Pepsi max on fast 800!

[Ahhhhhbisto]

How much will drinking pepsi max impact progress?

I know in an ideal world I would go without but am already in the early weeks of quitting smoking and dieting.

I do intend to wean off of it but need to focus more on staying smoke free for the time being.

From what I understand it is not allowed as research has shown that sugar free drinks cause the brain to react as if it were sugar. I can understand your need though! Would black coffee help, alternating with decaff perhaps?

Thanks. Have been trying coffee instead but it doesn't hit the sweet, fizzy spot that I am cravy! Tried fizzy water but the same....ahhhh I have too many bady habbits to break

I have one or two coke zero on fast days, still lose loads. I don’t drink tea or coffee and I need some pleasures.

They may be no good for you but ultimately calorie deficit works to some extent however you do it.

@Ahhhhhbisto try sparkling water with elderflower cordial or peach cordial / your fave flavour and lots of vid

Ice

Thanks. This would usually be my go to when the pepsi intake has gone too high but can't have the sugar on fast 800!

Thank you. Helpful to know it might not be the end of the world for the time being

10 years ago when I did the 500 calorie plan I drank full fat coke (1 can daily) and I still lost 1.5 stone for my wedding. I was really strict on the calories to accommodate it.

I’ve since ditched the full fat for zero - I still limit it but it’s my vice and I’m not giving it up completely. But I can sometimes have 2 on a fast day if I need it, but try to have just 1.
