Hello Pippaki:

It looks like you are doing impressively well with this plan! You must be doing it just as you should.

Some people do have a difficult time giving up their soda. Of course, water is the best choice (and lots of it!) Those that are able to make a switch drink Diet Rite, as it is caffeine free and made with Splenda/sucralose (preferred over aspartame).

Full caffeine beverages can trigger cravings for sweets and other high carbs. Most diet sodas contain aspartame, which causes many Atkins followers to slow down or even stall with their weightloss. Ultimately, the choice is yours. Best of luck to you now and in the future!
