    In my experience as a server, fat people drink diet soda or sweet tea, young people drink regular soda, and thin people drink unsweet tea, coffee, and water. Some thin people drink diet soda and regular soda, but they usually only drink one glass. The overweight people drink 4-6.

    Diet drinks contain aspartame one of the most dangerous food additives known non diet drinks contain sugar,a good answer might be to drink regular drinks but not as many,I dont drink any of this stuff anyway! Google Aspartame its really frightening!

    isn't this like saying short people are more likely to buy high heels?

    wait... i'm supposed to be doing that too.... who makes up these rules??? how does one keep up with all of them

    I don't know, but I'm tall. Should I stop buying high heels? I'm so confused! :cry:
    I'm quite tall as well, and I just bought a few pair of heels. Do I need to return them?

    Also, I've never drank diet soda; I'd rather drink water.

    This can't be true. Where did you get your information?

    I don't drink a lot of soda but I have been drinking Diet Soda of one type or another for so long that regular soda is cloying.

    The one exception is bonafide ginger beer (not ginger ale) For that I want the real thing and it doesn't take a lot of effort to find it made with cane sugar and not HFCS.

    Oh hai Ms Judgy. Please tell me more why it would be better to compound that heart attack with an additional 300-400 calories.

    Diet soda is most likely consumed through the mouth

    I agree, I drank diet coke way before I was fat! If I go out now, it's usually when I'm not concerned too much with cals for the day (which is quite rare, but happens), I always start with a diet whatever, because I honest to jeebus prefer the taste of most diet drinks to the "full flavor" ones. They all taste bitter to me. I have had some servers who were pretty judgemental about it, but idgaf. I just stare at them while I'm eating my fried food and slowly sipping my DIET beverage...

    Sorry, where are you getting your research? I'm going to have to ask you to back that up with a published paper, including the rebuttal from the opposite side of this "theory."
