Is diet coke really worth giving up?!
For now it just seems to "distract" me from other sugar loaded stuff,
Answers:
Artificial sweeteners weill NOT help you lose weight. They are made of chemicals that confuse your body, and mess with your hormones, which will more likely cause weight gain in the long run. They are a passable occasional solution if you are diabetic, but if you are not, don't put them in your body at all!
Best bet is to cut back the amount of sugar you consume regularly, and your taste bugs will adjust so things seem sweeter then they are. Alternatively, switch to unprocessed sugars like raw, cane, honey, agave etc. which take a little longer for your body to process, so they don't spike your blood sugar as much.
As for drinks, there are some carbonated fruit juices on the market that have no added sugar and are really great. You can also make them yourself by mixing 100% juice concentrate with carbonated water.
Making these changes has really helped me, and I hope they help you too!

if you're going to give it up to lose weight just go to water.
it's gonna feel really hard but that's what drugs do.
caffeine, the most addicting drug and commonly used one.
and also a primary reason for obesity
aspartame is pretty much poison. Just google what it is made of.
Here is an article I just came across for a small example
