I can lose the diet soda easily. I find that when I do drink it, I want more and more, so it is best if I just do without. I also limit my coffe to only 2 cups in the morning instead of the usual 4 or 5 that I was drinking.

I need to drink more water; however, I find that if I drink it using a straw that I do better. Kinda weird, but ?

Oh...I use a straw too for sure. I don't like water too much so it goes down much faster with a straw. I thought I'd have to have the water very frigid too to get it down but I went somewhere, came back, ice cubes were gone, thought I'll drink it anyway and drank 14 oz. of water (with a straw, of course) in one fell swoop. So, now my water just has a few ice cubes and a straw.

I got a cool idea from the diet cherry vanilla dr p, add flavoring to regular soda! It's pretty good!

I don't drink diet soda at all. If I drink it, it makes me crave sugar! I drink tons of water daily. I find most diet sodas taste like ca-ca anyway IMO so it's not hard for me to stay away.

Ive never drank much soda in my life,but since Ive been lo carbing I have started to drink 1 or 2 cans diet pepsi a day.

It seems to delay my hunger,and I like the caffeine rush.
As well as it satisfies my occasional craving for sweets.

I don't drink any soda at all since LCing. I do drink coffee though but it's decaf. I was also just turned onto green tea. I drink it hot and I also buy the Arizona Diet Green Tea. I think it's sweetened with splenda.

I have a pop once in a while. I'm trying to get used to water so I haven't been drinking much pop at all... I'd say MAYBE 1 a week. I used to drink a 2 liter and a half of coke... so it's a huge change for me, but I'm happier.

I am a diet Pepsi addict. I need to give it up soley because of the fact I have bad anxiety and the caffeine is not good for that. I'm not sure how it will affect my weight loss because I haven't been on atkins long enough.

........"diet soda in their diets".......?..............

I usally have one can (diet coke) a day - wait for me in the frige and time to time when I home - I take a sip or 2......but the most - I love having a few sip (cannot finshes whole one) in my early AM in emptey stomack before my exersice.....(its help burn fat ) (?)....:-)))))

........ooooppppsss........sorry.

I drink diet soda only once in a while, and only if I drank all of my water for the day. Well, that's if I'm home. If I'm out, I'll usually order water, but once in a while, I want that diet soda!

i am still in "induction" and drink caffine free diet coke more now than before......i think it gets rid of cravings....whenever i want one of my kids yummy snacks, i grab a diet coke and find it does the trick.

It is a staple for me but I'm trying to cut down on it.

If you can find it, Canfields Diet Chocolate Soda, or Diet Chocolate Cherry Soda is awesome. Totally takes care of the chocolate cravings. I haven't been able to find it here on the West Coast, but it's prevalent in Chicagoland and I found it on the east coast at Stop and Go.

1 Diet Coke every morning (I don't drink coffee), and water the rest of the time. If I'm craving carbonation, I'll have a fizzy water drink like Perrier.
