    Let's forget for a second about whether or not Aspartame is good for you (it's not) and talk about the fact that Diet Soda tastes f**kin' nasty!

    People are so judgmental!! She didn't say she was living off of diet coke. She said sometimes she has one at night if she's feeling hungry. Good grief! If you like the tip, good if you don't...then good. Don't do it.

    umm the tip is wrong..you wont gain wait if you eat after 6pm..

    sorry but I refute bad advice..

    and why not drink water instead?

    1. It's ok to have a diet drink
    2. Water doesn't fill you up

    It may be the wrong tip for you, but some of us actually enjoy a diet drink once in a while. :wink:

    Thanks...but no thanks. If I'm hungry I would rather eat something; or in lieu of eating I would prefer a protein shake or even plain water to a diet Coke.

    I will agree with the obesity aspect of Diet Coke as my ex-mother-in-law drank only Diet Coke and she weighed over 400 lbs. That and the aspartame is horrible for your body.
    HAAHAHAHAH- utter nonsense. this literally made me snortlaugh. If you drank nothing but diet coke, for your entire calorie intake you would a) probably die, and b) be super skinny and seriously malnourised. it was all the food your ex mother in law ate that made her 400lbs....

    cringe.

    "Good grief" is right. It's one thing to choose something for oneself. It is quite another to promote/advise it to others. Yes, I will be totally "judgemental" when someone recommends eating anything other than real food when one is hungry.

    She's not telling you to do it! You are a big girl, make your own decisions. She's telling people what works for her. This place is supposed to be for helping each other, not tearing people to shreds. Some of you really should be ashamed.
    so when people post in a public forum a tip that we think is bunk, we should all just say "hooooray, great job! Such a great idea! sorry it does not work that way...

    I'm sorry, but she does not need to be shredded for it. If you don't agree with it, move on. People are not going out in masses and buying up all the diet coke because of it. And nobody has saved a life here by getting on their high horses and pointing out how dumb it is. Seriously.

    She's a big girl, she can take it. If not then she will just not post stupid topics like this in the future.

    You may think it's stupid, but maybe I think some of *your* eating habits are stupid. I see you eat cottage cheese and also brown rice. Disgusting! Why would you eat that crap? Just stupid. I refuse to support a diet full of crap that I wouldn't eat! :angry:
    (That felt good to hear, didn't it? :wink:)

    I stopped drinking diet soda before all the studies came out. I became more hungry (STARVED actually) like a half hour after I drank diet soda and it made me crave sugar like there was no tomorrow. Also fruits didnt taste sweet to me. Ever since I cut out artificial sweeteners, fruit tastes so sweet to me now.

    Did you consider that perhaps you aren't eating enough if you are still hungry after you are done eating? :huh:






    In for the ridiculous condemnation of aspartame!

    Also carbonation is a contributor to cellulite. No thanks since I already have loads of that.

    Welp, that was a nice, heavy dose of misinformation and paranoia to go with my morning coffee.

    I'm glad it works for you. I quit all diet soda completely because I wasn't losing weight, and I was getting migraines.

    Since I quit drinking diet soda, I've lost 21 pounds and have only had one headache instead of having them almost daily.

    Diet soda is really bad for you. Why not drink some water instead?

    Sorry Secert Sundays I strongly have to slap the wrist on this one! Contrary to popular belief, diet soda such as Diet Coke and other diet beverages are made with artificial sweeteners like aspartame are not healthy at all, and they do not bring about weight loss. Studies clearly show that those people that drink soda has a higher impact on slowing down weight loss and in the long term gain weight. So please don't drink soda take that other major drink of water. It is much better in the long run.

    Don't you love seeing people order a Big Mac and fries then ask for a diet coke.

    Not sure about diet stuff. To me it just tastes bad. Sweeteners whether they are bad for our bodies or not, just taste chemical.

    I don't eat after 8 ish. I would say if you are getting hungry at night then keep some calories back from earlier in the day. It's got to be better than drinking caffeinated drinks late on in the day.

    Aspartame did in fact begin it's life as a pesticide. There have been many cases reported of aspartame poisoning. Granted, a lot of things we consume have dangers, especially in excess. I limit my diet sodas to once a week, if that much.

    I'm unclear whether your're joking or not. Aspertame was NEVER produced as a pesticide - it was a by-product of an ulcer drug, if my memory serves. and one of your links for a double-blind study proved that aspertame doesn't cause headaches (in fact, caused LESS headaches that the placebo).

    Diet coke is a fine option. I would think the worse advice ever would include something to do with human sacrifice and the like.

    I prefer rum. Unless I have a cold, then it's whiskey.

    Yeah, but crack is actually proven to be bad for you.
