My cut has begun and I'm drinking like 4 pints of diet coke a day to help with my appetite, what do you guys think of the conspiracy theories about diet soda and asparatamine? Should I stop? lol
-
My best friend used to drink between 4-6 pints of diet coke a day and he died.
in a car crash?
-
No, he got shot.
Because he was drinking to much diet cola?
-
LOL. Can't wait to see the product of this "cut"

Artificial Sweeteners like Aspartame=poison.

Thank you.
I cannot wait to see his transformation.

Maybe you should grow some actual muscle before your cut, but what do I know...
-
I knew a Master Gunnery Sergeant when I was in the Marines who would drink a 12 pack of diet coke every day.

I've gotten plenty shredded drinking lots of Diet Coke or crystal lite with aspartame. Calories matter not all that bro science. Just cut it out a week before.

Prepare to have your mind blown bro.
Are you really that fucking stupid and unwilling to do even the most basic of research?
Calm down Gloria... ::)

You're a genuinely unintelligent, thick-headed, simple minded son of a bitch.
You haven't been on this forum very long have you "FroZZor". Until you post a picture of yourself then I will take it that my 8 year old picture is superior to your current state.

I do not drink coffee or tea so I hit the drive through every morning on my way to my office for a fountain Diet Coke. I also buy the 6 pack 8 ounce bottles which are $5 a 6 pack and I take one to bed every night. I cannot do without either one. Sad but true.

Isn't taking an 8 oz bottle in bed every night kinda hard on the anus?

I learned not to break the bottle off at the neck on the nightstand before sliding it in. That helped a ton.

I drink over a 12 pack of diet soda a day and have for well over a decade.
You will be fine.

Youre going to wind up with a lot of diseases.

I rarely drink soda. When I do it's got to have real sugar.
Some of the artificial sweeteners don't agree with my system.

Agreed. If you want a Diet Coke, have one or three.

-
Soft drinks are for kids, grow the fuck up

I used to be hooked on that sort of shit, especially diet Fanta orange soda, even having it at every meal, even breakfast. Diet ginger ale, diet coke, diet grape and orange sodas, Sprite, all that garbage. I've always eaten good, but have finally managed to break free from some things I was hooked on, namely coffee and the added sugar to it and the diet sodas.
I don't KNOW if the aspartame is actually carcinogenic, but I no longer wish to have all sorts of garbage in me anymore, particularly ingredients I do not know of.

Finally, we now have proof that diet soda leads to mental illness. :D
-
Every soda is poison tho.
I try to drink more pure, filtered water now and have cut back on the diet soda.
BUT, in the scheme of health risks, diet soda is quite low. For example:
I was drinking a diet coke, at the gym juice bar after the workout.
A national Hvy wt competitor gym bro , told me ; " Damn , I'd never put that poison in my body."
I quietly chuckled and replied ; " You're a walking pharmacy , but you're deeply concerned on the health risks of diet soda ?"
Undaunted, he then replied ; " Yeah, but those drugs BUILD up my body, diet soda will tear it down."
I shook my head , chuckled quietly again and simply replied ; " I can't argue with that logic, but, I'll take my chances." I resumed sipping my drink and he walked away feeling like he'd made his point.

Some would rely on the axiom, moderation in all things. To that one should add, "except things that will kill you."
Having consumed more than a gallon a day of Diet Coke for months at a time I can say this. I am still alive. I do notice that my bones and joints tend to hurt more when I do this and I compensate by cutting back or stopping altogether the Diet Coke and drinking more milk. if it is broscience to do so I don't mind as milk does indeed make me feel better physically and caffeine can be gotten from other sources. I do drink a Monster type drink once or twice a day. Their cost keeps me in check. ;D

And now we have proof it causes brain damage, a spike in estrogen levels, and weight gain

You can live until 80 drinking water or live until 75 drinking Diet Coke. I'd prefer the diet Coke.

most people cut down from having achieved muscle mass, but it is interesting to see that you are taking the dj181 approach. Please don't keep Getbig updated about your progress.

No, he got shot.
Probably some aspartame junkie. :(

My experience...
I have probably gone through 2 liters of Diet Coke daily for the last 3 years.
I've researched all the ingredients of Diet Coke extensively, both as single agents and also as combined with each other within the drink.
The only detrimental effect that I found from consuming Diet Coke comes from the active ingredient Phosphoric Acid.
The findings from a study conducted in 2003 (see link below) suggest that:
"When phosphoric acid comes packaged with other nutrients, it's absorbed normally and everything is in balance. We think the problem with cola is that you're getting those doses of phosphoric acid without any calcium. It's not balanced, and that extra phosphorus binds with calcium and prevents it from being absorbed"
Study can be found here:
http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/461898 (http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/461898)
Just to gauge how bad the effects were on me, I had bone density scans done over a 2 year period. Keeping in mind that I take a daily multivitamin and generously dose with Vitamin D and Calcium supplements, while working out 3-5 times per week, my bone density scans showed MARGINAL decreases in overall bone density. These decreases, as per my primary care doctor, did not place me at a substantially higher risk for fractures. Had I not kept a steady supplementation regimen, coupled with my workouts, maybe things would be different.
As a result of my findings, I continue to consume large amounts of Diet Coke daily.

So then, did your bones and/or joints ache at all? That is my experience in drinking as I said gallons of the stuff throughout the day/week.
Thanks!
-
I'm going to cut it down after the end of my diet, this shit can't be good it feels unnatural and harsh on the stomach. My teeth have been reported recently as perfect by the dentist though.

Flavored water is all, bottoms up.
Unless you're a lab rat.

Yes. I still find that they ache a bit (joints), but it's hard to tell whether that's solely from the Diet Coke consumption or whether my age (50+) has something to do with it.
I'd love to never drink soda, but unfortunately, I am not huge fan of water.

For me it is age but heavily accented by my consumption of Diet Coke. When I stop drinking it I feel better after about a week or so especially if I drink some milk. Weird. I am nearer and nearer to 60 so that's probably the real culprit although I don't really hurt as much if it is regular Coca Cola. Dammit!

Coke or milk.., if you care about your health, you shouldn't drink both of them.

I only drink a quart or so a day now and when the container is empty it's a few days before I can get to the store again.
I'm lazy. ;D
I have done that college bet where you drink a gallon of milk in under an hour without barfing it up with relative ease. I'm fat too. ;D

My brother quit a major DC habit - twelve a day, easy. Stopped for quite a while, said his joint aches and pains magically disappeared.
Saw him a few months later with one in his hand, he said, "Eh, it still hurt, bro, just wanted to believe it was working." Probably up to a case by now.

A case, huh? PRs for me are in the gallons range for pop a day and a couple years ago on a trip to my older brother's home in Oregon I consumed 15 Monsters on a day ride north. I was, how shall I put this...really AWAKE! ;D
Caffeine pig here. I quit every once in a while too. Headaches for weeks, LOL!

A quart isn't that much, but I bet that Vince Gironda would have slapped you in the face for this, unless it's the raw version.

When it gets warmer, I will try to stop for a month and see how I feel.

That's now. When I was young I drank up to three gallons a day. I like ice cold milk so it was never a problem. Except affording it. ;D Yeah, Vince would slap me stupid as I could never afford "raw milk'. I took to drinking half and half and then whipping cream for the calories.

With that amount of caffeine, yeah, I can imagine. DC really doesn't have all that much, not nearly as much as those energy drinks or coffee, especially Starbucks (for whatever reason).
I'd once swapped a long 6-8 cans a day deal for water, just refilling liter bottles to stave off hunger between meals while dieting. Because I was ALWAYS full of water, I unintentionally quit the Cokes, really. Wasn't stopping for Big Gulps anymore and not a can in the fridge. Don't recall even a single withdrawal headache.
Coffee, though, different story. Didn't even know I was addicted until L.A. County graciously invited me to a 30-day, caffeine-free sleepover at a wonderfully diverse facility known locally as "Twin Towers." Had a concussion-type migraine for at least two days.
Good times.
