    I gave up soda at my original attempt at weight loss, when I was 13. I effortlessly lost 20lbs since all I drank was soda. Now i really can't stomach more than a taste of it, unless it's mixed with liquor.

    That being said, I just had a beer and a cadbury cream egg.

    I'm NOT giving up my carbonated drinks! :laugh:

    Nice attitude. Sounds like you just don't want it bad enough, then. There's no food I wouldn't give up if it meant I having the body of my dreams.

    You don't have to give up the things you like completely to get the body you want. I think it's a poor attitude to be sarcastic and assume someone isn't committed to their fitness journey because they don't follow an internet graphic saying you need to give up carbonated drinks.

    here we go!

    Perhaps if you didn't limit yourself so much you wouldn't be so snarky....

    I followed my friends here. They eat ice cream and have amazing bodies.

    That makes them E-L-I-T-E or trolls depending on your perspective.

    :drinker:

    elite trolls perhaps?

    Actually, studies are finding that we have an imbalance of omega fatty acids. Too many 3s, not enough 6 and 9s. So we really need to eat more foood.

    Honestly, I'm jealous. There is just no way I could consume those things and have the body I want. so STOP BRAGGING! lol.

    :laugh: Why not?? I'm not a special snowflake.

    *here is where I insert all my beliefs about clean eating... see pop-tart thread to avoid obnoxious redundancy.*
    and, I use all my calories already. 1/4 cup of ice cream just doesn't pack the satiating punch that other foods do for me.

    See the diet soda there is going to trick your brain into thinking you're getting sugar, which is going to make you want more sugar, but then that ice cream you are eating is going to totally cancel that out.

    I..... what? :laugh:

    then you go into insulin induced starvation mode.....

    Lol this is so funny. I have seen people with amazing bodies and they don't forever do away with everything that might not be good for them. They mostly eat clean and then sometimes eat things they like. Hell, I have seen people who work out hard, eat stuff I would never touch on a daily basis, but they do and still look insane. So thats just melarkey.

    I am trying to cut back on carbonated drinks..

    I lost 27lbs before drinking diet cokes and hated plain water.

    But now I am drinking 2 litres + of water a day and I have removed diet coke from my body, I feel 100 times better. When I weaned myself off I had horrible headaches, bloating, I felt awful. It shows what it does to you.

    I also feel more awake and satisfied, not as hungry. I guess thats my brain not looking for sugar.

    Sometimes I crave the idea of a can of diet coke, cold and fizzy. But I find as my tastebuds are changing, I don't even like it that much! This is from someone who would drink 5 cans a day without fail when at university studying.

    You CAN lose weight and drink diet cokes, but it isn't good for you to drink them.

    How's the golden Oreo ice cream? I just polished off all the birthday blast ice cream in my freezer so now I'm working on the appe cinnamon crumble ice cream. I almost got the golden Oreo one.

    I had some processed food with a load of E160a (used as an artificial colour* generally.)

    But it was mashed carrorts.
    However, it was both processed AND had this chemical in it; so that is 2 for the bad vs 1 for the good, leaving me with -1 healthy points, yes?

    *Yes, we spell colour with a u in English :).

    Slightly disappointing. The ice cream part is kinda artificial and tastes a bit like marshmallow fluff. The Oreo chunks are good though.

    I don't think so...I think they're more like oreos. They're hard outside and have cream in the middle. Nobody can make me give up those things.

    Some people have tried to give me crap, I never eat it and seldom take it, Many people I know are full of it.

    I do eat ice cream, chocolate, and pastries several times a week

    I have lost pounds and inches consistently while eating these kinds of foods.
