In response to "Can we talk about drinks and the amount of calories in them? I'm getting tired (already?!) of only water but holy cow...." by ty97

This topic is something Kim has preached to me. I shouldn't drink my calories.

Posted by David (aka David) Nov 6 '13, 10:18

The problem is that I rely on drinks for my flavor at lunch and dinner. A 12.9 ounce can of lemonade is 150 calories. So I have to waste 300 calories a day on flavor.

OR bring some lemon squeeze thing that you can flavor your water with. -- nm - Remlik Nov 6, 10:22
This is the dilemma I am in now. I switched exclusively to diet soda when I started losing weight. - ty97 Nov 6, 10:19 10
- I drink alot of Diet Pepsi, just had a colonoscopy and it was all clear...so game on! - Beaker Nov 6, 10:22 1
  - I think you might be drinking from the wrong end. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 6, 10:23
- some people like green tea, unsweetened. I can't do it. - groiny Nov 6, 10:21
- Yep, I started drinking caffeine-free diet coke again, but I've just quit. - Kim Pine Nov 6, 10:21 6
  - Does it still come in that weird gold bottle? I haven't seen that stuff in ages -- nm - con_carne Nov 6, 10:39
  - You started because you were stoned from surgery and I couldn't say no to you about your grocery list. It's 100% my fault. -- nm - David Nov 6, 10:24 4
    - asshole! -- nm - groiny Nov 6, 10:26 2
      - The worst part has been gently trying to get her to stop again. - David Nov 6, 10:29 1
        
        fuckin Jesse. nm -- nm - groiny Nov 6, 10:35
    - aw...:) -- nm - Diva Nov 6, 10:25
you have to change that, truly. - groiny Nov 6, 10:19 15
- I have a secondary issue with dieting. - David Nov 6, 10:23 14
  - aah, I have a major issue with dieting as well, I am very picky. - groiny Nov 6, 10:25 13
    - Heh, I just had Subway for lunch. I get the most basic sandich possible, which is ham and cheese with olive oil. - David Nov 6, 10:28 12
      - I feel bad for you. Food is probably one of the greatest joys in my life - decline Nov 6, 10:34 3
        
        Yes. And it's also a valuable reminder to never listen to David's opinion on food. -- nm - Roger More Nov 6, 10:41
        
        this -- nm - Diva Nov 6, 10:39
        
        Yeah, it's strange that I enjoy Top Chef and Iron Chef because I would never eat anything they serve. -- nm - David Nov 6, 10:37
      - I get the veggie delite, but the onions were so strong, and the bread was not fresh either. - groiny Nov 6, 10:33
      - I dunno ... sometimes onioins are horribly strong - both smell and flavor - even red onions can be like that ... -- nm - JenBro Nov 6, 10:31 6
        
        Right, and that's my point. Simply putting one on my food for a second can ruin the flavor for me. - David Nov 6, 10:33 3
        
        I don't mind onion flavor - I just don't want it to dominate ... sometimes I use scallions or shallots instead of onion - I think it's the Winter - JenBro Nov 6, 10:36 2
        
        man, I friggin *heart* shallots. -- nm - Diva Nov 6, 10:51
        
        Onion is probably my least favorite flavor. If I eat one, I may start to gag. -- nm - David Nov 6, 10:37
        
        agreed - i love onions, but i may have put too many red ones in a salad I just made. - Diva Nov 6, 10:33 1
        
        :) -- nm - JenBro Nov 6, 10:36
