If you are on induction, I would not recommend drinking Diet Coke. It stops you from drinking more water, and water not Coke is what your body needs.

But to answer your question, the safe way to go is to count 1 serving of sweetener per 8 oz. Just keep in mind that you are allowed to have max. 3 servings per day.

Re: Diet Coke

I drink diet pop, but is does slow my weight loss down. But, I figure that if I am here for the long haul, and I am, that I will splurge with something like that rather than the tons of other options that are worse, but it definately slow me down.

Diet Soda's make me stall, but if they dont make 'you' stall and you are going to drink them then yes, Count 1 carb per soda.

Re: Diet Coke

No, no carbs but you do have to count the sweeteners. Usually a serving is 8 ounces and a diet coke is 12 ounces so that would be 1 1/2 sweeteners. You do have to count the carbs in granular sweetener though because there are fillers added to those but I dont count the carbs in soda or sugar free davinci syrup etc..

Re: Diet Coke

Is Diet Rite the only soda sweetened with Splenda? I can't find any other, and I'm not wild about the taste. Every other soda I've found uses aspartame :P

Re: Diet Coke

Hey well i am from England so we don't have Diet Rite i don't think...also does any1 know how many mls are in an ounce...a can of coke has 330 mls but don't have a clue about oz...guess i could google it!

Thanks for help! I have been drinking it all week and am still losing so hopefully it aint stalling me! I only have 1 or 2 cans a day anyway so not excessive, i am gonna switch to sparking water anyway which is my first love!

Thanks for all the advice!
