Occasional Soda/Pop ok?

Just wondering if an occasional soda/pop is ok? I don't know if i can break the habit so im throwing it out there. I have been doing good so far, but i want to know the real truth. Is it ok? If so how often. Tell me your thoughts.

I just had one tonite for the first time in probally 3-4 months...and I didnt even drank the whole can....But I usally drink the Coke Zero products, zero calories and zero surgars.....But sodas are alright occasionally, it depends on your goals......If you want to be ripped to the core, I would only have one on special ocassions like your BirthDay and Christmas and possibly Thanksgiving

Then again to be honest when I was 17-20 I drank probally a 6 pack of sodas a day, and was pretty ripped up with a good bit of muscle mass.....but I couldnt do that now

i would limit it too one can of diet pop with no calories and sugar.
I personally take a sip of diet pop once a week, but only a sip

I've gotten to the point where if I drink soda, it feels like I'm drinking syrup.  I only drink water and on occasion I will have a sweet tea.

Thanks guys. I guess my question should be right now would it hurt me that much to drink one or so every other day? I have been really good lately. I used to drink 5-6 a day and now its dropped to 1 every other day or two. And i have totally stopped drinking beer. Feels good.

dude good job stoppin the soda... but homeboy you need to lemme know how to quit the BEAAAZZZZ(beers).. I live in a ****ty lil town where thats all that we doo.. drinkin everynight...drinkin games... everything surround with drinkin.. and i lift but i cant kick my beer habit

never drink sodas as soon as it gets into your system it destroys everybit of muscle in your body and puts on 100lbs of fat and youll be a fatty fatty boomalaty and need lipo.

I live in a small town to, and thats all there is to do here to. Kind of ****ty when ya think about it, but it helped alot that my friends slowed down. But next time you go out with your buddies take some water and drink it instead. When they wake up hung over as ****, just be thankful you didnt drink last night. That alone has been enough motivation for me. Plus after i stopped i lost a little bit of weight, felt better, and my abs are gettin more cut than ever.

Gese...  I honestly don't think I even saw a full beer until I was 18 and in college...  I also didn't turn 16 till my 10th grade year, so I guess that kinda helped keep me outta trouble.  Your guy's parents not keep an eye on ya?
 
I drink soda when I'm ok with my size.  I can stay lean and drink it, but it seems like when I get bad into drinking it a lot, I can't grow.  So when bulking, it's a no-no for me.  I have a high metabolism, so what works for me may not for you. 

I have a pretty high metabolism as well. Well the parents do, but they don't mind much. I think im going to try to stay away from it, but what about powerade/gatorade? Im pretty sure they're fine but im making sure. Thanks guys

Im also from small town that is notorious for dranking and druggin........Theirs no stores, no nothing...their is absolutly nothing to do but drank or fish on the weekends.....I love to drank, but I had to move out of town to stop....and I only moved out of town because I got arrested and was getting in and out of trouble...and was sick and tierd of paying lawyers and the police.........I absolutely know where yall are coming from.....besides I didnt want to be the guy that is 40 that is still partying everyday, and hasnt accomplished nothing in his life, and is broke as a joke..........

That's all most of the ppl do around here.  Drink, get high, and hang out in the junior high parking lot teaming up on random passers-by sending them away nice and bloody.  Meeting up before parties in parking lots, shooting mortars and sh** at cars knowing that no one can do anything cuz they have 40 friends with chains and baseball bats to protect em...thinkin they're badass cuz they're 17, and it only took 3 kicks to face from their friend to help them take out a 20 year old...  Not a fan of the way some of the rednecks do ppl in my town.  I hang out with my girlfriend, play video games, and ride bmx in my free time.  Only thing open past 6 here is the bowling alley, and that gets old fast.

^ I have a question for ya toolman. I noticed in your sig. your taking Muscle Milk and Milk Thistle. Can i ask what you think of Muscle Milk? Has it helped? Tell me what you think about it. Also i have never understood why people take Milk Thistle. What does it do? Thanks man, im looking to add on to Leukic so im trying to do some research.
