"Increased sugar-sweetened beverage intake was independently associated with increased HOMA-IR, systolic blood pressure, waist circumference, and body mass index percentile for age and sex and decreased high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations, based on multivariate linear regression analyses...

'Sugar-sweetened beverage intake and physical activity levels are each independently associated with insulin resistance–associated metabolic parameters and anthropometric measurements in adolescents.'"

Translation:

Cutting Calorie intake will do just fine to get the weight off, thank you.
