You can just stop taking hydrochlorothiazide and valsartan (there are no withdrawal symptoms as such) but will need to see your doctor for your blood pressure, etc. to be monitored. Doctor will need to see if Coreg alone can manage your blood pressure. If Coreg is causing side effects as well than your medicines may need to be reviewed.
With regards to weight gain, yes soft drinks can contribute to weight gain so maybe decrease your intake.

thanks your answer was helpful
