    I hate it. I used to drink it, but I don't anymore.

    Hell, I don't even drink regular soda most of the time.

    I don't drink pop at all unless it's a coke with rum in it. And I tried getting diet coke to mix with my rum and I'd rather just drink the rum straight.


    Diet Polar Orange Dry + pineapple (or coconut, or pineapple coconut) rum? F Yeah.

    I miss it, there is nothing wrong with it.

    I get bad migraines and when I stopped drinking diet soda with aspartame my headaches decreased. Otherwise I would still be drinking it. Unfortunately anything sweetened with aspartame triggers migraines for me so I have to watch all foods that are artificially sweetened.

    Correlation =\\\= causation.....

    OP: diet soda is my favorite calories of the day!!! Although I do enjoy coffee more.

    I love diet soda, and I think it tastes even better since I've reduced my sugar intake.

    I laugh when I read studies that link obesity with diet soda, then everyone runs around screaming that diet soda makes you fat. I think the more likely reason is people just tend to overeat when they think they're saving so many calories with the diet soda. If you're tracking calories, overeating shouldn't be a problem.
