I convinced a coworker to give up soda for a month and she dropped 5 pounds with trying ( her eating habits are pretty bad ).

I have heard more than a few stories of people dropping 30 lbs doing nothing other than giving up soda and other beverages for water.
That's what my brother used to do. Anytime he wanted to lose 10 lbs, he just stopped drinking soda and getting fast food. And heck, it worked like a charm!
