question about diet rite pop
is there anything in the diet rite pop that could make you stall? i checked the labels before i bought it and i didn't see any aspatame or whatever in it...so i bought it....i know i use to drink it when i did the atkins diet 5 years when i was 15 but i could also get away with alot of stuff then...that i can't now. i know it has splenda in it, so i'd have to watch that but is there anything else?! thanks!!

Re: question about diet rite pop
The only other sweetener it has is acesulfame potassium. Since you're aware of being careful with your Splenda servings, everything else seems alright. I'm not totally sure how acesulfame potassium affects your weight loss though.

Re: question about diet rite pop
You are limited to 3 sweeteners a day. That's 3 - 8 ounce diet rites daily. But having said that, yes, even Splenda stalls some people. Are you drinking your 64 plus ounces of plain water daily? That is a bigger factor for me than the Splenda in the sodas. You may want to post a menu in the review section too, just to see if you are missing something somewhere.JILL

It's not about the results. Its about the process.

Re: question about diet rite pop
I usually drink an 8oz can of diet rite every day since I started. It's been one week and I've lost 10 pounds. I don't think that it has affected my weight loss.
Due to the sweetner, I buy the small 8oz cans just to quench the need for fizz.GW: 165

Re: question about diet rite pop
One of the best things I did was eliminated anything that tasted sweet. Doesn't take long to adjust to it and cravings for something sweet goes away. Plain water,club soda or black coffee is more than enough for me.

Re: question about diet rite pop
You could have an intolerance to one of the ingredients, whether it's Splenda or something else, even though they are "legal" (as much as those chemicals can be called "legal"...). I don't know what the ingredients in Diet Rite are, but citric acid in sodas might also affect ketosis.Originally posted by Rayley View Post"Get action. Seize the moment.

Re: question about diet rite pop
Everything in moderation... personally I found that diet sodas, even Splenda friendly Diet Rite made me stall. Besides, all sodas contain carbon dioxide. I figure since my body works to get rid of CO2, maybe putting more into it isn't such a great idea?
I still drink diet sodas every once in a while, just not every day and certainly never as a replacement for good old H2O.Comment
