I’m currently slowly losing weight for summer via a 500 kcal deficit. So far, this has produced about a 1.5-2 pound per week loss. My question is, are there any health consequences in general or body composition consequences from consuming non-diet soda during weight loss provided that I’m getting enough protein, continuing to train, and am not overshooting my calorie goal for the day? I’m currently eating 2100 kcal per day and I’m getting between 190-200g protein every day. Carbs and fats aren’t tracked as closely with respect to each other - I just make sure I get my protein and stay under 2100 kcal per day. To this point, I haven’t found it difficult to fit in a non-diet soda while sticking to my daily calorie limit. Should I stop doing this? I’m currently in phase 2 of the beginner program and have begun incorporating the GPP conditioning.
Thanks
