diet pepsi max ingredients
Weight loss and products you use.?

I have two questions about weight loss. I dont want to loose much, Just 20 pounds. Im 5 7 and weigh 135. I was at 142 and have been on a diet for a week now and lost 7 pounds but the last 2 days I have gained a pound and have done nothing different from the diet ive been doing accept adding a crystal lite packet to my water maybe twice a day. I have heard that even though diet sodas and diet drinks have no calories or fat that theres an ingredient that could still possibly halt any weight loss. Is this true? Should I stay away from diet drinks and diet sodas? Ive also had a few of those new diet pepsi max drinks. One every other day or so. Am I doing the wrong thing by drinking these diet drinks? And also one other thing is, can birth control really make you not loose weight? I just got on the nuva ring a month ago. Could this be why i cant loose weight either even though im on a good diet? And if so is there any birth control that doesnt make you gain weight?

ok a few things.

1. when trying to lose weight, only weigh once per week at the same time of day, on the same day each week. Your weight will fluctuate throughout the week for various reasons and you will only get discouraged by this.

2. Water is still better than diet drinks like sodas and Crystal Light. It helps make your body more efficient. Your liver assists the kidneys when they have too much work in filtering the crap out of food and drink such that it can use it. If the liver is too busy doing that… it becomes less efficient at it’s first job, which is metabolizing/burning fat. If you drink more water, the kidneys will keep up on their own… letting the liver do what it does best.

3. Birth control can make you gain weight… but it’s not the BC itself… the pill is telling your body that it’s pregnant so it won’t continue to ovulate. Your body releases hormones when it’s pregnant and they make us emotional which make us eat.. and they also make us hungry, and the slow our metabolism to prepare for gaining fat necessary in pregnancy. Over time it will stop. I don’t think there is any BC that doesn’t do all that. I think that the Nuva Ring is the best when it comes to that though, it’s very low dose.
