How often you drink soda in a day?

I take spurts of time where I count calories. I get all bogged down in it though. I know sodas have tons of empty calories so I dont' drink them very often. I try to stay away from some of the more high calorie foods that don't provide lots of nutrional value into my diet.

Wow, it's amazing how many calories we actually do consume on a daily basis. I used to actually sit down and count the calories and compute my daily food intake, but personally I just don't do it anymore, even though you should, the most I do is when I am grocery shopping I do study the nutritional information, to see which is healthier in order to make a wiser choice. The last time I did it for the fun of it, we were sitting down in Denny's with the kids and my husband was playing with his new phone so he started calculating all the calories we were about to start consuming and I got so disappointed , it's incredible the amount of calories some nachos and half a burger can have.

Soda is really bad to drink. It has no nutritional value at all. I read that a can of soda has 16 teaspoons of sugar in it. Still I do like to drink it once in a while, just not every day. You're better off drinking water instead.

I went through a time when I was younger and drank too many cokes and ended up in the hospital!! I do drink cokes still but not near as many as I used too, and a few years ago when I went to the doctor I was told that if I wanted a coke try and only have one per day if you just have to have one and limit 2 cokes a day but sometimes I get so tired of them!! I really like sweet tea but I know that is not much different than drinking cokes, And I do like water but I like my water with ice and lemon or lime in it!Have a good day!!

I don't drink soda every day. I do drink it quite often though. I don't think it is good to drink too much soda. Your body has a way of letting you know when enough is enough.

I don't mind thinking about calories and pounds etc. that is related about weight gain or loss. Maybe because I'm really blessed to have a great metabolism. Thanks to that. Whatever I eat, I drink or do, my size remain constant, even my weight. It only plays from 50-52 kgs. Speaking of soda, its very frequent that I drink soda. And it is really a good thing, aside from I avoid too much sugar in my body, too much carbon and calories, it really helps me to be dependent only to water. Just like junkfoods, soda are just tongue teaser. Adds flavor to our daily meal. But, still if I were to choose between soda or water after meal, I choose water.

i rarely drink soda anymore.maybe once or twice a week,if that. i'm usually so busy during the day i burn that right off.it's eating pure junk like twinkies that get a lot of people in trouble.

I don't count my calories but I see the value in being aware of them. There was a time when I was able to shun soda from my daily diet but lately i've been drinking a lot again. Thanks for reminding me to stay away again.

When I was younger I used to drink way too much soda. Now that I am older, I tend to drink a lot more tea and water than I do soda, but I am still drinking soda on a daily basis (I think because I am addicted). I only drink about two cans of soda a day now compared to when I was younger and used to drink six or more cans of soda a day. I haven't been on a scale, however to see what kind of difference my change in consumption has made on the scale.

I don't really count my calories as I have done it in the past and I just felt miserable with what they said I should consume. I did however drink way too much soda during the day and I had to cut it out completely. I didn't cut it out so much for the weight thing though as I did for my health. I found that it had actually been giving me severe headaches and extreme dizzy spells so I just cut it out of my diet and I feel a lot better. The weird thing is I am not diabetic in any way I just can't really drink a lot of soda, sugar is fine just not soda, strange huh?? Any how I hate doing the whole calorie counting thing so I just try to eat small portions and healthy, seems to be working for me so I think I will stick to it.

I drink like one or two sodas per day I just can't stay away from them because they are so good a meal always taste better with soda. Never a good idea to drink a lot of soda though because it's not good for ones health at all very bad it's better to drink water instead because when you drink water it always washes out the fluids of your body oh wait it washes out something anyway it's better to drink water than soda. I guess I should start tommarrow, but what I don't like about drinking water is that I have to go to the bathroom more and that's no fun at all. For me soda doesn't make me gain weight because i have a very high metabolism so for me it doesn't affect me in the weight category and I am glad that it doesn't also food it never has made me gain any weight at all in fact I have lost weight which is not so good for me because I feel to skinny now I only weigh 98 pounds I need to gain some weight I use to weigh 110 pounds don't know what happened there anyway soda is delicious, but no good to drink a lot of it.

No i don't take soda any more, doctors advised to go for tea with more milk, so I take several cups of tea from morning till i go to bed, it is made from pure milk, in which tea leafs are boiled, strained and 'sugar-free' is added, i am diabetic lol..i always take tea hot only.. Thanks for sharing Cheers. God bless you, have a nice day ahead. Professor ‘Bhuwan’. .

At work I'm used to drink it. My office has taken the decision to buy the drinks for all the employees for the lunch, and everyday we has to choose between a variety of sodas and juices and of course water. I take the soda often, and I'm happy with it. I'm not worried about the calories, it's pointless to become paranoid counting, but some moderation on how much you take is needed. I drink it for lunches and maybe some days at home for dinner. Normally in the meantime, I take water.

i am a big cola drinker, but i drink diet. that does not make it better, it just means that I am not getting as many calories from it, but i tend to snack when I am drinking soda, adding calories I would not normally eat.

i don't really like to drink soda as my stomach will rebel to it if i do... so i rarely drink soda... water is my favourite... that's what i love to drink the most... everytime i go out to eat, i always have to ask for water even though i had drink something else like tea or juice... but water is still a must for me... take care and have a nice day...

I know this sounds horrible but we are very addicted to our Pepsi's. We go through a ton of Pepsi. In one month we collected a full garbage bag of CRUSHED cans. There is only the two of us drinking and the occasional guest who has a can. We both have decided this new years that we should drink less, purchase less, and defiantly recycle EVERY can that we do. When we filled that garbage bag we were both sick to our stomachs thinking how could we drink so much of it. But then we grabbed another can and watched TV. lol

Once upon a time last year, I kept track of my calories on a website...I quit going there because of the immature posts. I haven't been tracking my calories like I should and have gained some weight back! I drink diet soda, but should give it up again...except I don't want to right now. I also should be drinking more water, which is something that I really should be doing and I want to do. I have to get back up to 100 ounces a day. My body really needs that water, and if I drink more water, I drink less diet soda.
