As for drinking something all day, I do. For one my water consumption has always been high, my body is accustomed to it, and if I don't consume that much I
'crave it'. Two, I talk allllll day long. 'Nuff said. I consume a lot of caffeine, but it has minimal to no effect on me, so I don't worry
about it overly (neither do doctors). What you can do is for every diet Pepsi you drink, drink an equal quantity of water. At the worst you'll be drinking
the equivalent of a case of water a day 
. It's the bubbles you crave I bet, so tea won't really cut it. I drink coffee in the morning, and depending
upon if I'm at work or home, iced coffee, tea (unsweetened. If it's sweetened, down here in the south, you are probably better off drinking a soft
drink!! It's almost syrupy!), or diet DP. Tons and tons of water. I used to drink between 1-2 a day.
You might want to try mixing your own italian sodas or spritzers. I know it's the carbonation that I want. Any juice (I use orange) and spritzer; FF flavored syrups and spritzer, etc. You get teh bubbles, and not the calories (unless you use juice. That packs a whallop!)
Good luck!
