    My son got a SodaStream machine when he decided to give up soda, and it is wonderful! It fizzes your plain water, and then you can add flavoring to it if you want to. A squirt of lime juice and a couple drops of stevia, and you have a low-carb natural lime soda.

    Currently riding on the bus with a 20 can case of Diet Coke in my lap lol

    I'm not affected by it though

    Well, I am going to see how long I go without one, if there is a difference in weight loss, its gone for good. If not, I'll have one ury now and then

    Not sure if it's related, but I didn't have any diet drinks yesterday and weighed in again today and was 1 pound down. Probably pure coincidence but it's enough to keep me on track for now.

    You too! So far we have just seen lots of rain, but it looks like the wind is picking up now.

    Glad to hear he likes it - I was wondering what type to get - the choice is overwhelming - so are some of the prices but I have seen SodaStream here

    OK I ordered a Soda Stream Starter kit but it cost 1/3 the cost in the American Amazon than the Canadian Amazon - worth going across the border to pick it up if you live close enough. In the Canadian Amazon it costs $333.14 in the American Amazon I got it for $126 with 2 extra cartridges. We Canadians can never have anything nice. Day 2 no Coke - not a problem.

    But...we have universal healthcare and that dreamy Justin Trudeau lol

    I agree with you, it costs way more for stuff here in Canada than it does in America.

    I had a similar problem. I hit a plataeu on my low carb, then was putting on half a pound a week.
    I gave up the artificial sweetners, as recommended by posters on MFP and Ive now lost that weight and broken through the plateau.

    Ok, I think I have all the encouragement here to cut them!! I was drinking about 3 diet sodas per day. I will switch to Truvia (sparingly) in my tea and only have Mio once daily in my Ketoade. Does that sound like a good plan?!
