    Sorry for the zombie thread. :P I was looking up the person behind "danceswithwow" and stumbled across his posts here and was fascinated, horrified, and am still waiting for my eyes to stop bleeding. I worked with him recently IRL for a short period. He didn't come across quite so ridiculous in person. LOL

    I didn't know he existed irl or online until you resurrected this old beast, and now I'm seriously intrigued...

    I'm only eating 1200 calories a day. I thought maybe I was replacing food but I was very cautious not too.

    From my experience:

    A couple things could be factoring in Completely cutting out just soda is not going to cut it. It has to be all the sugary, empty-caloried drinks. So make sure you are drinking only water if you really want to make it count, and make sure to get 8-12 cups on a regular basis. Watch your sodium too--It can make you retain. Don't eat too little (if you can help it), or too much.

    On top of all that, cutting out soda completely is only supposed to make a difference of a few pounds in a whole year from something I read. So you gotta really make sure you are getting some good workouts in. That is where the weight loss really comes in to factor.

    Current guidelines suggest that drinking that much is not needed because you get water from veggies and other food. It's notice build.. There is a really simple way to tell if you need more fluid. It sounds gross but take a look at your urine. The darker it is, the more dehydrated you are.

    Eta- fixed
