Coke zero!

[lumpyandbumpy]

Can anyone tell me, how much we can get away with having in a day, and can it count towards our fluid intake??<BR><BR>i've started having a small glass a day with my evening mousse to try and bring some normality to my evening 'meal' as water really is not my thing, although i make sure i have 3 litres a day! i really struggle with water so having the coke zero is a nice treat but recently i've wanted to have some more, maybe coz i'm due on next week so craving that sort of taste but just wondering how much is too much really?

I read on slim and save some people have two a day I've had my first this weekend didn't do weight loss any harm and still in ketosis

I drink about 3 or 4 cans per day, and i am still doing fine x

I can get away with quiet a bit.BUT I do think it makes weight loss slower :-(

[maro11]

I have had a glass on two separate occasions when I felt desperate for something, weight loss OK so far

It's not on the list...

Im on ss+ think I am lucky to get away with it, before cd I was on two litre so I have cut way down just can't give it up altogether. I do think that I could have lost more weight I really think it slows it down for me ;-(

I'm not hugely into soft drinks but the water gets a bit much. I can drink the water but I sometimes forget when I'm at work

You can have coke zero as it contains no citric acid which affects ketosis. Diet coke does contain citric acid. But it should be drunk in addition to your water intake, your kidneys still need to flush through the toxic ketones that ketosis produces.

There is a sticky somewhere of drinks that are ketosis friendly. Like sainsburys do a strawberry and kiwi fizzy drink which is safe. Tesco do a strawberry flavoured still water which is safe.

If the ingrediants say citric acud its a no go, malic acid is safe.

Though its not cdc approved, many other vlcd's say its fine. Cambridge has to be firm and have clear guidelines so isnt likely to advocate cheats

I cant bear water, so I drink sugar free squash, which isnt allowed and may be slowing down losses but its the only way im going to get 3 litres a day down me
