    I used to drink tab, Fresca, diet Hansen’s but now I rarely drink them because I find they don’t quench my thirst like water. I do also drink crystal light.

    Yep! All day every day! A&W Diet Root Beer is my go to. (J/K. Not really all day every day, but I'm not opposed to it) Since doing intermittent fasting and Keto, it's calms my sweet tooth cravings. Before someone says something negative about this, my doctor is aware and though not healthy, it is less of a danger in comparison to the weight I've lost.

    I drink over 9 cups of water and I love it, but Diet Pepsi is also a part of my daily food intake: a bit for lunch, and a bit for dinner. I am fully aware it isn't good™ for me, but it feels like a very small indulgence as compared to other calorie-dense foods, and it keeps me sane after struggling with past eating disorders.

    OP, if you are worried about diet pop hindering your weight loss, know that - just as some people have mentioned already - I have never had trouble losing weight while drinking it.

    I drink water or unsweetened ice tea generally, but I will happily indulge in a Coke Zero. I don't like the taste of most sodas, it just tastes "generically sweet", but there's something about Coke Zero I really do enjoy. I'll also mix kombucha with seltzer water for a nice alternative fizz. (I do like the sour zing.)

    Diet A&W is my go to right now as well. Def crushes any sweet cravings I have. Also, pour it into a glass with a little ice and add a tablespoon of heavy cream and mix. Tastes like a melted root beer float! :#

    The fattest friend I ever had drank diet soda all day and night.

    You can't get fat off a (nearly) zero calorie drink.

    Soda isn't crap. There isn't anything in it that is poisonous. The hyperbole is strong in this one.

    *sips my Coke Zero :bigsmile:

    Heh. One of the strongest, most muscle-dense and badass women I know drinks diet soda.

    Hmmm, wazzername . . . Q-something . . . Q-S-something . . . give a li'l ol' lady time . . . I'll think of it . . . . .

    I have always been an avid soda drinker...having switched to diet in the past 2 years. I wish I liked water but I don't so I tend to almost always have a can of diet soda with my meals.

    What does poison taste like and which poisons have you tried?

    Well, I've spent the last few years building up an immunity to iocane powder, but then again it has no odor and no taste.

    Eff I was beaten to it lol.
