Also, ever notice that those who drink "regular" soda seem to drink much less? Like, maybe one or two a day, whereas others really go nuts?
Regardless, I'm trying to stick to water and coffee with just milk in it. Fun times!
I drank diet soda for years. I convinced myself I was "eating light" while in actuality stuffing myself up to 385 pounds, and probably beyond. Drinking diet beverages is a great way to fool yourself.
