Any other soda freaks out there?

@dcdogz I’m busting your balls mostly, I know it’s hard with kids I had them too.
barely remembered to come back to this was driving.
kids pain in the ass, but have to find clever ways to manage their weight AND get their protein in.
works out, id rather them have keto crap with 20 - 30 grams of protein and fiber and them have full bellies then go crazy on chips on stuff.
i manage their macros pretty religiously due to wrestling, but have to have a balance with whole foods (being picky) and some processed options.

generally when I pack their lunches, I will go full on protein snack. thermos with ground beef, hotdogs, or pb sandwich with keto bread stuff like that, then load up
quest chips, protein bars, wilde chips, atkins chocolates, jerky, quest peanut butter cups. Shit they can eat and not quite feel left out at school.
then at home I let them eat dinner with more or less whatever protein/carb combo that floats their boat.

has been working out currently for the most part.

lately my son been loving this View: https://www.instagram.com/p/DMJeI0CAmcO/

i used a keto bun and he devours em.

My daughter been loving keto bread grilled cheese, with an egg on top and fat free mozarella.
Cook with Randa on Instagram: "The best sandwich hack EVER!! Get your bread, add cheese, another bread slice then egg on top. Season with black pepper and chilli salt. Add mozzarella on top.

Why are you feeding your kids a keto diet?

its not a keto diet, just more keto ish items so they can maintain weight during weigh in weeks. otherwise they eat normal foods.
 
Yeah, kids are a metabolic furnace, they can eat whatever they want.

The little bastards 😆

yea just wrestling week we have to have a balance where i can keep an eye on their weight otherwise they bloat up. with the ketoish stuff it keeps them in a zone where they are comfortable and eating and dont have to stress.

if they miss weight auto DQ so not much we can do about it.

kids are terrified of missing weight so not a huge deal, they eat and get on the scale immediately lmao
 
I tried olipop before I stopped drinking regular sugar sodas and I hated it, it was barely sweet and tasted like shit. Now I drink sugarfree stuff and don't care about what kind of substitute it is, maybe I should give it another try.
That shit is garbage

Monsters fuck me up. I get the shakes after drinking those things lolight headed and shit. Those things don’t sit well with me. I use to like the bangs or ghost stuff
 
I spam the shit out of Diet Mountain Dew and knockoff Kroger Big Dr K or whatever it is. Diet 7up is also really good.

It's like 99% water, so good to go
 
As a kid I think I lived on Soda. Did a number on my teeth a bit (fillings) that have broken or fallen out 40 yrs later.
(Going to be needing some work soon, 4 broken teeth ATM).

Used to get this stuff called "The Pop Shoppe" (in the 70's). Cases of different flavored soda's all the time.
Nowadays, I just buy a pack of the small 8-oz Coke Zero, Dr. Pepper Zero or Pepsi Zero. I have one a day w/ my lunch.
A bunch of that diet stuff isnt great for you either, I'm sure a little cant hurt though.. ** shrug **

I wish they still had soda in the glass bottles. There hard to find anymore. Only places I ever see them is in the Spanish stores .

The only Coke I’ll drink is a Mexican Coke, it’s made with cane sugar not HFC. Those come in returnable glass bottles. When I get one at the taco shop everyone sets their empties in a plastic crate on the floor near the trash.
I’m telling you if you’ve never had a Mexican Coke you’re missing out. They blow the US stuff away.
 
I love using the zero sugar sodas. There nice treats and curve my appetite a bit when I’m craving other junk food. I found this one in the store the other day and just cracked it open. It’s pretty bomb. Holliday creamy vanilla.View attachment 215014
I just tried this too! Good stuff! A&W Rootbeer Zero is good stuff also!
 
Bro I kill a -2 pack of Cherry Dr. Pepper every two days!!! Horrible I know but Fuck it!!!

Yup, you would drop off the empties and just pick up a new case, choosing the flavors you wanted.
Was great...
 
I hate to do this but here goes.

You need to address all your addictions.

Drinking alcohol? I loved it so much I got cirrhosis. Sugar? I loved it so much I’ve got stage 3 kidney disease. I don’t drink fake beer or wine because it keeps me from the real stuff, it actually makes me want the booze more. I liken it to nicotine gum, it’s a crutch just like aspartame or sucralose. If you use that crutch to quit great, if you use the crutch as a replacement you’re still addicted. Where’s my AA people? Do they offer a booze substitute in those meetings?

But I digress. Addiction is powerful and I don’t want anyone with them to think I’m anything but sympathetic. I have them too but when you’re facing life or death (at least for me) the choice is easy.

I will have a N/A beer on occasion, it doesn't do that to me (make me want to drink booze) and some of the new ones are decent.
(Guinness, Corona). But I will only get one with my food like a Corona when we go for Mexican, etc..

I escaped 40 years of heavy boozing with the good liver still, lucked out...
 
When I was a kid this was a soda vending machine. You dropped in a quarter and pulled the bottle out. Unless you were poor kids like us, we’d heist moms church key (bottle opener for you millennials) and we’d pop the top off in the machine and catch about 2/3 of it in a cup and run.

*Going to take a lil Googling by some to get this story 😉

from google
Mountain Dew was originally invented in the 1940s by Tennessee brothers Barney and Ally Hartman specifically as a whiskey mixer. They developed the citrus-flavored soda to pair with bourbon after being unable to find their preferred mixer. In fact, the name itself is 19th-century slang for moonshine
