you have to remind yourself that what your putting into your body isnt good for you, especially if your trying to lose weight. Sugar is something you dont need that much of , especially proccessed sugar, if you want something sweet go eat some grapes, or an apple,or a peach..think of how you need to eat healthy and that all the calories and sugar your consuming will turn convert into fat

Unfortunately there is no recipe for stopping bad habits except to just DO IT. When you go to put something in your mouth ask yourself what the nutritional value of it is. What is it going to do for you? It must provide you with necessary energy and fuel. If it doesn't, you are only satisfying some mental urge in a self-defeating way. If you need something to suck on, start carrying your water bottle around with you. If you feel you must have something sweet try fruits like DJ said or just put a little electrolyte drink, lemon or lime juice in your water for flavor.
Bad habits are just that, bad. Stop it!!! :)
