    Look at the sodium content on those drinks.

    It's not much, why?

    Agreed! If you're watching your sodium, they don't help!!

    I have noticed that I crave certain foods more when I drink diet pop. I was on and off diet pop so often that I noticed the pattern.

    Getting off that stuff is one of the best things I've done.

    I like my Diet Coke. I do limit myself to one 12 oz can a day. Is it really the Achilles heel to my diet? I drink 6 glasses of water a day and overall eat a clean diet full of proteins, veges, and fruits. I am not seeing the losses as quick as I would like so analyzing my diet. I have given it up before, but do I really have to?? What does everyone think?

    I think you are watching what you eat but not how much you eat

    They're low sodium so by this logic, if you're watching your sodium you shouldn't eat anything with sodium in it because it doesn't "help."
