If you’ve been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes, you may feel like losing weight and controlling your blood sugar is an uphill battle. One of the biggest hidden obstacles? Sugary drinks. Sodas, sweet tea, lemonade, and even fruit juices flood your system with sugar, keeping insulin levels high and making it harder to burn fat.
In this episode of The Beating Diabetes Lifestyle Podcast, I share my personal journey of overcoming type 2 diabetes, starting with reducing and eventually cutting out sugary drinks. I’ll break down how liquid sugar affects your body, why it fuels insulin resistance, and how eliminating it helped me lose over 80 pounds and get off all medications.
But cutting sugary drinks is just the beginning. I’ll also introduce the role of intermittent fasting—one of the most effective tools for stabilizing blood sugar, lowering insulin levels, and making long-term weight loss sustainable.
If you’re ready to take control of your health, this episode will give you practical steps to start making real progress today.

I’m often asked two questions when people learn that I used to weigh 268 pounds, lost over 80 lbs, and was able to reverse Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) in less than a year:
1. What diet program did I use?
2. How am I able to keep the weight off?
Are you having difficulty losing weight and keeping it off, even though you’re on a “good” diet program? You’re probably at the point where you want to fix the problem because your diet isn’t working.
That highly restrictive diet program someone recommended likely has you:

Gentlemen, is your waistline 40 inches or more? The trouble with belly fat is that it's not limited to the layer of padding just below the skin. That's called subcutaneous fat. Belly fat also includes visceral fat. And that fat lies deep inside the abdomen and surrounds the internal organs.
Regardless of a person's overall weight, having a large amount of belly fat raises the risk of:
Gut health is more than just about losing stomach fat and developing a 6-pack.
Fellas, we care a lot about aesthetics. But we have to focus more on what takes place on the inside. Your internal health is more important than how you look in the mirror.

Gentlemen, a healthy gut isn’t just about having 6-pack abs and only having 6% body fat. If you’re struggling with fatigue, forgetfulness, lack of focus, allergies, constant colds, constipation, diarrhea, excess gas, weight gain, or bloating, you definitely should give a listen.
You can’t out-exercise poor gut health, even though consistent exercise can help to improve your health.

If you’ve been diagnosed with pre-diabetes or type 2 diabetes, one of the best ways to not only control your blood sugar levels but to also put you in a better position to reverse your condition is to limit the amount of sugary drinks you consume daily.
Many diabetics don’t realize the impact that sugary drinks are having on their bodies. From high glucose (blood sugar levels) to fatigue and weight gain, you would be surprised to know the long-term negative effects that liquid sugar can have on your body.
Research shows that getting sugar in liquid form is much worse than getting it from solid food. This is why high-sugar beverages like soda are among the worst things you can put into your body.
