Coke or Pepsi? - Page 6

Gwillaker · #76 06-23-2004, 06:27 PM

I dont drink either any more. I drank a lot of Pepsi when I was 11 or 12. Probably too much, and I dont think it did me any good to be honest...

If I had to pick though...

Coke I guess.

I'm on LA Weight Loss...great diet, even tho I've hit a plateau. Only 30 more to go! I do drink a lot of water, after my morning MD. Like Hayley said, though, it makes you pee a LOT. I envy her, though, going only every 30 minutes! For me it can be every 10! And some days when the stress incontinence kicks in, I'm like that commerical, "gotta go, gotta go, gotta go right now!" Getting old sucks!

The worst is when you're trying to sleep & you have to go. Buddy Hackett used to do a bit about this happening as you age, that you force yourself out of bed & by the time you get to the pot, your wee-wee changed its mind, so you stand there talking to it: "Listen, you're the one that wanted to get up."

Since I have started to drink water more so than soda I have dropped over 10 lbs. and my energy has stated to return (Even though I am currently ill I feel better than I did a year ago..."Isn't that weird?")

That's scary, I hadn't heard of a connection between soda & cancer.

Those are some odd proportions. Are you sure you're measuring your thing correctly?

If I really had to choose, I would go for a diet coke OR a diet pepsi...they both taste the same to me. But I really dont like soda, I would much rather drink a mineral water.

I don't have that problem! All I have to do is hear running water and I have to go. Every time I brush my teeth or do dishes, I'm running to the potty!

Yep. Been there. The Dr. Pepper they sell in the little restaurant there is to die for! They mix the syrup and the carbonated water (like it's brain surgery or something

) right before your eyes so it's fresh and not bottled. It's delicious!

Must be a pretty big bathroom if you have space to run from the sink to the potty.
