I literally cannot fathom why anyone drinks soda. My parents never let me drink it and never drank it themselves (though wine was always allowed). The other day I had a sip of Coke and it was so sweet it gave me an instant headache and I needed a full glass of water after. Why do people ever give their kids soda knowing how terrible it is for you?

Are you saying that you don't understand why anyone does anything that's bad for them?

I drink soda, mostly diet, love Ice Cream and sweets and usually have a cheat day on the weekend and probably overeat once or twice during the week.

I also enjoy exercising and workout about 5-7 hours a week. There is a balance. It's no different than earning more and spending more.
