Hey, dude, regardless of all the donut holes being donut holes, I get what you were trying to do. We are not all looking for fights on the forum. We are not all trying to disparage everything everyone else says. Thank you for your post. Keep coming back.

I get what you are trying to do too. A euphemism is still an insult though.0 -

We also won't all just automatically agree just because someone read an article in Woman's Day magazine and decides that it's the truth.0 -

I drink diet Pepsi, diet Coke and diet Root Beer, whichever is on sale that week I buy it and drink several cans a day, plus 10 8oz glasses of water!! Haven't died yet, plus my blood work is excellent!!! The irony of that!!! :laugh:
Now this is the only lunacy in here. Drink Diet Coke or Diet Pepsi...whatever's on sale?!?! Declare your allegiance heretic! One cannot simply switch back and forth - and don't decide to be one of "those" Diet Pepsi people.0 -

This. The only thing you're doing wrong is drinking Diet Pepsi. :sick:0 -

I don't drink diet juice, I tend to stick to either water, more commonly water with a splash of squash or for a "fizzy treat" flavoured water, but I rarely buy that now and prefer cold weak squash0

I happen to agree with you. My whole family has been so much healthier since we went to organic food and label reading( ingredients I don't have to look up to know what it is
). They hardly every get sick and have really good attitudes about it. I thought it was a nice suggestion to look out for.
A lot diet foods have ingredients that are not conducive for weight loss. IE fake sugars. I hope no one takes offence to this post, it's just my thoughts.0 -
Health isn't just about food though. My DD hasn't been sick in bed for over 3 years, my DW for 2 years and myself for 4 years and I can promise you we don't eat organic or "clean".I happen to agree with you.

We do count calories and macros/micros, we exercise and we get plenty of rest and have low stress, which I would attribute much more to less illness than just eating organic.
And I'll disagree with the reference to artificial sweeteners. A "zero calorie" artificial sweetener isn't responsible for people gaining weight since it doesn't add calories. Nor is there scientific evidence that it actually causes cravings.
Personally myself, I've been drinking diet soda for over 25 years and have yet to suffer from the supposed maladies that many "naturalist's" and "holistic" people claim are caused by it.
It's been touched on by some here, but peer reviewed clinical studies help to resolve some of the "I heard it's bad for you" hearsay.
