what about flavored soda water?

[roger_27]

i bought this stuff.. Sunny Select Fruit Fiz..., 0 calories, 0 fat, 0 sodium 0 carbs, 0 protien.... its black cherry flavored.. i am so sick of unsweetened ice tea. will this stuff be okay for me? i can post the ingredients if youd like....... the only thing i dont recognize is Aspartame and Potassium Bonzoate... thanks

somewhere in the atkins book it says aspartame is not good for you(even though its sugar free). that is why i stay to one or two diet cokes a week.

we should look for diet soda's or carbonated water that contains splenda or anything that ends with 'ose.. like sucralose, maltose, etc.

I drink crystal light. I was an avid soda drinker (8+ a day) The taste of crystal light is very good and there are many diffrent flavors. Its made with splenda so its not as bad as some of the others out there. I drink alot of it and the pounds still keep comeing off very rapidly so I don't think theres any weight side effects.

Gotta remember, too, that you're limited to 3 servings of sweetner a day. That's it.

Read the label on your bottle and double check the serving size. 1 bottle doesn't necessarily = 1 serving.

Also, don't count it towards your water for the day. This should be above and beyond that.
