Answer 1

Diet drinks will cause you to gain weight. They make you hungry and the substitute sugars are extremely bad for your bones. and ability to absorb nutrition from your food. All carbonated drinks are bad for you. Drink some water. Great stuff and very much underrated.

· It is important to maintain a good diet so you don't compromise your health. Damage done because of lack of nutrition is not worth a nice body. Some diet damage cannot be fixed.
·
· When you deprive your brain, the brain will take other body cells to convert to the elements that it needs. And the cells it takes are BRAIN cells. OOPS. I don't want to lose brain cells to have thin legs. But I would like to have both.

Also, a quick weight loss is usually a water loss and that loss will come back ASAP. You cannot loose FAT more than 2 to 3 pounds a week. Any more than that and you are loosing water and muscle mass (not good)

AND DON'T GO ON A DIET. DECIDE TO MAKE A LIFE CHANGE TO A HEALTHY LIFE STYLE.

1) fruits and veggies, all you want, organic, raw, vine-ripe if possible. Steamed is OK, sautéed is OK even canned or frozen is OK, but lots of them.
2) limited or no meat. Linked to heart diseases, high blood pressure, cancer, arthritis, etc.
3) nothing fried, sauté in olive oils
4) no FAST FOOD- is junk, no nutrition, empty calories
5) NO PROCESSED FOOD. if you can't pronounce it don't eat it.
6) nothing white, salt, sugar, mayo, milk, (or at least in moderation.)
7) NO DAIRY-dairy is great for baby cows; your body does not even digest it properly. check out www.notmilk.com
8) EXERCISE- and be sure to refresh your body with water and fresh fruit
9) NO PROTEIN SUPPLEMENTS. Muscle is made from water, replace the water. You get enough protein from the food you eat, You get more protein from spinach than the supplements you take and your body does not get toxic on food protein the way it will with supplements. Supplements can really tax you liver.
10) Good supplement would be Omega 3, B-12 and Juice Plus+

11) NO CARBONATED DRINKS, or at least limited. They actually dissolve the calcium in your bones.
12) Calories in calories out.

AND DON'T GO NUTS, MODERATION.

Answer 3

Diet pop has no nutritives so you cannot gain from drinking diet pop alone. You must be eating something else or decreasing your activity level. Try keeping a diet/exercise journal for a couple weeks to see what you need to change. Good luck!

Answer 4

a friend quit drinking diet pop, changed her diet and lost weight. The synthetic sweeteners in diet pop can do weird things to your system. Best answer is to eat a balenced diet and get regular exercise.

" Diet" means it has less of the bad things but they still are there. Diet pop is not for helping you lose weight , it just means you have to drink 1 1/2 to do the same damage.

Answer 6

yes they say drinking diet soda is also not good for your body because of the empty carbs it contains....try drinking water instead..or green tea that will also help in loosing weight and skin feeling healthy. you can loose weight quickly if you eat 5-6 times a day less than 350 callories for each meal and exercise atleast half hour every day. you will reach a goal in 2-3 weeks. For sure. Try it.
