    My beverage of choice is San Pellegrino, it qualifies ad a diet, no calorie, beverage.

    As in the plain (but good) mineral water?

    I do not. I have a medical condition that is food sensitive and artificial sweeteners are a trigger for me (I have tested this personally and they are a known possible issues for my specific issues).

    I drink mostly water, tea (iced and hot), and Bubly sparkling water.

    I've never been much of a soda drinker, but having said that when I did drink one is was always diet. I drank diet sodas from high school well into middle-adulthood. At my peak soda drinking phase I went through 1-2 cases a month. About 5 years ago, I switched from diet to regular. No regrets. I don't remember the last time I had one--more than 3 months ago. I made the switch because I drink them so infrequently that I figured the better taste of regular sodas was worth the calories. I drink mostly water, coffee, and alcohol a few nights a week.

    I’ve never liked the taste of diet soda and it upset my stomach. I substituted sparkling water in place soda.

    I like diet soda, but I think it leaves me with dry mouth and I prefer sucralose as a sweetener. I'm often making iced tea or lemonade with sucralose instead, but when I'm out I drink diet all the time.

    I love my Diet Coke. I also drink unsweetened tea and water. I don’t like to drink anything sweet which is why I can’t stand regular pop or pop that’s sweetened with Stevia or sucrolose, just too sweet tasting. It’s also my caffeine fix as I don’t drink coffee.

    I drink plenty of water but you can pry my Diet Pepsi from my cold, dead hands 🤣 I’ve never had any problems with my weight loss drinking it.

    I prefer a good, strong cup of espresso with some sweetener sometimes during the day for my "pick me up".

    I read a summary of a study once that said that even sparkling water increased appetite in some people as well as diet soda. Apparently, it isn't the diet soda, it's the carbonation. This doesn't seem to apply to everyone. Wish I had a link, it was interesting.

    I highly recommend y’all give Zevia a try.

    All flavors are zero calorie, some have caffeine if you want that. And none have artificial colors.

    I discovered it when I was looking for a non calorie grape soda.

    The only downside, it’s pretty expensive compared to regular pop. But when on sale, 67 cents per can.
