    No, I don't. I stopped drinking diet sodas about 15 years ago, they didn't agree with me, and I don't like the taste anymore. I occasionally drink sugar free flavored club soda, but not too often. Water is my drink to go, plus two cups of coffee a day.
    Once in awhile I will have a small glass of wine with dinner. However, alcohol doesn't agree with me either :'( so I stick with water.

    So weird. I was actually thinking about a question like this when I stopped off for a diet coke on my walk home today.

    I like the taste, need the caffeine, and maybe tmi but this stuff makes me wanna pee like 10 minutes after starting to drink one.

    No, I also just don't drink soda very often. I'll have a soda maybe once a month. I drink a ton of water - typically still, but sometimes bubbly (when I was living in Europe it was the other way around - typically bubbly sometimes still).

    I only drink Diet Coke when I’m having it mixed with rum. But I do typically have 1 sugar free Red Bull a day. Other than that it’s either water or unsweetened iced tea.

    Rarely. I prefer bubbly water or lemon water.

    Yes, because I like it. To me, personally, water is in a whole other league. I don't consider it a "drink". Water is for thirst, other drinks are for "I feel like drinking something for pleasure".

    Same here! When I have a diet soda it's maybe once a week because I want something different and it's out of pleasure not thirst. If I'm thirsty I'll drink water.

    Diet is usually bad for you in a completely different way than what you are looking at nutritionally!! If drink soda might as well hot for a small one!! All things in moderation!!! Moonshine and ginger ale is my lil cheat!! Haha and I must have a Dr. Pepper now and again!! But daily I drink 13 cups of water and 3 cups of sweet tea!!!

    Ummm....?
