    I've noticed that it seems to be a common misconception that diet soda has a bunch of sugar in it. It doesn't. I'm not sure why so many people (and I've seen several posts lately) think diet soda is a sugar bomb. It makes no sense. :o

    Yes you can drink anything that will fit in your calorie goal. You ca even go over if you want, but your rate of loss will slow down.

    Btw your profile picture is a model that I would always see in promotions for Chinese mechandise right now the product being modeled is the necklace.

    I bought items from the merchant before, so I've seen that picture all over the site. Not sure if you know it's a copyrighted image... unless you're claiming to be the model in question... just a little FYI.

    LOL don't kill me this girl thinks I'm using a fake picture???? Come send me the site my girl, I would love to see it

    Yup. I've lost over a hundred pounds so far and I still drink Diet Coke. Not as much as I used to. I drink a ton of water now but I still have it once a day.

    I gave them up...a ton of sodium in diet drinks. I traded in for presidents choice free and clear flavoured water....nothing but potassium in them.

    I enjoy sugar-free drinks in moderation. Just be aware of the caffeine content and acidity level. Drinking diet drinks each day can lead to erosion of the teeth over time. x

    Don't drink Diet Pepsi!

    Look for Pepsi Max. I saw some bottles at the 99 Cent Store recently.

    You can. But, some studies show that people who drink diet drinks tend to overeat other items and that interferes with their progress. It's unclear if the artificial sweetness is involved or if people just over-estimate the number of calories they have 'freed up' to eat other foods.

    Carbonation on its own can have adverse effects on your calcium metabolism if you drink a lot of fizzy things every day.

    Abundance of caution says 'moderation in all things'.

    There's an option under the report button to report copyright violations. Just a little FYI. :smile:

    I actually wanted to know if the Op would claim to be the model in question, but from how silent she is I'm guessing not. This is really awkward...
