    I just gave up the diet coke coz it made me really bloated with the gas.

    That’s short lived for me. *burp*

    That's the best part of diet Coke.

    Since I hate coffee and love sodas, it’s Diet Pepsi for the win. Triple score for being diabetic.

    Coffee has many times the amount of caffeine and if I drank that vile stuff I’d be up all night. Besides the water doesn’t sizzle.

    <----body by beer over there. Don't drink that (in excess) if you want to be fit. That is another topic, though.

    Water is better than either as it has nothing that is "bad" for you. Both have caffeine which "bad" for you. Diet Soda has a whole bunch of other chemicals that are "bad" for you.

    How are caffeine and diet soda "bad" for you. Be specific, and preferably cite sources.
    Talking about minute amounts, though. To any normal person that isn't downing several POTS of coffee or CASES of diet soda a day, go ahead and drink whatever you prefer. There isn't enough "bad" in either coffee or diet soda to make a difference.

    Still should shoot for a couple glasses of plain ol' water a day, though. I can't imagine only drinking caffeinated drinks all day. How would you go to sleep?



    Oh, and, Like a baby. Until I hit 30.

    Don't get me wrong, I can still chug a mt dew and go right to sleep, but the sleep won't be quite as good.
