Day 3 down...I too find the cravings crazy at night...I tell myself that if I can hold off until morning that I can eat whatever I please (ice cream, chocolate, junkfood) Come morning I sure don't want any of that stuff. Going to be a long month...but OH SO WORTH IT. Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Calorie Counter

Someone told me that sodas promote belly fat!!!!! YUK!!!! so I gave them up and replaced them with water. I know that if I have just one...I…

Welcome to the site...

I heard that diet sodas promote belly fat...so the day I started on here (2 1/2 weeks ago) I thought I would try giving up my only drink ( I consumed 6-8 cans a day) and replace with water...not sure if it is a myth or not, but Ive lost 9 lbs already...in 2 weeks...
