Current Events > Attn fit people from CE: I Quit drinking sodas

(+) Yeah! (+)

The only soda I've been thinking the past couple of years is Coke zero but I guess Is not that bad for cellulitis or having a flat stomach. Idk if it's worth quiting it *.* As it is sugar free.

Edith: also post pics of yourself to see if you're really fit.

Diet sodas are ok as they have 0 calories

---

You have an increased risk of diabetes drinking diet soda. Just drop it entirely, try to get into sparkling water, like Deer Park, Aha, Bubly, etc. They have a flavor but aren't sweet, but you adapt quick. Water is your friend also.

I will check them out, thank you.

Why do you have an increased risk of diabetes?

I'd assume an increased risk of some other illness since it's just a bunch of sweetener/chemicals

---

Nice! I'm proud of you.

The studies done from Israel have never been replicated. The diabetes risks with diet sodas is scant

There's virtually dozens of sources online from doctors stating the same thing, i'll go by the information from them that is still currently posted.

• Youre consuming few to no calories but gaining no nutritional benefit.
• Its full of potentially harmful additives.
• Long-term diet soda drinking is still associated with weight gain and other health risks.
• Research shows an increased risk of diabetes and metabolic syndrome with both diet soda and regular soda intake.

Just Google diet soda and diabetes

I was fit at a point in my life. That point was why I only drank water no matter what.

How the fuck can you get diabetes from something with no actual sugar

It's like people who say ' if you don't eat enough, you gain weight!". Huh? How? Does your body pull energy from another dimension there the laws of thermodynamics don't exist?

Tc I drink diet soda all the time .I don't have diabetes.

It does make me constipated though <_<

The only downsides from drinking diet soda frequently are 1). that certain artificial sweeteners have negative impacts on GI bacteria, which can affect the brain and linked to some neurological/degenerative diseases later on in life, 2). certain artificial sweeteners can actually still trigger an insulin response and trick your body into releasing insulin, which lowers your blood sugars and makes you hungrier, and 3). some of the additives also have negative impacts on health, such as some preservatives and artificial colors (the caramel coloring in colas for example can create sticky proteins called AGEs in your blood, which contribute to oxidative stress and inflammation, such as diabetes and obesity).

Other than that they are perfectly healthy :)

I'll still treat myself to a Coke Zero every once in a while, but I generally try to drink no diet sodas at all... if I need something, I have either Zevia cans at home, or I have a sparkling water maker and stevia/monkfruit droplets that have flavorings like lemon, orange, vanilla, cola, etc.

I quit soda when I went to college and it was a lot harder than I thought

I went back to it a couple years later and it literally tasted completely different. Not nearly as good. Haven't been a fan since

You just gotta force yourself. It's worth it

I drink soft drink only rarely now (like if I'm having a pizza) about once a week. I used to drink a can a day and you don't realize how shit you felt when you quit. I was always bloated, my skin felt like shit, I was tired and had no energy, my teeth felt horrible. Now I mostly just drink water, sparkling water, coffee and tea.

And on the plus side when you do limit to having a soft drink like once a week or so they taste nice and somewhat refreshing but don't come with all the bad shit.

---

Yeah, all sodas are shit. If youre really trying to be health conscious, Topo Chico is a treat.

---

I used to drink a ridiculous amount of soda when I was younger. Now I cant drink it anymore. Went from mostly soda and juice to water and unsweetened iced tea like a decade ago and haven't looked back. I dont miss soda at all, the thought of that sweet sugary goop disgusts me now.

Hence why I give a bit of detail in my post as to why specifically they are attributed to certain health risks. I can link studies as well.

I stopped drinking soda all together a month ago. And stopped eating bread too.

Bread and soda are 2 of the top worst offenders of empty calories lol

Cutting them out temporarily makes eating healthier much more sustainable after you find that balance. Once you do, you can literally eat whatever, as long as you don't go overboard.

This.

Besides is far more difficult for girls to lose weight unlike guys. Girls bodies were literally designed to store fat while you boys have it easy, so I guess I won't ever gain a six pack drinking soda and eating bread >:(

That's why proper fitness is important with the proper diet. Girls gotta lift weights too, it's not just for guys. And you also can't rely just on cardio. Cardio is definitely important, but it is only half the answer. I tell my girlfriend all the time. Muscle mass corresponds directly with metabolism. Muscle mass requires more energy to maintain than fat mass. So more muscle uses energy, and eating less carbs at a caloric deficit also boosts fat mobilization, as does intermittent fasting.

Lifting, running and eating healthy will give you the results you want, but you gotta do it smart and correct. You cannot be lazy and cut corners with things like diet pills and cheat days. It requires a lot of discipline and consistency, but the feeling you get is 10000% worth the effort.
