A state judge is saying not so fast on New York City's big soda ban.

The ban set to start March 12th would restrict restaurants from selling sugary drinks larger than 16 ounces. Mayor Michael Bloomberg calls it portion control and says it will help stop obesity. The ruling is a major defeat for the mayor.
