So do you drink anything else besides milk, water, protein shakes, and beer?

Yeah i think that was the point he was trying to get across.

At work all i drink is water and green tea. But moving back home was bit of a nightmare having soda in the house all the time is soooo tempting.

Soda is horrible for your body,destroys liver,teeth... even diet soda is bad for you since it has artifical sweeteners which cause alot of problems over time,switch to water,iced tea,organic juices.

That is pretty much how I am too.. Though the last few months I've been drinking a lot less milk / beer.

Are you sure? Are you sure you don't mean water, tea, and occasionally real fruit? :icon_chee

"Taste" of water wtf. I just drink it because I know I need it. I never savour the "taste".

lol same here.
I used to drink 2 cokes a day for about 3 years, nothing happened. I'd occasionally get stomach cramps but then I'd take a nap and they'd go away no biggie.

my sister hates water. she drinks life water which is not the same and before that she drank regular water with sugar in it.

noobloser is absolutely right, that is a very bad bit of advice.

fruit is not a beverage.

100% orange juice > soda

Maybe better, but not good. Unless of course one of your goals is increasing your chances of diabetes.

Water, Green Tea, 2 fl oz of Vodka + 1 ca Sugar free Red Bull (74 cals of liquid personality):icon_twis

I don't switch to diet because I don't see the point. I work in teh food service industry. In the least insulting way I can say this. The only people that drink diet products are the people that need a lot more than diet products to fix their problem. I just don't see what's so diet about diet drinks. If the only thing that makes them diet is the sugar than that's like taking the nicoteen(sp) out of cigarettes and saying that they are more healthy for you. They've got hundreds of poisonous chemicals in them. It's not just a nocoteen problem.

Or they're diabetic, like my father.

You shouldn't see a point to drinking soda, as it has no nutritional value.

end of thread

Sorry I forgot your father.

You weigh 160 while being 6 feet tall. You probably aren't fat so I don't think calories are a problem. If you are a highly competitive athlete will it affect you? possibly. Is soda worse for your body compared to water? Yes.

Personally, I believe soda is fine. It isn't a big deal. It's not like one sip will cause your body to shut down and convulse from the demon chemicals that are in it.

It should be your issue to tackle. Some of the previous posters have given examples of the harms of soda. If you feel drinking soda is fine for you, then drink it.

Oh and athletes shouldn't drink soda?

BAM.. suck it mofos! Ovechkin drinks coke mid game. Ovechkin=athlete therefore athletes drink soda. You know what he did immediatly following this clip? He scored 2 goals got 2 assists and had sexual intercourse with 16 women. Food for thought...

TOO much is when your drinking more soda then you are water. Its good every now and then cause your body needs at least 40% caffeine a day but more water then soda to help replenish that 70% your body is always losing water the more you drink the better at least 8 glasses a day.
