is a drug
