If you stop drinking diet soda can it help you lose weight?

Question

I've been curious.
Some people say no, it's diet.
Then others say yes it will help.
What do you think?

Answer 1

It would certainly help, but you'll need to do more than stop drinking soda if you want to lose weight.

There is no magic weight-loss pill, supplement, fad diet, or juice. The ONLY way to lose weight is to consume less calories than you burn. Brad Pitt didn’t get cut for Fight Club by just not drinking soda, and you won’t either.

Walk for 30 minutes every day including weekends, Mondays, and Fridays. Do at least 30 minutes of weight training each week. Do 60 minutes of additional, higher intensity cardio each week. You don’t need additional equipment—infomercial products like the Ab Lounger, Sauna Belt, etc. are all worthless so don’t waste your money.

Cut back on the foods you eat with high fat and high sugar content. Eat only single servings (read the label) with less than 3 grams trans fat and 3 grams sugars. Your primary source of sustenance should be grilled boneless skinless chicken breasts and canned tuna (in water, not oil). No dairy (except low fat cottage cheese occasionally); no processed meats; no heavy sauces; no chips, cookies, sodas, breads, etc.

Eat breakfast, and eat five small meals per day instead of three big meals. Don’t starve yourself during the day, but if you don't wake up famished, then you ate too much the day before. Stop eating at least two hours before you go to bed.

Get 6 to 8 hours of sleep every night. Turn off the TV and the computer. Sleep is vitally important.

Don't consume alcohol—alcohol is nothing more than empty calories with no nutritional value. Some people will argue that alcohol has some health benefits when consumed in moderation—I’m not debating that—but we’re talking about weight loss here. Lay off the booze if you want to lose the fat.

Drink lots of water, then drink more. Not tea, not Gatorade, not milk. Water. If your urine isn’t almost clear, you need to drink more water.

Good luck.

Answer 3

You can Lose 9 lbs every 11 days after you know these facts:

Low Fat Foods DON'T WORK.........
You cannot lose weight using Low Fat Diets. Low fat foods have been popular for more than 15 years, but yet our society is getting more overweight as each year passes. This fact alone should tell you that eating a purely low fat menu is not the answer to losing weight.

Low Calorie Diets DON'T WORK........
You won't lose weight using a Low Calorie Dieting Plan either. In fact, eating low calories is the worst thing that you can do to your body, since that will only slow down your body's fat burning engine and ruin all chances of losing weight (low calorie diets may allow a few pounds of weight loss for the first few days, but then after that all weight loss comes to a halt --- known as a dieting plateau). You can never get slim by starving yourself.

Low Carb Plans DON'T WORK.......
You'll probably find it extremely difficult to get slim using a Low Carb Dieting Plan. Low carb diets have recently become popular over the last couple years, but the problem with low carb menus is that they are too strict and TOO HARD TO FOLLOW for average people. Low carb menus tend to rob your body of too much energy (carbohydrates) and make it nearly impossible to remain on the program for very long. This is why so many dieters find it difficult to follow a strict low carbohydrate menu.

In fact,the food that you eat can either make you THIN or FAT!!!

Answer 4

It all depends on one thing: Exercise. Normally diet cola will bloat you because carbonated water will effect your metabolism rates. However if you are very active and do exercise 5x a week, than your body should be able to break down any barriers carbonation might play in your metabolic rates. I lost 3lbs in 2 weeks when I switched from carbonation to spring water, however please be aware that I workout 5x week.

The best drinks to lose weight are simply water, coffee (it serves as a diuretic; helps remove excess body water and toxins), and Crystal Light (sugar free and carbonation free). Stick with those and limit your diet colas, and of course, exercise and you will see a difference in no time! Good luck!

Answer 5

yes, because sodas are pretty much rich in sugar. You cut down sugar, you can cut down weight. Unless you're drinking diet sodas (but i would limit to just one can a day though)

Answer 6

Remain faithful to an even more slim protein/green plant diet regime

Answer 7

well soda has a lot of sugar and calories therefore if you replace it with water then it might help because you would be decreasing your caloric intake that is if you don't substitute it for another high calorie beverage

Answer 8

Do 45 minutes cardio workouts a few times a week

Answer 9

avoid eating while rading listening songs and watching tv at your home or keep by kepping your hands busy

Answer 10

Walk between stores that will be in close proximity (don't drive).
