Coke Zero Vs. Diet Coke

I find Coke Zero to be only slightly less nasty then Diet Coke. Artificial sweeteners are gross. I'm mostly a water drinker, but if I want a soda, I will take the calories and have the real thing.

Neither, i am just fine with water!

I wouldn't drink either. Use to drink coke zero. Lost 15 lbs the month I quit. I only drank like 4 a day. Zero tastes better than diet coke. I drink tea sweetened with splenda after I have had at least 3L of water a day. I did have horrible leg cramps at night. They are gone since no coke zero. Aspartames has side effects of leg cramps. Not sure if it was that, but I had had them for years.

I like Coke Zero quite a bit and have a couple a week. I used to drink diet coke but the coke zero has way less sodium so I go with that one .

I've always preferred diet coke whether I've been dieting or not lol x

I was addicted to Coke Zero, after everything I read about artificial sweeteners I think I'm done with diet cola. If I treat myself to a cola, it'll be the real deal and make up for it on the treadmill.

Edit: By addicted I mean no less than 64oz. a day. Anything is fine in moderation and harmful in excess.

You should try the flavored water from walmart! Its carbonated, so you get the pop craving you want and they have amazing flavors! I have recently been mixing them with wine to cute calories there, makes a wine spritzer!

I was drinking 3-4 Cokes a day when I reached my HW. The first thing I did to lose weight was drop them for Diet Coke or Coke Zero. I prefer Coke Zero, but until this summer, I had been drinking 3-4 of those per day. I have read all the stuff on artificial sweeteners, so I'm trying to cut back. Except for last weekend when I was out of town and not eating or drinking like I should, I've been sticking to one per day. It's tough, but I think worth it. There is supposedly a version of one or the other (maybe both?) with Stevia instead. If I find that, will definitely try it. Otherwise, gonna keep drinking for now with the hope that I can give it all up before too long.

To replace the caffeine, I have started trying to drink green tea. Unsweetened.

Either is fine with me. Lately I have been choosing coke zero!

I like Diet Coke because it DOESNT taste like Coke. Regular coke is too sweet and syrupy for me. No harm drinking them as long as youre not drinking like... cans and cans a day.

^^^ THIS! Glad I'm not the only one who feels that way.

I love Coke Zero so much. Tastes alot like the real thing. That being said I do not drink soda anymore for several reasons. I just dont think it is all that good for you from many things I have read. I stick to the water, green teas etc. Much better for me and I feel better. Less bloating, less heartburn etc.

I like Coke Zero more than Diet Coke.But I prefer Pepsi Maxx. I am a coffeine junky.

if given those two choices, i'd take coke zero every time

diet dr pepper (cherry is best) and cherry coke zero are the best

i don't drink soda anymore though, unless i'm splurging

I hate the sweeter taste but I can fool myself with diet ginger beer or a diet tango

Sugar doesn't cause inflammation, it raises/spikes insulin which "turns off" fatburning because it's an incoming fuel source. Sweetners, MAY produce the same response because sensory wise they mimic sugar. Some studies say it does, sone don't. And people tend to eat more when they think they are getting free calories.
