    Coke Zero/Cherry coke zero/vanilla coke zero.. i drink probably two cans a day at least. Love that stuff. Diet dr Pepper is the only diet pop I can drink.

    When it comes to diet sodas, it's the store brand ones that often taste bad [I'm looking at you, Diet Dr Thunder]. Some of the fruit flavored diet sodas are decent, but most are not. My favorites tend to be diet root beer [Diet A&W] and diet ginger ale [Diet Canada Dry and, if I want a good kick to it, Diet C*** & Bull ginger ale].

    I love my store brand Diet Grapefruit. I bought it grudgingly when my store did not have Diet Squirt and I found I liked it better. It's more grapefruity than the Squirt.

    I've been on a big diet ginger ale with a squeeze of lime kick. Mmmmm.

    Diet Dr. Pepper is LOVE.

    I also love Diet A&W Root Beer. It's bizarre. Doesn't even taste diet to me.

    I have been addicted to diet soda for sometime now. I love it, it's like crack for me really. LOL. I'm having a hard time giving it up, it has started to break out my skin with acne really bad. If I stop drinking soda for a few weeks my face clears up. But just one can will break my face out overnight! :(

    Mello yellow zero. It hits all the happy notes for this one-time Mountain Dew drinker.

    I'll have to try that sometime if I ever find any. I get most of my diet sodas from Kroger, and the only store brand ones from there I like [Big K brand] is Diet Orange and Diet Drop Red [their version of Diet Big Red soda].

    I can not drink diet... I would rather drink water over that crap. The problem is I have an altered since of taste since I can not smell, and the stuff in diet is bitter not sweet. I have simply decided that I will just have a single coke or Pepsi here and there and just count it as a treat. I can not have them at home because I will drink a 2L in a single sitting!

    Coke zero is my go to, I'm not a fan of diet coke I don't like the taste. Dr Pepper Zero also. I really need to find some diet root beer.

    Have you tried the Ice drinks? They have lots of flavors. I like the black raspberry and peach nectarine the best.

    Frankly I think boredom is a much bigger risk to a diet.
    I don't think you are fully aware of the depth of what you just said here :)
    All my attempts to stay at a healthy weight failed, until I realized I'm not weak, I just NEED TASTE. And when I can't get it through food (and I would eat and overeat boring ordinary food as well as boring diet food), I hunted down candy, ice cream, cookies and chips. After discovering MFP, I am sticking - effortlessly - to an ordinary diet filled with lots of variety, in appropriate amounts.

    When trying to get enough water in, it's great to have a diet soda now and then.
    Personally I hate diet soda, I'm not particularly crazy about regular soda either; but I like to drink water, and I also like black tea and coffee now.

    Coke and Red Bull are the main reason i have to be on diet right now. So addicted to that stuff with normally a 1500 kcal a day extra because of that. Now a few diet alternatives drinks a day and a lot of water. I hate how people are now teaching me 'oh, you are diet? But still drinking diet soda? Did you know that also really bad!!' And then they will have some pseudosciences explanaition

    Didn't they just discover that diet soda is tricking the body into thinking it needs more sugar and causing people to over eat more or something like that?
