Never drinking soda again....

[dprociak]

....now that I realized how many calories are actually in them.  Ok so I've always known soda is not healthy or any of that crap but once you start looking into calories it's just crazy how you can just stop drinking soda and instantly start losing weight...Been 2 months and I have dropped 13lbs (From 178 to 165) of bad weight.  I only really drank soda when I ate a meal 2-3x times a day and the rest of the day was water for the most part.

i don't think it works like that for everyone.  i drink like one mexican coke a day.  doubt i'd go from 145 to 130. 

good job though bro, don't stop at soda.  eat healthier and exercise a little to go with it.

dog... you had these?

i'm the type of dude who just believes in moderation.  i drink maybe 90 ounces of water a day and sweat like crazy in 110 degree heat so a soda wont make me fat.  same with diner.  i'll eat black beans and rice and a piece of catfish.  it's all gravy because i'm active.  just don't OVER eat.  eat natural and organic stuff and you're fine.  at least it works for me.

I stick to diet because I enjoy the taste. I've read that it still promotes weight gain though.

 

[Mcflyy]

But these are soooo good.

yeah, if it tastes sweet it still causes your insulin to spike.  when your insulin spikes, you eat.  so it's like an indirect weight gain.  i'd rather drink the full throttle real deal cane sugar natual soda than the diet stuff all day.  at least my body knows what to make of it.

 

[snowboardingpanda]

Mexican Cokes and Jarritos all use natural sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup. Not sure if that helps lol.

Soda appreciation thread in disguise?

 

[bombbiggidyphil]

I'm more worried about the amount of sugar than the calories......as I sip my Mt. Dew.

If you drink nothing but soda and cut it out completely, you'll notice a loss in your fat within a week or two. No joke. Found that out way back in HS.

[mplsdunk]

nah, natural sugar is better than high fructose.

correct me if i'm wrong somebody but real sugar is glucose and glucose is easier for you to digest then fructose.  it's been a while but i think i'm on the right track here.

 

really though excessive amounts of anything will make you fat. soda is all bad for you but the real sugar is def the lesser of two evils.

 

[joe cool23]

I haven't drank a soda in years.

I won't lie though, I do miss root beer.

 

[balloonoboy]

Nothing will stop me from drinking orange soda.

Can't imagine not having a chilled one at least once every other day.

 

[innovazn2]

 i quit smoking recently but my soda intake has gone up smh
it sucks

 

[hymen man]

I'm not completely cut off, I have one when I go out to eat with a lot of friends if I'm not wanting beer... but I've cut down heavily over the last few months.. and don't plan on having it regularly like I used to. Water is mainly my go to now.. no calories to worry about!

As a soda addict/abuser, its hard to quit. I can get by for a month soda free but when times get hard I drown my sorrows in Pepsi or restaurant fountain Coke (cant drink it from a bottle/can). I did somehow grow a distaste for Dr Pepper which was my drink of choice most my life. Now I cant stand it (or MR Pibb).
