I used to love pepsi max till amate scared me... she dropped a dirty 2p into a glass of it and half an hour later it was sparkling like new. i just kept wondering what it was doing to my insides. I switched to water and to make sure i was drinking enough I filled up a 2ltr coke bottle with water and made sure i finished itby bedtime. I also read that we sometimes mistake thirst for hunger, so now every time i feel peckish i drink a glass of water and wait a few minutes. then if i'm still feeling peckish i'll eat something. Its REALLY helping with the weight loss.
