Aspartame is not sweet...it acts on the brain causing you to think its sweet. In some people, this can cause their body to react as if it were sugar. Insulin is released resulting in rapid changes in blood sugar. The release of insulin allows the other food you ate to be stored as fat. So, if you had anything with that Diet Soda, it can cause stalling and weight gain. The rapid changes in blood sugar can cause you to crave carbohydrates and make you hungry.
