Drink water, or at least drink a sports drink like Gatorade since it replaces minerals you lose when you sweat.

It basically just has less calories and fat and stuff, but it still has some.

Diet coke is simply a drink that tastes similar to normal coke, without calories/sugar... It's not made for dieting or anything, just enjoyment.

diet soda can actually jeperdize your dieting goal. if you eat other healthy stuff, then diet coke will help you, as long as your metabolism is ready for it. does this help?

Not for weight loss - recent studies show quite the opposite, in fact: "There was a 41 percent increase in risk of being overweight for every can or bottle of diet soft drink a person consumes each day." See the links below for more ... I'm sticking to water! :-)

it's bad for you... it bloats your stomach and makes you want to eat more.

Was this answer helpful to you?  Yes  /  No



curiousity <3
work for....?

diet coke keeps to temporarily full, if that's what you mean, but it also makes you bloated and has been accused of increasing your sugar cravings, which may cause you to binge later on. stick to lots of water instead. a diet coke is ok to have once in a while, but keep it to maybe two a week.

I don't know what you mean by "does it really work"? In general diet coke or diet drink is a another option to drink and not consume any calories or sugar than regular sodas. Diet soda do not help you to lose weight, but it can help you maintain your weight.

no... sodas diet or not are one of the worst things..

on the news and my doctor said that if you dont drink a soda at all for a year you will NOT gain 15 pounds like you would if you did... sorry thats kinda confusing... there is so much sugar that you can gain a lot of weight... if you like the caffeine, drink coffee and tea which is better for you.
try to stay away from soda completely though... it is hard but will benefit you

I'm assuming that you are asking "does diet coke really help you diet?" The answer is no. You see, the "diet" part makes you think that you're drinking something healthy/low fat, so you begin to associate "soda" with "healthy", which is not true. In fact, the only good thing that I can see that you would get from drinking the stuff, is that it does not contain high fructose corn syrup and is caffeine free.

Diet drinks do not help people lose weight. They have chemicals that actually make you hungrier, besides, you don't want to put that cr&p in your body. Try Tea or water.
