rewarding yourself

If you struggle with making healthy choices, how do you reward yourself for making good choices?
I've been struggling with my decision to give up soda ever since DH came home because he drinks so much soda, and I now have a bunch of soda in the fridge. I see it and smell it on a regular basis, and the only thing that has kept me from drinking any is that it's all diet. (Bleh.)
So I rewarded myself today for my "good choice to avoid soda" with fast food lunch.
And then I realized that fast food probably wasn't the best reward for this particular struggle. My logic for it was that I ordered sweet tea, and sweet tea is healthier than soda...right?
Any ideas on better ways to motivate myself to keep avoiding soda? Preferably free (so shopping or a trip to the salon would be out) and non-food related.

Go online and find some super nasty soda facts. Like: soda has as many grams of sugar as a candy bar. When you see a can of pop tell yourself how it's going to ruin the enamel on your teeth. Tell you
i dont really drink soda anymore and i am trying to stop eating candy too. i try to mentally remind myself how those things make me feel whenever i have a craving for them. i'm lactose intolerant and so even a little candy is like the death of me
