Depending on how one reads the headline, it could be suggesting that “women” are not “people”?!

Nothing new to anyone in the weight loss business. Or to anyone who tried to diet using Diet Coke as a substitute for sweets. Maybe news to NPR but that’s no surprise.

I’ve often smirk and shaken my in disbelief at all the “extra large” women I see eating Super Sized McDonalds value meals accompanied by a 44 Oz. Diet Coke.

The same thought always goes through my head: What the hell is the point?

Hmmm...

I lost 50 lbs over last 7 months. Stopped the diet Mt. Dew.

Twice I started drinking it again and wham the cravings for junk food and sweets roared back.

Pure poison. Also noticed when I drank it again the joint pain and lethargic feeling came back overnight

Did you ever meet an obese person who didn’t drink diet soda?

Neither have I.

I can’t drink any soda EXCEPT the ‘diet’ ones. The others are too sticky-sweet.
