Diet Soda Adventures
I'm on Joe's diet.
I've drank diet soda for a while now, but I'm branching out and trying different kinds.
I think this is mostly due to slick marketing. Five or six years ago there were really only about 6 or 7 diet soda choices, give or take.
Now there are millions upon millions of diet pop choices. There are now more diet pop choices than there are species of bugs. And as we all know, that standard of measure is fucking huge.
I was at Ralph's the other day and saw Diet Mountain Dew Code Red 12-packs for $3.33...nice very nice.
I rolled the dice and bought a pack. I got home, cracked open the case and opened my first can.
It tastes like cough syrup BEFORE they made cough syrup taste tolerable.
Stay away from the Diet Mountain Dew Code Red, or as the kids are calling it, DMDCR.

I've heard that caffeine in general is bad for a diet. Evidently stimulants make the kidneys work harder which results in dehydration that inhibits the process to metabolize fat cells.
When I lost the most weight on a diet I was probably drinking 3-4 bottles of water just on Friday nights alone.
I've been trying the new flavored waters made with Spenda. I don't seem to get the Neuter-Sweet side-effects (headache or stomach cramps) with this new stuff.

So far I'm down 18 lbs on Joe's diet.
It took 7 weeks to lose that much.
I'm pretty confidant that I'll be able to lose an additional 20-30 by the end of May, especially considering I haven't done a minute of exercise yet.
I'll drink more water when I'm working out.

jones sugar-free black cherry soda is the junk. i had an allergy to sugar alternatives all through my teens and childhood, but apparently it's taken a hike. now i consider myself a connoisseur of the diet sodas.
(p.s., it's brandy.)
