What's your favorite diet soda / pop?

Re: What's your favorite diet soda / pop?

For any newbies who may be reading this.

Pop/soda is only really permitted if it is sweetener with Splenda or any other Atkins legal sweetened. Even then it must be counted towards your 3 servings of sweetener a day.

Also, it must be drunk ontop of your water. Its not a water substitute. So you must drink your 64oz of water, plus 8 oz for each further 25lbs you want to lose. And then the soda / pop is on top of that.

I had to point that out to newbies. Others of you that have been following this woe for a while already know that.

Yes, and triple-distilled vodka is not allowed until the alcohol rung of OWL, and even then, only in reasonable, responsibile quantities (*hic*).

Diet 7UP with a splash of s/f cherry syrup and a squeeze of lime. It's my substitute for Sonic's cherry limeade. So good!

I tried a sip of hubby's diet coke today. I gagged!! TOOOOOOO SWEET!!!!! Darn it! I used to LOVE my diet coke. Now I can't stand the over sweet of it.


I also noticed that I can taste the "secret sugar" in other things. For instance a friend gave me a couple of slices of ham for lunch the other day. Yup, sweet. When I went to check the package, sure enough it had sugar in it. Can also taste it in marinades. Has this happened to anyone else?

Ready for this? I'm a caffeine addict and when my DH drinks my second cup of coffee and leaves me only 1/2 cup, I've found it's GREAT chilled, mixed with the same amount of diet cola. I call it Coloffee. Yummmm!!!! Really, try it! The unsweetened coffe cuts the sweetness and adds a great taste.

Food Lion makes a diet cola sweetened with Splenda, every bit as good as Diet Rite. I'm trying to stay away from aspartame in Diet Pepsi, and the Dr. Pepper Cherry Vanillia which I love.


Speaking of Diet Rite, for a yummy treat try the Tangerine mixed with heavy cream -- it's like a liquid Creamsicle. MMmmmmm......

That being said, Rich is right. Newbies please disregard everything in this thread, so you won't pick up our bad habits.

Going to the kitchen now for my Coloffee....
