What is it about soda anyway. I find that if i drink caffene free diet coke (basically colored water with CO2, right?) I do not lose as well as when i drink only water and and maybe unsweetend tea. I am starting to think that the sugar substitues they use do not really help any. Says 0 calories though.

I also know that in sports... sodas are a big no no,diet or not, but have no idea why the diet ones are not OK.

I need to get back on this too. My wife and I tried a national weight loss system earlier this year. I won't mention Nutrisystem's name, but we stopped it when we saw some of the same snacks they provide in Petsmart. I am not kidding here either. Looked the same and had the same ingredients, but differnt packaging, slightly different. ewe!

Will weigh myself this morning and set a goal. Thanks for brining this up.
