Diet Soda VS Water

[elpatron]

Is there really any real issue with consuming diet sodas as your primary source of fluids? I have a hard time drinking water - anyone else like me?

I personally wouldn’t want to drink a 1ltr+ of diet soda. A lot of sodium still and all that carbonation would have me bloated. I just toss a scoop of aminos in my litre of water just for flavour.

Stay off the diet sodas bro. Add the aminos to your water to get the sweet hit. I probably have 1 can of coke zero a day if that.

The last comp prep I did I heavily relied on diet sodas, the last two weeks or so I probably drank a 2L of coke zero a day. I’m not proud of it but it helps when things get tough. My biggest concern was never the aspartame but rather the acidity of the the soda. I don’t think it was great for my gut. Just my two cents though.

Not only your gut but it’s awful on your teeth!

Some days I was literally drinking 8 - 10 cans. I should mention I had the worst throbbing headaches following quitting. Today is day 3 or 4 and the first day that I haven’t had any yet... not sure if it’s related but seems awfully coincidental considering I rarely ever get headaches and now all of a suddenly I’m getting them daily... so that’s been an eye opener.

Probably from the caffeine withdrawals..I was pounding Monster energy drinks and cut right down to next to nothing..
