The city Health Department is trying to shock New Yorkers out of their Coke and Pepsi habits. A new ad campaign that will be plastering the walls of subway cars and airing on local TV over the next two months will illustrate the effects of drinking just one soda a day.

One ad features the 50 pounds of sugar that would be consumed in a year by someone who drank 20 ounces of the fizzy stuff a day.
A second ad will map the three-mile course from Union Square to Brooklyn that someone would have to walk to burn off a single soda.
“Sugary drinks are the largest single source of added sugar in the diet, and a child’s risk of obesity increases with every additional daily serving of a sugary drink,” said Health Commissioner Thomas Farley.
The ads are part of the department’s “pouring on the pounds” campaign, which has included stomach-churning images of soda transforming into fat as it hits the glass.
