Soda is such poison! Switch to flavored seltzer if you need something fizzy! I quit soda years ago and dropped twenty pounds! I also quit salt at the same time, so I think it was a combination of quitting both. 92 pounds? How tall are you? 102 is tiny!

I've been drinking mostly naturally flavored unsweetened sparkling water for about a year. It's so refreshing!

One word of warning about those cutting salt. My mother has a super restrictive diet and was convinced she was "allergic" to salt. She cut out ALL salt.. 100%. She started experiencing neurological symptoms and other symptoms of dehydration even though she drinks tons of water.... she had no electrolytes to allow the water she was ingesting to get into cells. She went to a doctor and realized that this overkill. I doubt this is common but is possible for people on very natural/restrictive diets. Moderation is key.
