    I have not had a diet drink in about 2 weeks. I'm drinking so much water I don't have room for any more liquids.

    I have a can of Diet Dew 2-3 times a week. Not as much as I was drinking 8 months ago, but something I am not ready to give up. And I am happy to say I almost released 100 lbs.

    I drink maybe one in the morning and water the rest of the day.

    Yes, I would rather have artificial sweetner than real sugar. Sorry.

    I slowly weened myself away from them as well. Went from fully leaded, to diet, to water. Now I have water within reach at all times.
    In fact, my filtered pitcher is low...brb :)

    I drink anywhere between 2 and 3 liters of water a day but in work I cannot avoid drinking 20 oz of diet dew in the afternoon. I don't like coffee! I used to drink a lot of diet soda before I picked up the water habit a few months ago.

    Drink Diet Coke everyday!!! 82 pounds down in total.
    Now I did cut back from 8-10 cans a day to 2-3.

    Everything in moderation! I am finding that I go to water more now but I still love my diet coke!

    Just like I love my beer! Not giving it up!

    You are changing your lifestyle...don't think of it as a diet....the word die is in diet! I beleive you still need to enjoy things! Just remember portion control or moderation!!!!!!

    I drink Diet Pepsi, if I completely did away with caffeine then I'd have to find out how many calories you burn strangling people.

    I only drink it when I crave it, or when for example I go to the movies-I always crave something sweet-so instead of popcorn I get a giant diet coke-or when I really really don't feel satisfied and I'm done with calories for the day. I rarely drink it but if i must to stay under calories I do.

    Diet Dr. Pepper. 1-3 per day when it goes on sale, until what I bought is gone. It recently went on sale (a great sale) and I have a TON at home. Nummers!

    edit to add: I can't stand regular soda... it has a metal-ish taste to it that is just Ick!

    I agree. Diet soda is toxic. You shouldn't be drinking it if you can help it.

    I know how bad it is for me and still choose to have 1 a day, unfortunately it is my vice! I don't drink or smoke, does that make up for it?:smile:

    I would live off diet coke if that were possible.

    I also like aspartame better than real sugar :D

    Whatever! I'm still losing weight.

    I drink diet coke almost every day....it's my filthy dirty habit...but it keeps me sane. I don't drink coffee, tea or anything else other than water, diet coke.....oh and the occasional vodka and soda water! Down 20lbs...and I am not too worried about what is in it!

    I Do...!! i really try not to, but if im going out to eat at a resturant or just want something with a little flavor to drink. I think Powerade Zero or Vitamin Water Zero is good as a subsitute :)

    I have not had a diet drink in about 2 weeks. I'm drinking so much water I don't have room for any more liquids.

    I agree - who has the time for MORE bathroom breaks....however I do love my Diet Coke and will never be able to give it up completely. I do have the odd one but not nearly as many as before. I find it satisfies a craving and makes me feel fuller than just regular water.

    I've never been a big soda drinker but occasionally if I'm having a "hungry day" I'll drink a can of diet root beer in the demon afternoon hours and it helps. My mantra-most things in moderation are O.K.!

    I have to drink Diet soda... it's like my coffee. Everyone says it's SO bad for you (and it probably is), but I can't give it up. Not yet anyway...
