Coca-cola is really bad for you. Any soda is actually.
But, yes, you could still lose weight and drink it, but if you don't you'll lose more weight quickly.
If you have to drink soda, see if you can find a soda NOT made with high fructose corn syrup.
They have an amazing one at Whole Foods:

No No No! No more Cokes or diet Cokes (which is worse for your body because it contains aspartame which may cause headaches, depression, slurred speech, loss of memory, fibromyalgia type symptoms, loss of sensation in lower legs or shooting pains, loss of equilibrium, vertigo, anxiety attacks, chronic fatigue, vision loss, floaters, retinal detachment, seizures, heart palpitations, etc.) if you want to lose weight. Start
eating healthier, plenty of fresh organic fruit and juices for breakfast, plenty of carbs and veggies for lunch, then a small amount of protein and veggies for dinner. Be sure to drink plenty of purified water throughout the day, though not while you are eating (the water will dilute you natural enzymes if you do).
You can start by walking or riding a bike. You'll be amazed by the results. check out www.weightlossobesity.com/dieting

I believe you can.
They have about 200 calories or something, as long as you do some intense cardio for about 20-30 minutes you should be able to burn most of it off.
The crap they use for sweetener in the diet sodas is as bad (if not worse) for you than sugar.
I believe you can eat/drink almost anything (within reason) and as long as you maintain an active lifestyle with regular workouts, then you won't have problems with weight. |

You can, but you need to burn off the extra calories from the Coke. You would be better off switching to water, or anything that has less calories. Trying to lose weight by eating pie every day. |

I think you should conscentrate more on your addiction to coke than your body. If you're craving it badly and NEED it switch to Diet Coke... yeah it's gross but at least the caffeine is still there without the calories. Dieticians tell you to drink only water, black coffee, and unsweetened tea because it is not sweet. They want you to avoid even diet pop because it tastes sweet and makes you crave the real sweet stuff. I'm starting a new diet TOMORROW, (always tomorrow), so best of luck to you... it's going to be a rough few days getting into it. If you're determined to start exercising and dieting you can DEFINITELY quit the Coke. It'll only take a few days of drowning yourself with water to start to really love it... so they say. |

Yes, but you need to watch the other things that you are eating. Keep up the exercise and drink water. Just be consistent and stick to your goal.
Good Luck. |

The trick is to burn off more than you take in. |

I'm sure it's possible.
If you eat healthy, drink a lot of water and exercies a lot. But tha'ts the hard part I think. |

It is the total number of calories you have each day that matters. Doesn't matter how you get there. |

yes as long as your calorie input is less than your calorie output you can lose weight. but good luck cause cokes are loaded with calories so your gonna have to work out like crazy! |

1991 Gulf War taught us that Diet Coke turns to a natural
FORMALDEHYDE in your system.
Don't do it, dude.
And you can do it, you're a grown-up and all...
but I hated the addiction to it, a lot of us ex-Coke addicts feel better without it.
Same for coffee and tea.
Good luck!
You don't have to be a health nut, but every little bit can help you! |

Drink Diet Coke. It taste good when you get use to the little difference in it. Why do you want to do extra exercise when quitting sugar will help you to get rid of the weight.
I had to go to diet soda for health reasons. I found the quiting butter also helped. |

Yes you can, just dont drink alot of it,maybe 1 a day. Whatever you do, dont drink diet coke. Regular pop is actually better for you then diet. Diet pop has aspartame in it and that actually blocks you from losing weight and can cause other serious problems...Here is the article

You can but you have to use the formula
Calories burned > Caloric Intake
or you won't lose weight.
Consult this chart:
http://www.annecollins.com/exercise-calories/drinks.htm
tells you how much exercise you have to do to burn a can of coke. |

Yes you could lose weight. But do you have to drink coke? If you are trying to lose weight and also keep healthy then stick to a healthy diet. Substitute coke with fresh fruit juice. You can have a coke once in a way!. |

That's around 300 calories...
For all the people who say, "drinking Coke is bad for you..." they're wrong. It's just a food source, and it's actually better for you than drinking Diet Coke, because you're not taking in aspartame or nutrasweet or any other carcinogens like that.
On most diets you are going to be putting down somewhere between 1200 and 2000 calories a day. If you can squeeze 300 in to that, go for it. Yes, there are better uses for those 300 calories, but think of it this way - if you ate nothing but carrots and iceburg lettuce all day, you would get bored very quickly, and your diet would last all of about 28 minutes.
Bottom line, be knowledgable about the foods you are putting in to your body. There are no bad foods. There are only bad ways and times to eat foods. Steak is good for you (unless you're a vegetarian). Steak is NOT good for you if you eat it every day, three times a day. Orange Juice is good for you. Orange Juice is NOT good for you if you drink a half gallon of it a day. Maybe Coke does provide empty calories, but your body needs calories too, and your brain needs treats sometimes. So in that sense, Coke is good for you too... but drinking a 6-pack of Coke a day... now that's obviously bad. Not even Coca Cola recommends that. I hope you can see where this is going. |

You'd do better with diet coke...
Your question is sort of on the lines of "Can I still eat cake and lose weight."
Yes in theory, but why would you want to make it more difficult? |

Yes you can, but realize ever 12oz of regular Coke has 140 calories, that is like running on a teadmill 15 minutes for each Coke. Is it worth it? Try only drinking one(12 oz) soda a day or one every other day, it is better for you, and you can still enjoy the carbonated, syrupy goodness. |
