Hello all - My name is Linda - not really sure which last name to use anymore legally Stacey but prefer Fisher and I am a diet coke addict.
This morning I planned my family's breakfast around how I could sneak in a diet coke. I felt ashamed and eventually just had the diet coke out in the open but I know what my kids were thinking. "She is hitting that dang soda again - why can't she give it up - I mean why does it mean so much?"
LOL when Patrick developed kidney stones this fall we stopped buying sodas and bringing them into the house. We drink water, tea, crystal light, Koolaid, milk, OJ with meals and in between. Much easier on his kidneys. I thought I could give up the diet coke. I really really did.
It is not the caffeine. When they pulled the coke machines at work a couple of years ago and replaced them with Pepsi machines I switched to Coffee in the morning. And I like coffee. But there are some mornings and some days where I would kill for a diet coke. More often than I would like to admit lol.
I think there is something in diet coke that is completely addictive besides the caffeine. Maybe an investigative reporter or scientist should check it out LOL

Sugar, but less than non-diet coke
