Interesting....since there are no calories in diet sodas, the sodium must have been making you retain a lot of fluid or something.

I very rarely drink soft drinks. Switched to black coffee and whisky/water but as I type this I have some cheap bourbon mixed with Coke Zero in my glass

No. I only have them on rare occasions when I drink certain alcoholic beverages like a Cuba Libre.
I definitely feel much better since I cut them from my daily intake. Gave up beer too. Now when I drink alcohol, it's only bourbon or scotch and water, or wine.
I believe that soft drinks are actually pushed on you at many restaurants with a meal and I had to initially make myself order water or tea instead. Now I don't even miss them.
I agree that fake sugar makes you feel bad.

I know it's zero calorie, but I'm convinced that ingesting a bunch of fake sugar made in a lab isn't good for you

So Mellow Yellow is your favorite kind of coke?

they're proven not to be good for you, but why would you care what anybody else consumes?

I drink about eight or nine diet sodas a day. I'm 68 years old, so when my time comes, I died enjoying the things that made me happy in life. My grandmother died when she was 92 and she was addicted to Coca Cola. Somebody told me that the soft drinks in the old days contained cocaine.

I used to, but I cut way back several months ago. With that and some diet adjustments, I lost 20 lbs.

I’ll have one every now and then, maybe once every month or so going out for lunch. Black coffee and water. Beer and bourbon. Beer is bad for me too but hey, no cokes!

Coffee, water & Bourbon/Rye. In that order. Sometimes I get wild and have a few Miller Lites or GITM’s.

Pry my Dr. Pepper out of my cold dead muscular grasp. You can be in shape and consume stuff you enjoy.

But I’ll be a hypocrite and say that diet soda is poison. Drink the real stuff.
