How would a zero calorie beverage have any impact on weight management?
I drink one or two Fresca's daily.6 -

I never stopped, but I lost weight just as expected while drinking diet soda regularly. In fact, I found it easier to stick to my calorie goal replacing beverages that had calories and boredom snacking with diet soda.8

No but I think it can possibly trigger sugar cravings, as there is some science to support that. I however have Coke Zero or Diet Coke when I have a sugar craving and it actually helps satisfy them.13

You can have my 0 calorie caffeine from my cold dead fingers.... although the more likely case is your cold dead fingers... not a threat...5

Nope.
I actually find that diet soda makes it easier for me to stay in a deficit because drinking one in the afternoon will satisfy my sweet tooth and help control my hunger.6 -

No of course not.1

Nope, actually really helped with my sugar cravings and cut out a ton of calories I would've spent guzzling regular sodas.4

It's difficult for the brain to tell the difference between sweeteners and sugar so it triggers the body to behave in similar manner so can cause hunger sensation earlier.31 -

Never experienced any such thing...
If anything, the carbonation makes me feel full...
But also, sugar doesn't cause me hunger sensations either...being hungry causes me hunger sensations.16 -

There are a few studies that allude to artificial sweetener triggering sweet cravings in individuals, but it's painting with pretty broad strokes to say that everyone experiences this. I find the opposite is true, for me, and apparently so do several other previous posters.

What does the bold actually mean?
There are no calories to use or store so how exactly is your body behaving in a similar way?
(Taste doesn't stimulate insulin production for example, hence why diabetic associations recommend them.)
I could see that if people habitually eat or drink sweet tasting things they may have more of a sweet tooth or taste preference but then they would have to eat more calories to have an impact.
Bearing in mind we are on what is predominately a calorie counting website....3 -
