Originally Posted By Pixie Glitter Sorry to interrupt the thread, but this is the perfect place to post a rant that's been on my mind for months. I have always been a regular (i.e., non-diet) soda drinker. And for years I've listened to the diet soda proponents wax poetical about how much better diet drinks taste once you're used to them. "Oh, I can't staaaaaaaand regular sodas anymore! They're way too sweeeeeeeeeeeet!!" Fast forward to a few months ago, when I finally decided it was time to get serious about dropping the last few baby weight gain pounds. (My baby just turned seven last week--lol). So I made the switch to diet sodas. Ghastly. I could barely choke them down, but I was a woman with a mission. I tried all different brands, flavors, etc. I eventually discovered that fresh lemon juice squeezed into Diet Coke makes it almost bearable. And during the early weeks, and then months, of the experiment, I kept chanting the Diet Coke drinkers' mantra. . . it will taste better once I get used to it. Nope. Finally, after months of choking down this swill, I caved and had a regular Coke just to see if they still tasted great. It was like drinking nectar of the Gods. Sigh. I feel so cheated, so misled. But I've lost nearly fourteen pounds since summer, so I continue to soldier on with the blasted diet drinks. However, I no longer hold any illusions that they'll ever taste good. (And I've become a HUGE fan of C2, which is a terrific compromise between calories and taste). So I guess you could say I don't count as the person after tapdancemom--lol. Carry on.

Originally Posted By tapdancemom I posted under dancergirl, how close is that to what I usually post under.

(I put up my village and got a little area ready for my grandson to put one up when he gets here tomarrow. Hopefully that will keep him from "messin" with Nanna's.)
