Ive posted this before I'm a coke zero junkie,lol well it did put weight on my mId section and I Finaly decided to stop drinking it. And now over a week later 10 days I cant beleive the difference in my mid section now and how it went down and still will get smaller. The bloat the caffeine is horrible from CZ . Coke zero pop it all sucks and when you stop drinking it you will see such a improvement on your body
not a pop drinker at all...never was. MAYBE a couple times a month i'll have a glass of pop or something but i usually will have a water....
I've never had a hard time staying away from pop. Its the beer that gets me.
0 cal 0 sugar and it made a difference? You think the same goes for diet coke, diet Pepsi? Currently Drinkibg 5-6 cans of it ed and having no issues getting lean so far.Quote:

i was like you fuzo. i still have one once a week but quit drinking them daily when i realized they effected me.
on a similar note: after stopping the diet soda i started a PH balance diet and while i have not lost any weight, my skin seems clearer, and my cardio is better by 15% or so.
Thanks for info guys, fat loss and cardio are great right now but sounds like I should cut back and see what happens. I need something with a little flavor, maybe crystal light???Quote:

Also, there is research suggesting that your body responds to artificial sweeteners as if it is sugar. Man, I love drinking a pepsi, but drinking water has to be the only way. Everything you read says to avoid everything but water.Quote:

First off, Fuzo- congrats to you for breaking your Coke 0 addiction! :)
I also like Coke 0, and also Pepsi Max. I drink 2 of them a day, it's the only thing I drink besides a TON of water and Green tea. I really enjoy the taste, and have always figured, if it's just two a day, can that really harm me?
Although this week, I did buy some Zevia (it's soda sweetened with Stevia) and while it's very expensive, it's REALLY good! (they came out with a Grape flavor that is amazing. I have always loved Grape flavored anything, but in sodas, no brand has ever come out with a diet Grape)..........anyways, I am now trying to have the one Pepsi Max or Coke 0 with lunch, and one Zevia for dinner....and maybe I will be able to wean myself off all together.
I drink over 100 oz of water a day, along with the tea, so I guess that's how I justify my "need" for the soda! ;)
FUZZY- Im a Pepsimax fiend myself LOL
I was going through many cans of coke zero a day and I mean many. I havent withdrawl any from stopping but I have picked up my old drink caffeine free diet pepsi whic just a few a day but nothing like coke zero. If people can just stop or even reduce the anount of these caffeine free or zero free drinks you will see a huge change in your body and how you feel
I got a gallon jug with a spigot and I fill it with water and throw seven green tea bags in it and shake it up and let it sit for a bit. I figure thats as good as it gets. No sugar or sweeteners and it tastes good.
Ive done that too Dzone- I love it, sometimes I add lemons
Oh ya, I forgot to add lemons. Ya, Ketsugo, Thats a perfect drink. How many tea bags to you put in a gallon of water? I buy a big box of the cheapest green tea bags they sell.Quote:

Ok, I am going to stop the Pepsi Throwbacks . Those are amazing. You can get hooked fast on that crap. Even one a day is too many. Water and green tea and thats it from now on.
