Drink Diet Shasta Sodas To Trick Ur Body (splenda!)

Members Were Sparked

My body seems to think it ate something when I drink a Diet Shasta since it has splenda in it. So, I drink one when I just want something sweet but I am not really hungry. Then my body seems to get busy burning what I already own on my body since nothing new is in my tummy.

Drinking enough water

I love coffee. So to make sure I drink enough water. I don't allow myself to drink that second cup until I have a bottle of water. I get to enjoy my coffee and still get my required water every day.

MORE INFORMATION:
This works for those that like other drinks too, like diet soda or hot chocolate. 30

Get rid of Diet soda addiction!

Diet soda is nothing but trouble, especially for those of us who become addicted. 234

MORE INFORMATION:
If you quit drinking diet soda and replace it with water and/or tea with no artificial sweetener, you will be amazed at how much easier it is to stick to your diet plan. I lost 5 pounds of bloating the first week I quit diet soda. I was drinking anywhere from 3 to 10 cans of soda a day. Not good!
