Last year I replaced soda and diet soda with hot tea, even in the summer I drink hot tea, ofcourse I have to go to the bathroom a lot but that's okay. I have lost almost 15 pounds in the past few months, I have changed my diet to leafy greens, vegitables, less bread, less pizza, less white rice and less pastas. I still eat pizza and pastas, but I eat a very minimal amount,I eat just enough to make me full not stuff me and make me feel heavy, and I replace my hunger for fat foods with spinach, and veggies, I also stopped drinking the soda, and I felt better mentally too. Soda makes me too hyper and makes me feel weird. I remember at the mental ward they wouldn't allow patients to drink soda, it really does something to your brain and your body.

Well I just wanted to share with everyone that tea has many health benefits, I was just reading about it all, trust me it helps you loose weight and helps fight against cancers and other health problems....

Pascal that is great, congrats on the healthy diet and weight loss !

Interesting what you said about soft drinks, I had it on my grocery list for today but think I will drop it. I occasionally decide to wean myself off it but never get too far because I like the taste too much

Congratulations on making your lifestyle healthier! While weight loss can be good, the steps you took will improve your overall health so much, and I think that's the most important part.

I've been trying to do the same (replacing all the huge portions of greasy fattening food with equally delicious but better-for-me food in more realistic portions) but it's been slow going.

*yaaay* congrats on the weight loss and lifestyle change ^_^ I've finally detoxed my body from soda addiction (yes it does get addictive).. I spent the whole day in bed with a seriously bad headahce that no tylenol in the world would rid me off

but I've been "clean" for over a week now and I feel so much better!! I sleep better and I'm not so hyper-moody anymore (except for The Pill's effect).. its a good thing what you did, and it does bring such joy to see the scale when losing ^_^ keep it up!

I know what you mean, eating healthier makes you feel so much better, and I can still have treats as well.

Kudos on the tossing the soda out of your life. It CAN get addictive. Also, I give you props on abstinence from excessive carb fillers, like pasta, pizza, and bread. I really love my carbs, since I'm an active woman, but sometimes I, myself, go a little overboard with my carb intake.

I think it's great that you decided to make that healthy choice! I'm about to make that turn as well. I just moved and they have a gym here so as soon as all the bad stuff is all eaten up here at my house then, I'm going to start my healthy streak. 115 is my goeal which means I only have about 7 or so lbs to loose which is not bad at all, wish me luck!

I wanna lose weight, too. And, I just got on a hot tea kick, literally, out of nowhere. Celestial Seasonings has a Lemon Zinger tea that is SOOOO good. I love it. How much do you drink a day, Pascal?

eating healthy is something I've been trying to do more this year, I'm not seeing big progress or anything yet, but I definitely feel better about myself too.
