    is no one else here worried about the amount of caffeine in diet sodas? in most cases there is more than in a regular soda. Not to mention if you are already a coffee/tea drinker.
    i reckon you're better off enjoying a regular soda in moderation or sparkling water (with a slice of lemon or orange) if its the fizz that you miss

    No, no one. And don't presume to know what I miss. I love Diet Dr. Pepper.

    I do drink it at work. I don't actually buy it anymore...I stick to water or tea (or coffee). But at work, its free, and having that to drink instead of water makes it more likely that I will drink enough.

    I drink 16 oz of regular fountain Pepsi daily. Refuse to give it up and just can't embrace diet soda. I've lost 10 lbs and only lose 1/2 a lb a week but I'm ok with that. (Previously drank 44 oz a day.)

    I will, but only rarely. It gives me a stomach ache if I drink too much. I pretty much only drink water.

    No. I rarely drink any soda at all. *Never* the diet stuff. Ever.

    I seem to have a hard time parting ways with diet coke. Do you guys indulge in diet sodas? And if you do, how often?

    I keep telling myself the diet coke is not adding any extra calories to my diet but I have heard that artificial sweeteners tend to pack on the pounds all the same.


    What's your take on it?

    Hi I dont drink any soft drinks at all, i drink Natural Mineral Water. i f i feel like a fizzy now i drink Waterfords Natural Mineral Water diet Blood orange for 500mls 12 calories.

    I used to but after much research I have switched to Pepsi One. It is still tech. a "diet" drink but it is sweetened with splenda instead of aspartame and is supposed to be better for you in that regard (I believe diet rite is also made with splenda instead). I was less worried about the weight effects of diet drinks however, and more concerned about all the scary side effects you read on the artificial sweeteners :(

    I'm constantly drinking diet soda. I work at a fast food place, and we have one of those epic touch screen machines. It hasn't impacted my weight at all. However, I DO notice that now I am accustomed to drinking sweet beverages. Water isn't good enough anymore. So I keep packets of crystal lite around and will go for 100% fruit juice if I have enough cals.

    I do not like diet sodas at all. I have had them times before, but can never acquire a taste for them, I find them disgusting and to be honest pointless. If I cannot enjoy a soda and get the fulfillment out of it, I may as well not drink any soda at all! And that's how I feel about diet sodas. I don't do it, I just drink water instead.

    However, I do yearn so bad for a regular soda every now and then (like every 2 to 3 days, which I'm trying to break). Even then, when I have to cheat a bit, I will only drink 8 fluid ounces of the soda of my choice and have one that day. After that, it goes back to water. If I drink sodas, it only makes me more thirsty and want more of whatever it is that keeps me coming back for more.
