diet sodas trick your body into thinking its getting sugar.
you essentially eat twice the volume of food that you would normally eat to compensate for the lack of sugar

Now I have dropped 15 pounds of body water before as well, did it in 3 days. I call it the Katrina Diet. After the hurricane pasted I spent 3 days with not a lot of water, and I sweat my ass off in the sun all 3 days cutting trees to clear the highway so we could get out. At night I sweat my ass of in 90 degree heat with no electricity. I weighed myself 3 days later before I had my first real meal and i had lost 15 pounds. But I gained it right back once i started eating and drinking more regularly and did less out side work got the generators running and ac back on etc.
