Sugar free energy drinks

So I’ve been on these for about a month and seem to be gaining weight the last few weeks. Same diet and stayed consistently around 202-204 and now I am 208. Also stopped taking dhea so not real sure. But I have read sugar free anything that gives your body the response of sugar causes cravings and thus eating more? This hold true for most?
 
Think it increases cravings as any sugar does for me. When I just stop with any sugar tasting drinks or foods I hopefully will drop back down. Reason I even took dhea was my blood said I was low moderate.
 
Sadly the forums are full of energy drinks adverts and more companies making them, Im addicted but this addiction has caused me to have a belly, I tried to figure how this happened and pretty sure result of energy drinks And no intense job
 
From what I have read, the only way calorie free drinks have an effect on weight is because when people drink them they think they are doing something healthy, therefore think they can eat more of other bad foods. They do not in and of themselves do ****.
 
Energy drinks make you fat cause it raises cortisol. They are terrible for your system and reek havoc on your gut... just like all stims. They leave you tired and fat and needing more to function. Want results and athletic performance? Cut out the stims. And limit coffee to two cups a day.

Agree and what about the other crap apart from caffeine they put in them..
 
No that is not why.

Excess calorie consumption that is past what your sedentary job and lack of training (if you even do) accounts for.

If only Americans replaced the 20 creamers and sugars they put in their coffee and drank 0 calorie energy drinks.....
Maybe... Just MAYBE American's would not be as "fat" or have "bellies"
🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

But what do we know?

A lot of truth to that .. Im on maybe 1 a week sometimes not even that

You know when your dad gives you that advice you don't want to hear but you know he's right.

I drink my coffee black and eat well. With absolutely nothing else changed except the removal of stims which were never accompanied by calories - my condition has hugely improved and in all other aspects of my life. I limit myself to have two strong cups of coffee per day.

Coffee makes me feel worse than bang or reign energy drinks.

Yeh because coffee is pure energy drink is full of artificial crap. Also after a while your tolerance will go up to them, say you start with small red bull can, now they have double sizes, same with monster

Yeah, I don’t like that they’re artificial but now I just drink one bang or reign pre workout only . I’ve noticed that’s all I really need. They’re sugar/calorie free btw. They contain aminos, coq10 and electrolytes which is cool
 
Mind you I drank coffee completely black

Gave me jitters yet lethargy
I crashed from coffee worse than bang or reign which provide literally hours of steady energy
Destroyed my stomach
Made me nauseated all day
Made me feel overall bad
