Hey Everyone,
Im 25 and have been batteling my weight alot in the past year due to health issues (Crohns disease and a two knee injuries). Im basically just trying to get myself in a healthy lifestyle and get fit.

My biggest hurdle: Im a coke addict (haha!) Seriously though soda is my weakness, and the habit I know I need to break. The other is getting my but motivated to actually workout.

How is the Coke addiction coming? I used to have a coworker, that decided to drink a bottle of water before she was allowed to drink a can of coke. It was tough at first, but after a week or so, she no longer wanted the coke once she was done her water bottle. Then she started noticing how bad her sugar highs were and how bloated the carbonated soda was making her, and now she won't tough any soda. Maybe this could work for you too?

Have your tried yoga and pilates? They shouldn't bother your knees too much.
