So.... I tried the mini-cans and they worked out great. But then last week I tried my first Coke Zero. There will be no turning back! Those things are awesome! Thanks everyone for the advice.0

I switched from cherry coke to pepsi max cherry. Then I gradually got bored of that too. Now I have a cherry coke as a treat once a week or so, occasionally have a pepsi max but otherwise sugar free squash with fizzy water seems to solve all lifes problems0

I don't really get it - if you enjoy carbonated beverages, why not try a diet soda or carbonated water? Not every food/drink you consume has to be rich in micronutrients, and I don't see anything unhealthy about consuming something because you enjoy it, particularly a diet soda/carbonated water that has no calories and is essentially just for hydration. Just my $0.02 but it sounds like you're overthinking things.

I totally gave up soda, because it contains too much sugar, and as for diet soda, I have reservations about the chemicals used to sweeten. Diet soda may be OK ...maybe not ...
Who knows?
I just switched to water with lemon and green tea.
I'll go through a gallon of liquid intake every day easily not counting my veggie/fruit juice mix.0 -
I enjoy drinking about 1/4 cup light fruit juice topped with sparkling water. Or sparkling water with a squeeze or lemon if I'm feeling fancy.0

I'd do coke!... so long as you're not diabetic that would affect your system having that sweet tooth for soda, just drink it up with moderation. If you worry about taking in more calories with your soda routine, just exert extra effort to burn 'em. Cheers! zizt!0

Be prepared to be shocked a lot on MFP then.
Diet soda in sensible moderation is perfectly fine and there is no need to change from it unless you particularly prefer something else.
I drink a few diets sodas per week and have no intention of quitting or of changing to coconut water. ( Bleugh)
Since I have no issues from drinking diet soda, why should I change it??
