Foodstanders knocked it out of the park this year! Each and every one of you worked incredibly hard at developing good eating habits, one day and one choice at a time. On top of that, we all did it...

Soda Substitute: What's a good substitute for soda? What drinks?

Lotta I drink water and sometimes put fruit and berries in it :) Sparkling water seems to be a popular alternative, but I personally hate the taste :D
-
DietID_TeamDietitians @RegannePreece - I totally agree with @Lotta. Putting frozen fruit in water or sparkling water is a great way to add flavor without added sugar. I also like hot cinnamon tea. The cinnamon has...

LezEngel @Rachna this time of year is a killer when it comes to sugar & veggie consumption. I think I'm in harm reduction mode at this point!
Water weight
I wonder if stuffing my self with water will make me gain weight through water weight ???
-
annefood Hey @NellyAymon . First, I wouldn't recommend stuffing yourself with water—it is possible to become overly hydrated such that the sodium levels in your blood drop too low. However, to do that you'd...

Bunny I don't trust industry funded studies. The sugar industry will always say sugar is safe/good for humans, because that is how they make money!
