sodas are bad umkay!?!?

diet regular is doesn't matter. it isn't real food. it is chemicals, and things like aspertame and sucralose actually inhibit the breadown of fats into usable energy, and convert to dangerous chemicals in our system.

it has been a belief of mine that since the introduction of diet soda, more people have developed things like restless leg syndrome and fibromialgia.(sp?)
as well as the "rationalization" that if i eat a big fatty burger/fry meal, the Diet Coke will cancel out the bad stuff........



that being said, i do enjoy a nice ice cold soda, but i have weaned myself off diet mostly. drink the occasional energy drink, or "leaded" soda (reg)

the less i drink, the more i realize how yuck i feel when i do. same with wheat and potatoes and other high carb stuff. i like it when i am eating it cause it tastes good, but no sooner than it hits bottom, i am bloaty and miserable.
will i ever learn?
