Soda, Sugar and Calories

I am a big fan of The Biggest Loser. Last night's show focused on the calories and sugar grams in regular soda. I felt this important enough to reiterate here for those that don't watch the show & don't pay attention to this very important fact. Regular soda is LOADED WITH CALORIES AND SUGAR! For those that drink a lot of regular soda, count up how many ounces or cans of soda you are having each week & multiply those calories out for the year. You will be astounded by how many extra calories you drink each week, month, year. By just cutting back and/or eliminating those calories, think about how many less pounds can be added to your weight loss goal. Try cutting back & substituting with diet soda or water. It will be well worth your time. There are plenty of flavored zero calorie waters or you can even make your own by cutting up slices of your favorite fruits & adding to a glass or pitcher of water. Also, PUR water filters now offer their filters in flavors!!!!! Another benefit of less soda, lower tooth decay from the sugar! Take this one step and you will be on your way to a healthier body!
