NYC gives supersized sugary drinks two thumbs down

 
NYC’s mayor is cracking down on the sale of sugary drinks in order to help stop the spread of obesity. His idea is to ban the sale of sweetened beverages that are larger than 16 ounces anywhere but in grocery stores. Right now, the city is simply waiting for this new law to be approved by the Health Department, and it could be enacted by next March.

 

 

The question is: Why are drinks being targeted as a way to kick extra cals? Well, soda and other sweet drinks are a serious source of empty calories. There’s nothin’ nutritious about fizzy, sugary water that packs as many calories as a cookie, especially when it doesn’t make ya feel full. You may not realize it, but if you’re drinking a flavored iced coffee, for instance, you could be takin’ in hundreds of calories.

 

This ban will affect everything from flavored iced coffees to lemonade to sodas. There are a few exemptions, though. Milk-based beverages, fruit juices and alcoholic drinks will be excluded from the ban. Businesses are already thinking of ways to get around it, too, with deals like free refills or two-for-ones.

 

What’s your take, chickies? Do you think this will help people stay healthy?

I want an Ipod touch SO badly, but i'm broke. What could I do that is simple and easy?




Hey Girl!

I don't know how old you are but you could always apply for a part time job. Or try baby sitting, mowing lawns, washing cars, etc. 

Maybe your parents and relatives will give you a few $$ to take care of extra chores




best of luck!

ok so last night i watched a movie called vegucated. it was about 3 people who adopted a vegan diet for 6 weeks and learned what its all about. it showed how different animals were processed i guess for meat and other products. its terrible how they are treated. anyways now i want to be a vegan. i just dont know if thats possible cause we always have some kind of meat or dairy product in our meals. i want to be a vegan really badly i just dont know how to act on it. thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




hey girl, 

maybe you could talk to your parents about buying animal free products?  There are tons of cookbooks and recipes out there for Vegan cooking.




best of luck,

But people don't WANT to have healthy stuff. It's not 'abusing their freedom' at all! It's their choice! We should not be controlling people's eating! Yes,people are getting obese,but that's their problem! It's getting to be very,very controlling in America and quiet honestly,it's worrying.

This is totally ridiculous. The government should not be controlling what people consume. We live in America where you are SUPPOSED to have free will. This is one step closer to becoming a communist contry, which is right where we're headed.
On another note, being obese is something that only effects you. It's not harming anyone or anything around you, that's your personal decision and the government has no right to make that for you.

Take the stairs more than once. When you’re at home, run up and down the stairs three or four times before heading to your room. It’s a sneaky way to stay active.
