If I drink one can of soda every weekend would I gain weight?

Question

I have a question regarding soda and I just want to know about it.
If I drink one can of soda every weekend would I gain weight?

Answer 1

One can of soda a week won't do anything, so long as you are active and exercise regularly.

Answer 2

I have been drinking a can of coke every day for the past 15 years. (I cannot stand coffee) I have only gained about 7 lbs, and I would think that it because I have had 2 kids and I'm not very active. Imagine the weight loss if I quit drinking soda and started exercising.

But anyway, one can a week will probably not hurt too much.

Answer 3

One can is better than the people who drink one can a day. I cut out soda and juice for a year in order to lose weight. If you are just trying to maintain or are not overweight I'd say 1 a week is ok... but still soda isnt healthy.

Answer 4

Well, I read that if 3 cans of soda per week, for a whole year, you could gain an average of about 16 pounds. An average pop can {6 oz } has 10 tablespoons of sugar.

Answer 5

No, actually, my friend used to drink like, 8 soda's a day. After eventally cutting down to about 3/day, he lost weight!!! One soda will not hurt you, but it will probably make you crave more!!!! So watch out. Drinking one soda a week is like eating one candy bar/week. It won't make you gain, but it won't help!!

Answer 6

Not from the soda...your possible weight gain would be more of a result of what you ate, how much you ate, and the amount and level of exercise you did or didn't do during the rest of the week

Answer 7

Nah.. If you drink soda everyday, then maybe. If you are real worried about it, drink diet. I finally made the switch and after a few months, I can't tell much of a difference. Faygo's diets taste just like the regular kind!

Answer 8

Of course not.
If you drink a lot of cans like 5 cans a day everyday, then yes, that excess sugar and empty calories would put on the pounds. A can isn't bad at all.

Answer 9

I received weight when I drank sweet stuff like warm rattling or Schnapps. Now I drink gin and weightloss application tonic (gin= 60 energy, weightloss application tonic = 0) and decrease myself to three per nighttime. I actual have lost 4 pounds this week.

Answer 10

That's what, 200 calories? I don't see how an extra 200 calories a week can cause weight gain. Now, if it was one every -day-, that might be different, depending on your activity level.
