The excess calories come from the sugar in these drinks unless it's a cream based sugary drink then it comes from both.

You missed the point of my comment. TW said he lost weight because he cut out sugar. What he simply did was also cut out calories by cutting out sugar. He'd have lost the same weight if he cut out the same amount of calories but from fat as well. And yes, he will be healthier to decrease the amount of sugar he is taking in because he is decreasing his total caloric intake and losing weight. I'm just stating that it doesn't just have to be from sugar. I think you agree with that as well?
We aren't really disagreeing that much Buc. I still think personal accountability is a huge issue. EVERYONE knows eating shit all day is bad for you. Let's stop blaming the food companies though as I do like Oreos every week and I've managed to have them and not be fat. It's not the food companies fault the guy buying the same Oreos I am is having a pack a week and getting fat.
