Congrats to myself I guess, today is now 1 week without diet soda or any soda. just water. health benefits I noticed… it’s too early to tell? but I’m saving money as a side bonus
to celebrate I went to carl’s jr and the girl at the kiosk seemed surprised at me ordering water and I heard her ask the manager how to charge it. I’m guessing she charged it as a diet soda
Ty, dna. I did it because of hearing about aspartame. also remember hearing that aspartame may not be as bad as previously thought? you can’t trust the internet because the world loves disinformation
sparkling water… I didn’t even think of that the whole week, sounds good right about now
Congrats. I am shooting for one diet soda or zero sugar gatorade a day. A benchmark that I usually am able to keep. But, I will admit that I crave a second as the day goes on.
i quit diet soda 2 or 3 months ago i think. i didnt have it for a long time. but i used to drink liters a day. now i let myself have one like once a week.
i used to drink lacroix like crazy during hot summers, for someone who almost chugs everything they drink like me, they are good considering no artificial sweeteners or calories, i like carbonation more than sweetness anyways ive thought of getting one of the machines to make regular water or drinks carbonated but i think with the amount id use it those refill tanks would be expensive
Ty everyone, I will count all the posts as congrats. tomorrow I will look for la croix, a drink I have learned is associated with instagram. I have no problem with that
i made super super super strong coffee by soaking a container of coffee grounds in a pitcher of water for like 12 hrs and then straining it. i had like 6 ounces and it felt like 2 or 3 energy drinks haha
I don’t drink much of anything that isn’t still water, but I do sometimes take a diet come, like once a month more or less. Tonight I even dreamt of having a diet coke, I was gifting one that came from a bag of chips I think and apparently, it came with 2 instead, never heard of bag of chips with cans of soda inside but well it was a dream so it tracks.
That being said I eat a ton of artificial sweeteners, they are in my protein powder and other related stuff, mainly sucralose. I have no clue if they are bad for you, everybody has something to say but I’m going to go with live a little with the information I have available.
P.S. When I say diet coke I almost always mean coke zero, if I call it coke zero everybody understands what I’m talking about right? I never do because I’m never sure.
Diet Coke is not the same as Coke Zero. Diet Coke uses an older recipe because it was so popular so they created Coke Zero to taste like modern Coke for people who like the new recipe.
@Mars yes, but I like the taste of diet coke. moreso diet pepsi. taste of coke zero is too rich for me @anon87144867 it sounds like if it feels good then it is bad for us! I lowered my nicotine to 3mg and replace a meal with oatmeal every day. lowered the the wattage of my vape to get less nicotine so I can quit later
