I cut back over the years. It got to the point drinking one beer would hurt, so that was when I gave it up. But a glass of tea would cause me so much pain I would turn green and get sick to my stomach. As long as I stick to coffee and water, I'm fine. For the most part, I don't drink anything else.

as long as you dont fuck things up with sugar you are cool with the coffee and water is obvious. I drink only water, herb teas, black teas, coffee, all no sugar....and fresh fruit juices....only alcohol I drink anymore is red wine. will drink a beer if theres a nice beer to choose, but other than that certainly won't go pound a 12 pack of michelob and not even catch a buzz. that shit damages long term

Good on ya. I quit sweet tea a decade or more ago. It was the family drink of choice since Pops was a Texan. Always had a pitcher going in the fridge. The wife on the other hand had Pepsi since her mom put it in her bottle as an infant. She still drinks that stuff but not as much, she does sweet tea too. Her folks were feom Texas and Arkansas so sweet tea was a staple so to speak.

I did the damage in the summer of 84 or 85. The last time I can remember drinking a beer was our office Christmas party in 93 or 94. {cool, but not cold Saint Pauli Girl Dark} So I guess I haven't drank for over 20 years. Time flies when you are having fun, right?

I was heavy into iced tea. I would drink a gallon most days. But pain will change your view of things.

My wife has a bad Pepsi habit. She was always a thin girl, but at 63, the sugar and too many years behind a desk are telling on her. I went on a health kick about three years ago, going from 250 down to 175 pounds. I had been sitting behind my keyboard for too long as well.

I have drank a few cups of green tea lately with no ill effects. I used to do lots of fruit juices, but there are so many calories. I did a stretch counting calories, and once you learn what everything cost you in Cardio, it is hard to unlearn it.

They ought to put SUGAR on Schedual fucking 1 drugs and take cannabis off. Sugar has killed more people than any drug. I dodged type 2 diabetes by altering my diet and cut out sugar and anything with it.

Yeah man I did away with sugar a few years ago and I am fucking thrilled to do so. I am not talking about any packaged shit, its ALL sugar loaded. Everything I drink is fresh, I do have that "luxury" here

Best thing we ever did was hit the gym. She and i have been together 47 years and plan for a few more. Dropped 40 lbs and need to loose another 15 to hit my proper weight.

Amen Brother. The bad thing is we are paying for it through corn subsidies. We won't even go into the problems feeding corn to cows cause. For a few million years cows have ate grass. Changes a few commodity rules, and they get a new diet. {if they would just feed them hay the last two weeks before slaughter, it would get rid of a lot of the intestinal diseases} [sorry. I'm coming down off my soapbox now]

When I was heavy, they said I had diabetes. These days I hardly ever even think to check my sugar.

no need too, you take care of yourself. Now I may be generalizing things here, BUT if you maintain yourself with some exercise and dont eat sugar, and do eat alot of fruits and vegetables AND you add weed (and hash) in there whether it be raw and or "active" you will be sorted. You can eat meats, fish, pork, & whatever else you want or not and you will be healthy as long as you follow above. Oh yeah, plenty of water.......
