Diet Pepsi 1--does it equal three?

[MaxsmamaDebbie]

Am I correct that a 12 oz. can of diet Pepsi 1 (with Splenda) would count as three sweeteners, thus my daily allowance?

According to Chapter 18 of the book, you count each serving of an artificially sweetened food as one of the 3 splenda allotments. I don't drink diet drinks so I don't know how many servings 1 can or bottle contains. So check that out.

Also be sure that your diet drink is not caffeinated. Dr. Atkins said that caffeine might cause blood sugar problems (which in turn can lead to weight loss problems)and that is why caffeinated drinks are not allowed.

i have been led to believe that one can would equal 3 servings - from an email someone sent to diet rite - i would guess the other drinks would be the same.

Thanks! I had one last night with some pork rinds (TOM was starting and salt was all I wanted...).
