I have been drinking it for the past four weeks and I have still lost 9lbs....I just drink it very moderately......because its best of course to drink something other than soda....but if you have to have that "soda fix" every now and then (like me) its fine:)0

I am no expert but I do want to be a nutritionist someday and I am going to school for it...my personal opinion about Coke Zero and any diet soda for that matter is that it is complete poison on every level. The sweetness of it comes from artificial sweetners which = chemicals! Personally I believe it is better to drink normal sugary soda than to put your body through the havoc of diet sodas. To answer your question though, will it make you gain weight? no; but it certainly won't help in your effort to lose weight either. It can however cause bloating, constipation, fatigue, headaches, kidney problems, skin problems, depression...etc. The thing is that your body knows what to do with sugar, but it doesn't have the slightest clue what to do with chemicals. If you really love soda, my advice to you would be to try sparkling water with lemon or lime or whatever other fruit you want in it. Some people ( I know many) find that they are more attached to the refreshing effervesence of soda rather than the sugar anyhow. As for the artificial sweetner thing...you should really give Stevia a try! It's a completely natural fiber supplement that just happens to be sweet, and you can put it in just about everything. I carry it in my purse.0

yes..thanks for this post
with all the calorie counting in the desire to lose weight, it can be easy to lose sight of the real goal which is a healthy body
drinking something because it has zero calories and not paying attention to what the ingredients are can be short sighted.
Instead of focusing on the number of calories, focus instead on the number of nutrients.0
