Guest guest Posted December 22, 2003 Report Share Posted December 22, 2003 If those cans of Coke and Montain Dew are not diet, you might as well just take a few teaspoons of sugar and got directly to mouth... Regular soda or fruit juices are b-a-d. If you are a junkie, have the diet versions and maybe cut down some...and water, unfortunately, is something you need...and is very good for your body and the fat loss process. Even drinking huge amount of diet pop can be dehydrating so maybe for every diet soda, have a few glasses of water. Maybe look into ice teas (without sugar) or Crystal Lite. I love Diet Coke with Lemon and I know there are others that can drink 2 2liter bottles at a clip...I do but I am also very dedicated to drinking about 100 ozs. of water a day. I would try to find solutions to things...like if you love Coke, do Diet Coke. You may have to be creative in the process with what you eat and drink, but it can be done. I am still waiting for the Diet Champagne... Good luck! > Gloria, I just looked at your pics!!! Awesome results!
