    Diet Pepsi is unhealthy lol. Actually it’s probably worse than regular Pepsi with all of those calorie cutting chemicals in it. Aftertaste of cancer causing chemicals mmmm

    yeah, what 74mangold said is spot on. Diet soda is worse for you than regular soda. Research has also shown that diet soda leads to overeating, so
    the 140 calories or so you are saving by having a diet soda (instead of a regular soda) quickly evaporate when the diet soda causes you to overeat afterward.

    https://www.theatlantic.com/health/...soda-how-fake-sugar-makes-you-overeat/258521/

    Researchers took 24 young adults, half of whom were habitual diet soda drinkers who consumed a sugar-free beverage once a day or more. The other half avoided diet soda. Hooking them up to brain scanning equipment, the scientists fed each group of study participants a stream of water sweetened alternately by natural and artificial sweeteners.

    Because the brain's reward center is also responsible for controlling energy intake and the motivation to eat, the scientists believe that their results help explain why diet sodas appear to drive people to consume more food than they should:

    One of the strongest links seen was diminishing activation of an area known as the caudate head as a recruit's diet soda consumption climbed. This area is associated with the food motivation and reward system. Green and Murphy also point out that decreased activation of this brain region has been linked with elevated risk of obesity.

    "The brain normally uses a learned relationship between sweet taste and the delivery of calories to help it regulate food intake," Swithers explains. But when a sweet food unreliably delivers bonus calories, the brain "suddenly has no idea what to expect." Confused, she says, this regulator of food intake learns to ignore sweet tastes in its predictions of a food's energy content.

    I changed my entire diet around and no longer gorge on mountains of delicious food at a time. I also cut out saucy stuff like you would put on chicken and ribs. That stuff is filled with nothing but sugar. Lived my entire life on the sauces. No more.

    Tonight I will be eating Chicken cut up & mixed with black beans & brown rice. This revs up my metabolism and I lose weight very fast. I think it's the brown rice which is extremely healthy. Instead of barbeque sauce, I've been getting into all these different types of spices which I put on the chicken.

    I don't drink. I will however have a nice joint rolled up. ha ha.

    Can't go wrong with chicken and rice. Classic combo.

    I'm gonna be making a pulled pork sandwich with a little slaw and some chips.
