My Biggest Downfall: Soda

My favorite soda is Mountain Dew.

I will admit that it's not the best tasting soda out there but for some reason I am addicted to it!

Have you ever read the nutrition facts for a Mountain Dew? It's not a pretty picture.



31 grams on sugar? Wow. It's not easy to drink only one of these sodas either. An 8 fl oz serving size seems like nothing when you are sitting there with a bottle in front of you or at a restaurant with unlimited refills.

If I took Mountain Dew out of my diet I could save a few hundred calories and about 100g of sugar. That could definitely help my weight loss.

Cutting out sugary sodas will be one of my first steps on this weight loss journey. I have cut out soda before and did not drink it for a few months so I know I can do it again.
