I live by this. Seriously. First order of business last month was to cut out soda. I know, it’s delicious and on most college campuses it’s everywhere. It is offered with pretty much any meal at any dining location on campus. But soda has absolutely zero nutritional effects. Of course, I’m sure you already knew that. It’s addicting though, so drinking seltzer water for the first couple of days to get over it isn't a terrible idea.
What about the caffeine?! I know caffeine is vital to
college life as it definitely still is to mine. The only thing I drink besides
water is coffee or tea. And that doesn't mean coffee hyped up on sugar. Tea
with some honey does have some nutritional value and coffee with a little bit of nonfat creamer isn't half bad.
While juice does have some nutritional effects, some juices
have more sugar in them than coffee. So, I try to steer clear of them too. Occasionally I’ll have a glass of juice but
it’s definitely not a habit.
So I have water as a way of cutting out some unnecessary
calories. I know water isn't everyone’s thing, but putting a lemon in water
does make it extra tasty and it does help to think of the weight that it will help you lose.
It just makes sense, cutting out unnecessary calories in what you drink alone
will put you on the right track to a healthier lifestyle!
