Man I almost bought a shirt that says “I love aspartame” just because of this very reason, people hate on it all the time in reality 99.99% of people would notice absolutely no difference, if not, benefit from an aspartame sweetened beverage vs their fully sugar beverage (less cals)
Agreed all around...a few sodas is no big deal, but for real...I find the orange Zevia actually enjoyable, but diet coke is delicious too lol
I was drinking the La Croix until I was introduced to zero sugar sodas and they’re an absolute game changer in terms of flavor!! Lol
Lol it's all good.
So is Zevia a brand of carbonated drink I have never heard of? I may have to give it a shot to see if I like it based on your recommendation.
I have tried the cream soda Zevia, it was good just not AS good as zero sugar cream soda in other forms.
Yeah, just a brand that uses stevia and I got into it when I was full on keto trying to keep blood glucose and insulin as low as possible. Target has it. My wife likes them all, but I really only like the grape and orange because you can definitely taste the stevia in the rest.
No, it is a great and informative post! I agree, I also wonder if some of the original studies were paid for by oh let's say sugar companies or the like? I mean if I were "big sugar" I wouldn't have a problem having someone design a study in a way that leads people to believe negatives about the thing that is driving use of my product down. That is another part of what a lot of people don't realize. A study can be designed to point in the direction you want it to by adjusting parameters, and when the people getting the grants for this stuff from them give them what they want from a study they get more business. So a lot of the time finding something peer reviewed is a way to make sure it is a little more legit.
LMAO!!! I have been watching too much of Broderick Chavez and Mike Wyck videos lately. That hard nosed sarcastic speech style must have just carried over. I tend to talk a bit more rough than I type. LOL This was more my sarcastic talking side sneaking out.
Oh okay they are energy drinks. I will have to try some.
The zero sugar root beer and cream sodas are by far my favorite. Zero sugar Dr. Pepper/Cream Soda is right there with them and is the staple right now.Diet A&W Rootbeer is the top dog.
Mountain Dew Zero can be good depending on my disposition.
McDonald’s Diet Coke is a sweeter formulation when on the road I enjoy sometimes.
Zevia Grape and Cream are much more toned down options I also like that don’t have nearly the impact on my stomach acid as the sucralose, erythritol & aspartame seem to.
None of this matters to me right now; I drink a 52oz Whole Fairlife Milk daily atm, as well as about 24oz OJ just to keep my weight up, but come next week I get to stop being so fat
It's probably the aspartame sticking to your organs
I don’t doubt it honestly! Lol I NEVER drank soda, now I’m addicted to these zero sugars. I’m gonna have to cut back just because I hate buying those 12 packs twice a week lol it’s embarrassingIt's probably the aspartame sticking to your organs
Iol
Just trust the process bud, it is only water. If coming from the peptides it will drop right off. Be careful with that aspartame too. I heard every time you carry around a water jug it makes you hold water.
I was going to say the same thing. Fiber pulls water into the intestines making you bloat until the poo is goo and comes out of you.
I’m taking 200mg/week, I need to try dropping it to be honest, that keeps me in the 1100-1200s with good blood work. I’ve got a blood work appointment Friday, so we will see how things look then. I was dropping down to 160/week but they come in 1ml vials and having to pull from 2 separate vials every other pin or so was annoying me so I went back to .5 ml/week a while back
I was probably 18-19 when I first recognized what was happening. My mom has very bad anxiety, PTSD, depression, etc. I have real bad OCD and now bad anxiety. I can handle the day to day generalized anxiety but the panic attacks are brutal and make me feel like I’m going crazy when they’re happening. They are a lot better and I’ve gotten to the point where I can distract myself from them but if I don’t have the energy or ability to distract myself, then they are bad.
My post wasn't about cancer tho lol
I wold say hereditary + the environment of growing up in an "anxious" househould (therapy taught me that lol)
The sleep situation is what I often find myself in. Can't sleep > get anxious about not being able to sleep > panic attack > definitely no sleep.
Anti-Obesity Drug 9604. It is nearly the same thing as HGH Frag 176-191, just slightly different. Supposed to be all the fat loss benefits of GH with none of the sides. Supposedly. But Frag would be the closest relative.
It is a good point - the weights not magically appearing from calories because things have stayed consistent, it is a tough mental battle to see such good progress and then here at the end things go haywire lol
The bolded is how my anxiety tends to present, and holding it back is what would make it worse. I am lucky tho and don't often suffer from anxiety. I am too ADHD to focus on any one thing long enough to give myself anxiety about it. I had a bout for a while that was just presenting as rage and i had to get myself into therapy for a while. Work through why I was anxious and luckily for me it went away.
I just looked it up and the first site I found explains the issue.
I definitely got the initial redness/swelling at the actual injection sites. This feels most like a GI related bloat but I just can’t think of anything that’s changed. I’m sitting here hungry, stomach growling fasted for 16 hours yet I look and feel like I ate a solid meal 2 hours ago.
Pretty crazy. The wording of that article was weird because it separated the swelling and the pain at the site comment so it seemed it my be systemic swelling to me when I read it.
Yeah, I mean if you don't have anymore and aren't enjoying the ride plus being pretty happy with how lean you are it probably isn't worth it. I would take some shirt off progress pics the last day you take it and then wait a few days and see if there is a drop in water and take pics of the results then it will tell you if it was really worthwhile to you or not.
Absolutely! I have 13 days of AOD left at the minimum dosage (300mcg in the morning) if I get the chance I may double dose it some days depending on food schedule, then there is 25 days left until November 1 which gives plenty of time for any water weight to drop if that’s what is causing it.
