Geek’s Test is Best Recomp

[anabolic_geek]

I don’t have to track anything that doesn’t contribute to my macros.

 

[Bigmurph6]

There’s carbs in soda though? Right

 

[anabolic_geek]

Not in diet soda.

 

[Poppy]

Nope. Most diet sodas are zero everything across the board.

 

[John]

I just assumed most of us dont drink soda with breakfast,or dont drink it period,but everyone’s diet is different I guess.

 

[anabolic_geek]

The other nice things about sodas is the carbonation helps you feel fuller. On top of that, caffeine acts as an appetite suppressant

 

[Poppy]

I call it chemical flavored water.

My diet Dr Pepper is my once a day or so treat.

 

[Poppy]

I’m with ya brother. Exactly why i enjoy one every so often.

 

[anabolic_geek]

Helps me wake up too

 

[Poppy]

I get mine mid afternoon when the munchies ate setting in

 

[John]

I understand @anabolic_geek,I on the other hand want to feel full from food,not from liquid.

 

[Bigmurph6]

I had no idea that diet soda had no carbs

 

[John]

Caffeine dont work for me like that,i can drink 3 cups a coffee and a energy drink and go to bed

 

[John]

And now that I hear @Poppy saying he drinks one a day,then they must be healthy…

 

[anabolic_geek]

 

[Poppy]

Hahaha I’m thinking theres a limit on how many you’re supposed to drink a day due to the chemical sweeteners.

One a day is about all i can do… keeps me out of the cookie jar.

 

[anabolic_geek]

To be terribly honest the sodas aren’t my best habit. I’m aware some people have issues with the artificial sweeteners but I’ve never had any bad reactions to them. I usually have one with breakfast to get going and then several early evening while I get my Overwatch games done for the day

 

[John]

@anabolic_geek I dont want you to think I’m picking at your log, I was just quite surprised to see a soda in the mix,there’s plenty of things one could pick apart with my diet…

 

[John]

Dont drink soda much,pretty much if I eat pizza I have coke or pepsi,HAVE TO.
No soda=no pizza

I was surprised when I reported in to work down south and was immersed in the culture.

That was a big difference. In Michigan (when i grew up) soda pops were only drank in the late afternoon… lunch at the very earliest. Down south… these dudes drink them 24/7.
