I have had a diet Mt. Dew every day for the past 2 1/2 months I have been LCing. I don't thing that it has hindered my weight loss at all. Yes, I even drank it during induction. I will admit that I have cut back a lot. Before this WOL I would drink a 2 liter a day now I usually go through two 2 liters a week.

I haven't had any problems resisting any other sweets and I don't feel that it has caused any stalls for me yet. So I say if it will make you happy and it doesn't make you stall then you should have some diet softdrinks in moderation.
