    It won't mess up your weight loss, but I usually try to limit myself to a can of diet soda a day because of the artificial sweetener and phosphorous and their effect on my kidney problems.

    There are articles out there that say it will mess up your weight loss, but I've never had a problem with it. I try to limit myself with diet sodas like laserturkey^^^, because, like he said, the artificial sweetener isn't healthy. There are some natural sodas out there, like Izze, which are low in calories and taste like soda, but no aspartame! They're yummy, you should give them a try!

    Here is a qute from a Mens Health article on diet soda.

    "Think choosing no-calorie diet over the regular sugary soda is the smarter choice? Maybe not. A recent study found that diet sodas drinkers have larger waistlines than non-drinkers."

    Here is the link to the complete article. After reading it I have stopped drinking soda except for a mixer when I have my JD & coke.

    Likewise. I've never had a problem with weight loss and diet soda, but I limit it due to kidney issues.

    Love your avatar, by the way. :heart:

    YES... Diet soda has been linked to kidney problems, metabloc sydrome, Obisity (artificial sweeteners still make the body hungry, and you are more likely to overeat), Midoconrial Cell Damage(the presevatives), Rotting Teath(diet soda has a PH of 3.2, perspective, battery acid is 1, water is 7 or higher).

    I'm an EX Diet Coke Drinker, Once i started researching things a little i gave it up cold turker, and i was, like you, at almost a 2L a day!
