[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a diet coke addict. [b]I drink about 5 cans a day.[/b]  I have been able to make the shift to 3 caffeine free cans and 2 "real" cans a day. Ive had this love  affair/ addiction since I was 16 years old. At my best I was able to get down to 2 cans a day (pregnant and nursing) and at my worst I drank upward to 7 or 8.  [b]I know it's a lot of chemicaLs but I am resistant to give it up[/b]. I am slim and fit and have never had a weight problem, although I know many people credit diet soda with weight gain....maybe that will creep up on me? I just love the taste and find it very refreshing and a good way to break up my day.  Anyone quit there pop addiction and really notcie a difference in their health?  If so I would love to hear your inspiring stories!  TIA[/quote]

I have never been addicted to the extent that you are (FIVE cans a DAY?) but I used to drink one a day.  Now I am down to one in a blue moon.  I drink iced tea instead.
