[quote=Anonymous]I am .2 into the “overweight” category of the BMI scale at 25.1, and 24.9 is “normal weight”. I would ideally like to lose 20 more lb. I’m down 10 already, though I realize most is probably water weight. I’ve been exercising regularly, including brisk walking or biking, when the weather allows, plus weight lifting 3-4 days a week. I am doing really well with my diet, trying to incorporate lots of protein and limited carbs, staying within a macro count, and I’ve also been better about drinking water.

I allow myself one of those 100 calorie cans of Coke a day, fitting within my calorie deficit (I DO NOT add back the calories I spend exercising,) and it’s been helping my cravings. I also will add a splash of juice (orange, cranberry) to my water, never more than an 8oz serving a day, which also fits into my calorie deficit.

I have a friend who keeps telling me this is a horrible idea because of the sugar and will derail my progress. But if it makes me drink water and helps stop cravings for junk, isn’t that helping already? [/quote]
