Does it have any electrolytes like Brawndo?
Like, the thing where fish poop and fuck? Wtf.
Here's a couple free ones:
Quit drinking alcohol
When I quit drinking I lost about 50 pounds in 6 months with no other diet changes.
Basically stop drinking your calories.
Another one:
Only buy foods you have to prepare, no snacks.
That way you can prevent yourself from idly eating when bored.
What do you replace alcohol with? Hiking through nature? Meditation? Cocaine?
Smoking weed is fat free, sugar free, and zero calories! Just watch out for those munchies!
I have photos of what munchies can make you do.
It was delicious tho. No regrets.
Just watch out for those munchies!
Pro tip (but that works for me, that may not work for you) when you smoke weed, prepare a huge bowl of salad beforehand, an enormous one, when I'm stoned I don't care about what I'm eating as long as it's food, a huge bowl of salad is totally fine and if you don't stuff it with seasonings is pretty low on calories and actually good for your health. You can stuff yourself to stop the hunger plus eat something good and low calorie.

When I stopped drinking I found myself with a lot of free time I could dedicate to things, and also a lot of free time that I could dedicate to working on my mental health.
I was drinking about a fifth of alcohol every night (except Saturday, those were more) and none of it was less than 50% alcohol as anything less was a waste of time for me.

Cocaine is great for weight-loss..
Your second recommendation won't work for everyone. For me, when I don't have the time or energy to cook I am more likely to order unhealthy food or get take out. It helped me a lot to have easy fast healthy options at home. Frozen veggies can be thrown in the oven and then dusted with a really good spice mix. Sandwich with good whole grain bread and lean meats. Once I learned to expect at least 2 "I give up" nights a week, I was able to finally lose a few pounds.
I struggled with this for awhile my solution was literally to go hungry I might skip one or two meals but eventually the hunger pains will beat away the laziness and make it a higher priority. Once I felt the pain enough I got a positive hit from cooking I didn’t get before.

Assuming you are in good health other than wanting to lose weight the best thing you can do is buy a food scale and portion out your food and eat 1500 calories a day and no more. Eat what you want when you want just no more than 1500 and you will lose weight like crazy. That's how I did it and I lost a full person's worth of weight, like a full 50% of my body weight.

As American, can confidently say that yes, people drink soda as water. You can usually find people who drink directly out of the 2 liters but be mouth agape when you tell them you drink water from the tap
You know tap water ain't healthy, right?
People are so accustomed to sugar overload they literally can't taste anymore. I drink la croix if I want something a bit bubbly, but so many Americans make fun of la croix drinkers. "It's like smelling a lemon from 10 feet away haw haw haw".
No, drinks like that actually have a lot of flavor, but your taste buds are so constantly overwhelmed with sugar that your literal ability to taste has degradated
your literal ability to taste has degradated
Actually, hot sauce and peppers did that for me. Everything tastes like cardboard unless it comes with a few thousand Scoville of heat.

Ehh, I pretty much only drink water and never soda and I agree with La Croix being irritably mildly flavored trash.
All La Croix taste like what I imagine cardboard tastes like. I think they make it smell like the listed flavor and hope people's brains interpret it as taste.
To be fair, there are places across the world and particularly in the US where the water doesn't taste or smell good, but even then bottled water will do so much better. Though I'm in the UK, I'm considering buying myself a filter because the water tastes a little weird here. Not dangerous - just... too weird for my taste buds.
A lot of the US has fair water when it comes to taste.
Y'all Brits tho. I've had you're water. I'm usually not someone who says "water has taste", but yours does lol.
London especially, was like drinking straight out of the Thames.
Yeah I'd get a filter if I lived there lol. Ours tastes like crisp refreshing nothing, like better than bottled

A lot of people in the US don't trust the water, which is strange because you would think that would make people act when a city actually does lose their local water safety but...

A lot of tap water isn't healthy.
My towns tap water is on a boil notice a few times a month at least.
Soda being unhealthy =/= tap water being healthy

Wait? American and your soda bottles use litres?
Haha, I never thought of it that way but yes. 2L sodas are the most common, but I've also seen 1L and 3L bottles. I've seen 500mL and 750mL liquor as well. I can't think of anything else that uses metric units. Milk comes in gallons, pints, or quarts for instance.

La Croix is vile. I drink unsweetened ice tea instead lol. I have between 1 and 3 gallons of it in my fridge at all times
they literally can't taste anymore
Figuratively.
People are so accustomed to sugar overload they literally can't taste anymore. I drink la croix if I want something a bit bubbly, but so many Americans make fun of la croix drinkers. "It's like smelling a lemon from 10 feet away haw haw haw".
Considering la croix is not sweet, you will have literally the same experience as someone with taste buds that are 100% burned out from sugar. The lemon flavor is recognized by the sense of smell, and to some degree the sour sensing tastebuds.
