i'm addicted to diet coke!
I drink it from the bottle-when no one's looking and,when i'm running low, I have to ring hubbie to go to Morrison's on the way home to get me more!

I am addicted to diet coke too! Wish it was just the coke though, & that I didn't like it mixed with bacardi so much!!

scarymaryme · 11/10/2006 13:20

Oh god I'm the same...I pannick if I run out!! I'll drink pepsi at a push but it isn't as nice. I tried coke zero, which is ok too it is a bit tastier than the normal diet coke..... oh god I'm so sad!!!!!

No, it has to be proper diet coke, pepsi just doesn't taste as good!

scarymaryme · 11/10/2006 13:25

there is a bloke on the telly tonight who drinks about 4 litres of coke a day...I'm not quite that bad but it must be the caffeine...or sugar???

I have tried buying caffeine free diet coke, but I seem to drink just as much of it!
Don't like full sugar coke though.

another addict in this house too! its the only thing that makes a hard day seem better so i'd always thought it was more psychological, but maybe not then.... and i really prefer the full fat version, as the diet stuff makes me feel really jittery, very odd indeed.

KellyKrueger1978 · 11/10/2006 13:29

Cola is one of my vices. I could easily drink 2l a day if I didn't control myself! I read somewhere recently though that it is bad for woman, can increase the risk of osteoporosis so I should quit!

Tiasmummy · 11/10/2006 13:30

What channel is the prog coming on? Anyone know?

AnAngelWithin · 11/10/2006 13:31

Pinkchampagne · 11/10/2006 13:32

jessicaandrebeccasmummy · 11/10/2006 13:36

Diet coke or coke zero all the way here - i can literally drink it ALL day. Been good and not had any for a few days - until it was buy one get one free in my local shop today - half a 2ltr bottle gone already!

CheesyFeetcomingtoGETyou · 11/10/2006 13:38

I am totally addicted to diet coke

It's dh's fault, I wasn't bothered until we got together

Diet coke can still rot your teeth - it's very acidic - and all the aspartame can't be good for you either. I still drink about a litre a day though

scarymaryme · 11/10/2006 13:49

ahhhh can't find when its on....will ask dh...
