I have so many of the side effects it's not even funny  I wake up AND go to bed with a diet coke...Geez...DIET COKE is even my favorite password to use  Guess I'll change that   |
6 a day is suppose to apply to fruit

-- ok, 6 diet cokes is a lot, can you start by paring it back to 3 or 4?? - I doubt you should go cold turkey. Perhaps replace the soda with water or a favorite 100% juice. V-8 is a great choice - I buy the low sodium - it is very filling. I still think you can change this, a bit at a time. I wonder if you have health problems that are related to drinking so many sodas
