Diet Coke is not good for you. :\ I can't stand when people go around telling others to drink it if they're trying to lose weight. It may have less sugar but it's bad for your digestive system because of all the sugar replacements and other crap they put in it. It has absolutely no nutritional value. If you really want to lose weight, water should be your main drink.

Anyway...as for soda replacements...a lot of the time when I'm thinking about going for that can of coke, I'll reach for the seltzer instead. Seltzer is really just carbonated water. It has zero calories. But it feels just like soda when it's going down! It works with me.
Another thing I do sometimes is I mix cool-aid, orange juice, cranerry juice or something like that into the seltzer....but like the person above me said, juice still has a lot of sugar in it.

So really, ice cold water is very good. If the tap water in your neighborhood tastes bad, stock up on the Poland Spring.
