Yet another good reason to NOT drink diet soda.
Besides the fact that it tastes awful, and doesn't hold a candle to regular soda.
This slideshow features some food we often associate with being healthy that are actually not so much.
Some surprises include the diet soda, pretzels and my favorite - VitaminWater.
That is my drank!
Yes, I said drank. Whatever.
But there is a bright spot. The slideshow also has some healthy foods that get a bad rap.
I know, I'm overjoyed, too.
Gotta love eating healthy.


Hey Michelle,
Just wanted to say that I love your blog! Thanks for the info on the pseudo healthy foods, it's helpful stuff to know. I came across your site about 2 weeks ago and I appreciate your honesty and humor with the weight loss difficulties. I feel like I definitely relate to you, even down to the ankle injury(though mine was not nearly as severe)I fell down the steps chasing one of our rotten little dogs and tore some tendons in my foot. Sucked, because I had just gotten in a habit of exercising and BAM! I was down for several months. Haven't seemed to be able to get back into a routine since that...Anyway, I'm rambling, sorry for the length, and thank you for putting yourself out there and sharing your journey!
