    I have to have a diet soda with some meals. It's just a taste thing.

    Strange to see no mention of Pepsi Max (the UK one, not the US one - I believe they're a different formula). I live on the stuff! I have no concerns whatsoever about its impact on weight-loss etc., but I sometimes wonder whether it's bad for my fangs. Regardless, it's (IMHO) head and shoulders above any of the other diet colas I have tried.

    I love Coke Zero because it just tastes like Coke. I don't care for the taste of diet coke.

    I had to stop drinking soda and other fizzy drinks because the carbonation just sits in my chest and hurts so bad. I don't really care for diet coke anyways, but I do crave a diet mountain dew every now and then. I just shake it up till it goes flat, then I can drink it without pain lol.

    I love diet soda! There are a bunch of Sonic restaurants where I live, and they have soooo many diet soda options. My favorite is Sprite Zero with vanilla and blue coconut :) but as far as just the regular ones go, I vote Diet Dr Pepper as the best lol

    I drink a lot of diet/low-cal sodas because I know that, otherwise, I would be drinking the 200cal cans of it. Gotta stick with what you can work with! The sugar isn't good for you, etc, but ehhhh.

    Diet Mt. Dew. :) I need to try this diet vanilla Dr. Pepper everyone talks about. I like Dr. Pepper kinda, but the vanilla sounds like it might just be awesome.

    Coke Zero (with or w/o vanilla), Dr Pepper Ten, Powerade Zero; I like them all. However, I am making sure I still get at least a gallon of water a day.

    They say that diet drinks make you crave sugar more, but since I'm in charge of what goes in my mouth, I will continue to have the occasional diet pepsi.

    Lucozade is mainly sugar, caffeine and water. I dont know how it could possible be "zero" rated. I used 2 sip it in small amt on night shifts. Basically a sugar rush in a bottle. I wont drink it unless im dead tired and i know i cant make.

    Lucozade Zero is 20cal a bottle and about 6gram sugar, so better than the full crap stuff

    Coke zero and cherry coke zero are nectar from the gods ...soooo good.

    Have you tried the Vanilla Zero? It's fantastic, and has become my go to.

    I've seen it but haven't tried it. Will have to pick some up to put in the rotation.

    I've heard that Diet Dr. Pepper is one of the least diet tasting diet sodas, but I can't stand it. LOL. When I switch to diet, oh so long ago, I drank Diet Mt. Dew Code Red. However, it's been so long, I don't even know if they make that anymore. *feeling old* *looks for her walker*

    Oh my goodness. I'm obsessed with Diet Pepsi! Diet Coke tastes like to me compared to Diet Pepsi!!

    I actually have a large enough purse that I always stash a bottle of Diet Pepsi in it along with my water bottle. I figure I better drink water too!

    I actually enjoy a diet ginger ale by a company called C*** & Bull [yes, that's the actual name of the company], though I mainly enjoy it because it's one of the few diet ginger ales out there that has a strong bite to it. Besides those, Diet Canada Dry is also decent, as long as it's ice cold.

    I never really drank soda as a child, teen or young adult but now for some reason I am LOOOOOVING Diet A&W root beer! It tastes like HEAVEN. I feel like a sell out buying 12 packs AND a 2litre at the same time. But so so good.
