  • Quote: I avoid the aspartame as there seems to be quite a bit of research saying it is bad for you, and at least some research saying it might make it harder to lose weight. There are other low-calorie drinks out there without the aspartame.
    YES. Please avoid the aspartame! Also, not sure I would go over one or two caffeinated beverages each day...like I don't think that 8 diet cokes would count for 8 glasses of water - yes you are getting the "liquid" but lots of other junk as well.

    They do make a Crystal Light with stevia, now...whatever floats your boat. Bottom line - if you need a little "encouragement" to get the water drank, do it. And count it as water.
