Diet Drinks

[trickydickyy]

I am doing induction again after being off atkins for a while and want to ask if drinking diet drinks either fizzy (not neceserily coke/pepsi) or the dilut ewith water stuff and can these effect ketosis in any way?

Has anyone also had any problems with soft drinks where weight loss has stopped?

I am not drinking soft drinks all time and tend to drink water with all my meals and also some water in between, though I do have a soft drink every now and then in the day for good measure. (Maybe a litre a day at most)

Any help / advice would be appreciated

Richard.

Re: Diet Drinks

wow, this is a very common problem.
If you are drinking diet soda, skip the aspartame sweetened ones. Of course, the book says to not drink them, but some people (like me) can't give them up.

Drink extra water, sodas are not a substitute for your daily water need.
Count each serving as a carb, and get rid of any with caffeine.
