this has been discussed recently - try using the serach engine 'fitbuddy' at the bottom of the screen and entering diet soda, there were some posts about it recently.

I am of the opinion that it is the lesser of two evils, I like my diet soda!

Is drinking diet soda really that bad, if it is the only kind of treat I am having on a day-to-day basis?

I agree with asimmer, I hate all the yuck ingredients, but I like to have one or two a week and since I quit the real stuff, the diet hasn't been that bad now, at first I'd about gag and it left me feeling a bit yuck, but now my body is getting used to the stuff I probably don't want to know any more about than I already do, lol!

I drink about one a day, because I am ridiculously addicted to caffeine and can't seem to bring myself to just stop. I don't think it hinders me too much, I try to have it pretty early in the day, like my apples.
