I was addicted to coke, and drank about 3-4 cans per day, with all those funny dangerous ingredients it's just not good for us. I have'nt had a drop of the stuff since Sept'06.
Although it not on the "approved" list - my cdc said it was ok in moderation - i have a can every now and again.
I think the main concern is just that it may wake up your taste buds and make you crave something else but i find you just have to have a bit of variety now and again
Thanks Littlelegs! I just like 1 of the 500ml bottles, so it's good to know I'm within limits! And funniliy enough I've never included it in my water intake, so good to know I was along the right lines!
I have a can or small bottle on the day's I work, it help's me make it to the end of my long day's.
Recently on the pink site there was talk of other zero drink's that we might be able to have in moderation, anyone know the outcome of that?
My 2 year old twins are in bed sleeping so the pressure is off a bit!! Just one more to get to bed now! Wanting to eat desperately but not going to. When I get to this time of the day I think - it's not worth ruining a whole days effort now!
Hi guys - don't want to be a spoilsport, but officially Diet Coke isn't an approved drink because it can knock people out of ketosis. That said some people drink it and are fine with it, so just take it carefully. Bear in mind too that your CD diet is giving your body so much goodness and a diet coke is not exactly a healthy option!
My advise to clients is that if an occasional glass will help you stick to the diet, then so be it, but if you can manage without all the better.
Kangy, yep coke zero, is different to diet coke.
I'm doing ok, glad you made the day,you should be very proud of yourself, well done. AS we seak, I'm trying to make chilli crisps, wish me luck.
Oh thanks Jen I didn't realise there was another acid that did that too! I'm not too carb sensitive (thank goodness) but I will keep an eye and make sure. I think I will use them til I'm off and running and then cut them out.
Penny - never tried the crisps, think I'd destroy them! I'm quite happy with my shakes, though the truffles sound nice so I might give them a go at the weekend.
