As many others in the world, I decided for New Years that I would revamp my efforts to become less of a fatty (I've always done little things before that but now I actually have a plan and a calorie counter thingy and whatnot)
if you'd like some tips, i have them but you've probably heard it all before.
I have (my step-brother is a gym coach) but it's never a bad thing to get a reminder/let other people see it
In fact, you might be useful for this since he hasn't been. He never got into pop/soda and I'm trying to find something that is A. Not stupidly expensive and B. Caffeine (or has that kind of effect). I'm slowly dwindling my pop intake (2 a day now) but having a sub would be awfully nice for those tough days. Any recommendations?
hah, yeah I got into energy drinks for a while, basically from research after experiencing heart/kidney soreness that that was a terribly bad idea, the only thing I've found that does not impede my slightly healthier lifestyle is aspire, and if you 'have' to have that sugar boost then you might want to try Scheckters organic energy drink, which contains only plant derived sweeteners, and metabolic boosters.

now, i won't claim that either of these things is 'good' for you but they're certainly better than regular soda/pop which contain some really nasty stuff, the aspire has sweeteners, but it also comes with a bonus of -200 calories.
so play that off in your mind, and yes you read that correctly.. it makes your body burn fat.

if you want something inarguably 'good' for you, there really is no option but to buy or make fresh orange juice.
now, another product I find useful is this:

if you have energy problems this will put the pep back in you, you can mix it up into 500ml drinks bottles easily enough, but it does not mix smooth, there are bits, the others are silky smooth though.
again, I'm no biologist/chemist so I can't claim this is good for you only that it works.
