More likely you're skinny because your body uses insulin to burn the sugar efficiently. However, if you had any form of insulin resistance, as a huge number of people do, that much Mountain Dew would put the pounds on you.
I haven't had a soda in 15 years. The only beverages I consume are unsweetened tea and bottled water. I walk over 10 miles a week, and eat very little. Yet I fight constantly to lose weight because my body doesn't metabolise sugar correctly. It's insane to assume a that diet and exercise are the solution to weight loss when over 50 percent of the population is overweight, even most of those who diet and exercise.
