That’s right my friends. I am here to warn you of the evils of Diet Coke. It may seem to be a yummy treat .. your friend when you crave something sweet. It lures you in with it’s bubbly goodness, and slight caffeine high. The chocolaty brown color calls to you in the middle of a hectic day promising that all will be OK!
But Diet Coke has a hidden evil!!! EVIL!! And it’s name is …. SODIUM!!!
I didn’t believe the nay sayers in the past .. those who warn that Diet Coke inhibits weight loss. But it is the TRUTH!!! I had a terrible terrible addiction to the sweet elixir. I was drinking up to 8 12 ounce cans a day! But I broke the habit and went down to just 2 sodas a day .. and I lost 2 – 3 pounds a week!!! Then … slowly I started adding back in the soda … and I’m now back up to 6 Diet Cokes a day. And my weight loss has come to a screeching halt!!! I’ve even GAINED .5 pounds this week … after burning off 4,000 calories last week. After cutting my caloric intake to 1500 a day! I STILL GAINED.
The only evil that entered my system last week was DIET COKE!
So … in this month of haunting .. add Diet Coke to the list of demons to excise from your life! Join me in the battle – we will once again hope for weight loss next week.
Burn evil diet coke.. BURN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone have a blow torch??
*ducks and hides* I’m not giving up my Mt Dew. Luckily I need the sodium right?
Hopps – that’s probably the ONLY benefit to having CF! I’m drinking 2 – 3 a day. I’m doing my best to stick to 2 .. but in the afternoon sometimes the addiction gets too strong and I have to have the third one.
