Chips and Diet Coke - Please Help!
This is my weakness. I'm not a sugar person. I literally lived off this. Diet coke to me is like smoking is to smokers. It's not the caffeine either, because I prefer decaf diet coke. If I follow my diet/exercise plan, can I still have diet coke and "some" chips at night. I like the baked chips....but please don't ask me…
