Diet coca cola is ok and pepsi as they don't contain sugars. Others though like supermarket home brands are ones to be watched. I have found that sometimes they have a reduced sugar level and label them up as 'diet' but the levels are still ridiculously high and would be enough to make me feel I'll. I have also noted a lot of dilute to taste juice labelled as 'no added sugar' still have very high carbs due to natural sugars. It really is about picking stuff up in the supermarket and studying the labels before putting them in your trolley. Quiet often the 'diet' or 'healthy living' brands have more sugars and carbs than the full fat stuff.Back on the coke thing, I only have the odd glass as with many things nowadays, it's full of all sorts of chemicals and additives and ok in moderation. I drink sparkling water a lot with ice and lemon or a good brand cordial.</blockquote>
