Thread: 3 Surprising Reasons to Give Up Soda

Awesome post! I havent drank that crap in 6 years

I admit to being guilty of knocking back a Diet Coke when I just can't stomach any more water.

Haven't touched that stuff in 10 years. Saved money and lost weight

I've cut way back over the years.

Looks like taking it down to zero consumption starts right now.

Thanks for the post Prince!

There's no saving me, diet coke owns me. I'm gonna need inpatient care to stop that habit.

Ahead of the game....rarely drink soda, but I do drink a ton of Crystal Lite.... which I'm sure is also bad for you!!

x2 on that Crystal Lite!

Good post

Haven't touched a pop for 10 years and now I have the reasons not to touch one for another 100

I've always been against sodas. I mean there is a reason we exhale CO2. It's poisonous to our bodies, so why would we want to put it right back in?

Soda, blah...

Give me a diet beer, anyday!

I always challenge some women at work to give it up for 2 weeks, they do and lose anywhere from 3-5 lbs...but then go right back to drinking it and taking diet pills. People just kill me.

Now I'm craving a diet Fresca!!

Yes, soda is really not good for health. inhaling CO2 is just like inviting the thief to our home

Thanks for the thread.

I stopped drinking soda about 2 weeks ago and upped my daily intake of cold water. Your body burns calories just to heat cold water to your body temp. So far I don't see a whole lot in the way of weight loss but I feel a helluva lot better.

good post,I think i should give up soda.

I knew there was a reason I always avioded the stuff besides the fact that it murders my throat... Glad to know we finally have science that is catching up to common sense.

Surprised me

I'm a Coke Zero abuser. Right now I'm staring down a bottle of Steaz zero calorie sparkling green tea.

it's worth to read.

well done,thanks man.

Mexican Coke (in the glass bottle) is my bane. Fortunately it's prohibitively expensive (a buck or more for 12 oz.) so I only drink it on special occasions (couple times a month). It's the old formula that we used to have in the U.S.

Cigars are the same way...can't afford to smoke 'em often enough to be a problem (once a year maybe)

Vanilla coke zero but only with Bacardi oakheart...that good good.

soga means unhealthy.
