May 24, 200520 yr So, basically caffeine is a stimulant and since kids weigh less than adults, it really gets them going. Not to mention pop contains sugar too. Wow, they pay people for this research huh?

May 24, 200520 yr I want the constitution to guarantee the right to Diet Coke.... .... from my cold dead fingers...
May 25, 200520 yr QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ May 24, 2005 -> 10:31 AM) I haven't had a pop in like 4 years. How do you live? Let's not go into my pop drinking habits.
May 25, 200520 yr I used to be a hard core coca-cola drinker. It was hurting my complexion and by sophomore year it was starting to catch up to me in my waist too (naturally I am a thin person...but was starting to baloon). That still didn't stop me, finally around 180 I said enough. I switched to diet coke, water, and milk. That was in october...fast foreward to march I weigh 143, and have actually had to put on a few pounds so I don't wither away. Cut the soda (as well as candy bars) and its amazing what the metabolism can do. Edited May 25, 200520 yr by 1549
May 25, 200520 yr I've always drank a lot of caffeine and never have been the troublesome kid. I probably drink a can or 2 of soda. The key to not gaining weight (at least at my age with great metabolism lol) is not eating too much. I don't eat to eat often. With some people it's like a nervous habit, that's sick. And I'm waiting for someone to sue the Food Channel for making them fat. All that channel does is show incredlibly good looking junk food. I always yell at my parents for watching it because it sickens me.
