Re: Anyone else addicted to diet soda?

Yes, but I am in recovery. Chat Icon

I usually give it up, along with ice cream, for Lent...which curbs the addiction and I am good until the summer barbeques..

But I'm trying to really cut back and not have it at all, because I can feel a difference in my weight, my energy level, etc, if I don't have it.

Re: Anyone else addicted to diet soda?

I maybe have it 2-3x a week. I prefer Coke Zero taste-wise. But I really don't care for soda all that much.

Re: Anyone else addicted to diet soda?

I am addicted as well!

I am like you, I dont do coffee so soda is my "vice"

But during this pregnancy I had to cut cold turkey in tri-1 because it made me feel HORRIBLE!

Now I can have a can a day but more than that and I am back to feeling sick all day!

I dont have any advice but if you drink it a few times a day cut back slowly. My brother had caffeine withdrawl!

Re: Anyone else addicted to diet soda?

I actually hate diet soda. I can't stand the taste of it. And after I heard that diet soda weakens women's bone density, I definitely won't drink it now.

I drink so much diet pepsi. If I stay away from it I'm okay and can go without, but the second I take a sip I'm done. I buy a bottle and easily drink half of the 2 liter in a day.

Is diet snapple as bad as diet soda?





I would say yes b/c the worst part about the drinks are the artificial sweetners (i.e. stevia, aspartame, sucralose, neotame, acesulfame potassium, and saccharin.)

I have never had a full drink of diet soda. I prefer my soda to be the real thing Chat Icon and I only have it when the Chinese food sends it for free LOL

I will start to twitch if im getting low on diet coke. So, yeah im an addict.



I am the same way with diet pepsi. Once I open the last bottle in the house, I am in "a soda state of emergency" Chat Icon

Diet pepsi is almost all I drink - morning, noon & night. I try to make sure I drink some water each day, but I don't always. Chat Icon



Same here, i love Diet Pepsi, i have been trying to be good about how much i tried and been drinking more flavored water, i thyink im more addicted to the carbonation than anything.


What is Lent? I saw a few posts about it...

Re: Anyone else addicted to diet soda?

i hate diet. i do, rarely, enjoy regular. but that's rare - usually i drink water. it's just so bad for you.

and if i'm going to sacrifice calories - i'd rather eat them, than drink them.

For the 40 days before Easter (starting on Ash Wednesday) Catholics typically give up something as their way of cleansing. It is a way to suffer internally. Fat Tuesday (Mardi Gras) always happens the day before Ash Wednesday. On that day people stuff themselves silly with lots of food and alcohol.
