From soda to fruit juice?

Over the past two months I have managed to ween myself off of soda completely. I went from having a refrigerator full of every soft drink you can think of to haveing a refrigerator full of fruit juices, water and teas. None of the fruit juices I have been drinking are from concentrates and none of the teas are instant teas. It's all 100% real juice or brewed teas with no preservatives or artificial flavors.

I did not do this to lose weight, just be healthier.

I am just curious as to if their is anything negative about making this switch or if I have made a good decision.

    Good decision,.. great decision. Mostly because of any synthetic flavoring or dyes in the soda's.. and the enormous amount of sugar you were ingesting.

    Keep with it! You are probably losing weight as well, albeit slightly.

    Great decision. I would still be careful with the fruit juices since they contain a lot of sugar, but I do know of a study that found that it was only sugar sweetened drinks that are associated with weight changes. From a health perspective it is obviously great, because you now get all the nutrients, instead of just empty sugars.
