stupid study. Could it be that people that drink diet sodas think they can eat more stuff? Not necessarily sweets?
Math says if you go from drinking 3 cans of soda a day at 150 calories each to diet soda is a decrease in 50 pounds in a year. FACT. Now if one CHOOSES to be a fat lard ass and eat more because they drink diet sada then it's CHOICE. Not some sweetener "tricking" your brain. It's a CHOICE. If one eats the same diet they WILL lose weight. Math doesn't lie.
I see people order a double quarter pounder with cheese and super-size fries and a diet coke. Well yes they are still going to be fat. Because they CHOOSE to eat to much. If they'd stop drinking deit soda they'd be even fatter because they still order the same crap.
The fact is when "expets" tell you that your only choice is drinking water if you want to lose with then guess what, most people will just keep drinking regular soda. Is that healthier? Nope.
