    ThIs is a reason, on my change in eating habits, I decided to "never drink my calories". I decided that I would only drink filtered tap water, black tea, black coffee (no sugar). Stopped drinking soda, fruit juice, alcohol, smoothies.

    My calories (and nutients) were precious, and I wanted the satisfaction of eating them (if that makes sense).

    After the first week it became very easy, and have not touched liquid calories since April.

    Makes total sense. most of my liquid calories had been pop and now i've cut that down to a few a month. I don't drink any of those drinks on the list, but it is amazing what they equal out to.
