Addicted!!!!!

i just started to drink apple juice, i havent had it ever since i was like 5 and man is it good

Apple juice?

i hear that is really bad on your teeth.

yeah, i was looking for some today but we ran out!!!!!!!!!!!
so i had some oj, im addicted to juice i can say
but i dont have yellow teeth :)

I was just thinking about this thread last night and I noticed that drinking that much liquid is not a good sign, even if it is water.

That pictre yo posted was about 40 cans of soda which is about 60 cups of liquid. 14 liters.

I did a little calculation online, and a person of your weight and range of activity should drink closer to 4 liters of water a day.

If you are craving liquid that much, I would see a doctor. Signs of diabetes can include being very thirsty and using the bathroom more than you need to.

I have a bad feeling Kaorte is right. It doesn't sound like your on your way to diabetes, it sounds like you already have diabetes.

It could save your life to drink water ONLY. Just cut turkey it, starting right now. Theres no reason to be drinking that much liquid at all, and your clearly aware of the negative effects it's having on you.

When you start drinking water every day, you will feel the difference in health, mood, and fatigue.

ANYTHING with a ton of sugar (fructose, lactose or sucrose) and couple that for a sugary acidic drink, they are all bad for your teeth.

Man this is bad... I am glad you are realizing this and taking action... I have a hard time drinking water and my body really needs it so I use Crystal light to help me once in a while. You could try that too to get you into liking water more. I know it has helped me a tonne.

Go get a blood sugar and blood pressure test ASAP because this is definitely very unhealthy and I fear you may already have diabetes.... :(

Good luck.. Please keep us posted.

Well my mother was diagnosed with diabetes two years ago. I havent been tested but I have really cut back I only had three cans yesterday and drank alot of water and today im going to try for just water

Sorry to hear about your mom :( Congrats on yesterday and good luck today :gj:

Definitely lay off the soda. I drank a ton of soda when I was younger (working in pizzerias for 10-12 hours a day). I probably drank 6-8 cans a day. Soda is like battery acid on your insides. I have had stomach problems all the way through since. I LOVE the taste of regular soda and have just had to give it up mostly because for me it absolutely causes weight gain (and big dentist bills). I drink a diet soda or 2 every couple of days and ever couple of weeks I'll have a regular soda. Coke Zero is great. Also, Diet Dr Pepper, Diet Mountain Dew, Diet Sunkist, Diet A&W and of course Diet Sprite! When we moved into our new place I got a Poland Spring cooler. I drink more water than ever and feel better for it. Good luck getting that caffeinated, sugary monkey off your back!
