As it seems gum can actually cause you to snack less after lunch and minimize cavaties see below:

I also think that drinking diet coke as a zero calorie drink is bad bc it isn't water but it is better than drinking a high calorie drink. I even drink diet coke instead of regular when I order mixed drinks (i.e. diet coke and rum). I figure that ever less calorie helps me to get to my goal.
What do you guys think?

I love sugarless gum, I heard that when you ordermixwed drinks you should go with cranberry as the mixer.
ReplyDeleteGeat idea! I'll try that next time.
ReplyDeletei love chewing sugarless gum, i have been trying to stay away from coke zero because i won't drink enough water if i do. but i will get it before i drink a sugary high calorie drink if i just have a craving.
ReplyDeleteI love Sugar-free Bubble Yum bubble gum.
ReplyDeleteThere's just sometimes that I'm not hungry, but I find myself looking through the kitchen for "something". The gum somehow helps...and if I'm at home, I like to blow bubbles!
I had to give up all carbonated drinks recently, after developing a kidney stone. I was a HUGE Diet Dr. Pepper fan. Now it's just water, water, water. I miss the soda a bit, but I never want the pain of a kidney stone EVER again!
Just be careful of the caffeine. Maybe over time you can switch to something like decaf green tea (healthy stuff) but if a diet soda helps you get through, that is certainly better than a regular Coke!
ReplyDeleteKeep on, you are doing great.
I have never been a soda person ever since a mechanic suggested that I pour Coke on my car battery to eat away at this corroded crap b/c my car would not start. I poured the Coke on my battery, it ate the green crap, and then BAM my car started. So I thought to myself, if the coke can eat through that crap wth is it doing to my body?
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, today I chewed the hell out of some gum but it didn't help b/c I ate up some stuff today.
Thanks for stopping by Me So Hongry and following!
I lost a lot of weight a few years ago (around 50 lbs), and I drank diet Coke all the time. It sure isn't healthy, but it kept me from being hungry all the time, and helped with the digestion. Now I try to limit it to two glasses/day though, too many chemicals.
