a big NO NO!

It knocks you right outta ketosis. I was two weeks into a solid keto diet, approaching contest condition.

I needed something to kill the sugar cravings so downed a Diet Dr Pepper. Things went south... fast

My muscles flatened out immediately and a film of water enveloped my physique. My strength also nosedived and I lost some size on my arms and calves

Never had a problem with drinking diet drinks and staying in ketosis.

There's absolutely no reason why a diet soda would kick you out of ketosis!  There's no nutritional value to it, therefore it would have no effect on blood glucose levels, thus your state of ketosis would not be effected.

You know what goes good with Diet Dr. Pepper?  Chick-fil-A Chicken Nuggets!

I'm pretty sure they use Splenda in Diet Dr. Pepper, not aspartame (Equal).

No they don't, its still aspartame - just about all diet soda uses aspartame still.

You're  right, WH4. I went to their website. It is still aspartame in there diet soda.

I know there are some with Splenda though. Just can't remember. Weight Watcher's Diet Soda maybe? ???
