Have you noticed that only fat people drink diet soda?

[Ggermanus]

There's an irony in that, right?

[Tdieseler]

i see many "skinny" people drinking diet drinks... thats the true irony right there... coupled with the fact that diet soda is nasty and from what i hear... unhealthy.
When i see a "fat" person drinking diet soda I just go..."really?, shortcut? no gym?"

[GingerGuy]

I have actually lol

[kaylaS91]

nope. I've seen mostly girls who seem to be very valley-girl like drinking coke-zero or diet pop.

[Ggermanus]

They probably think it's healthy, like purging

[kaylaS91]

yeah... people of all sizes resort to many different measures to lose weight that are not all that healthy. Not just diet pop, but they'll skip entire meals, cut carbs which in excess result in easy weight gain but are still essential for the proper functioning of our body, etc..

[Ggermanus]

Yes, that's true. We Americans have problems with our diets. 70% obesity rate

[Kiwedin]

lmao yes

[fueledbythc]

Aspartame is really toxic and bad for you and actually promotes weight gain. Diet coke? More like fat stocking coke.

I rarely drink anything with fructose glucose syrup or refined sugars. I enjoy black coffee, fresh fruit juice, beer, water and tea.

But then again I smoke cigarettes...

[Phoenix98]

Well I know for a fact that soda and diet soda are some of the main contributors to both obesity and cancer. So it doesn't surprise me at all, I always tell future clients or people that ask that if they want to lose weight cut out the soda it goes a long way to helping you lose weight.

[sweettckae]

Well I only noticed it because I used to work in retail and was always stuck on the freaking register, there was a lot of fat people buying soda, sometimes I just wanted to say "should you really be buying that?" ... but then theyd complain.. and its not my business, BUT mostly fat people drink soda! also the distributor for soda always told me "I never drink this garbage, I just sell it to the idiots and I mostly drink water."

Be smart people! Choose water!!

[kittykatg]

Well diet soda has been shown to cause weight gain because your body then craves all the sugar that it thought it was getting from the soda but didn't.

[SexyStudent]

No actually a recent study came out with the conclusion that people gain more weight drinking diet soda than regular

[Red_Arrow]

I have seen all kinds of people drinking diet sodas. And it makes sense for "fat" people who are trying to lose weight to drink colas which have little or no sugar. Have no idea what correlation you are trying to make.

[Ggermanus]

That it doesn't work

[Red_Arrow]

Not taking on the extra calories of about 45 grams of sugar in each drink certainly does keep from adding their fat content to you.

[Ggermanus]

That would simple carbohydrates

[Red_Arrow]

What?

[ThisDudeHere]

I have personally never even seen anyone drink diet coke. Like not even once. I don't know why it's on the shelves even. It tastes worse. And why bother drinking diet coke even? Not like it's any less of an acid.

*sips some coke hypocritically*

[justbanANNAz]

i dont waste my time looking at who's drinking what tbh.

[Toad-1]

I'd watch you drink anything ;)

[justbanANNAz]

@Toad-1 lol is it weird that I'm impressed u managed to turn that situation into something flirtatious? 😂

[Toad-1]

lol not at all :D ;)

[justbanANNAz]

@Toad-1 😏

[Toad-1]

ohh yeahhhhh! haha

[Ggermanus]

Not very observant , are you? Self absorbed or is it that you're texting while driving

[justbanANNAz]

oh yes, it's that I actually text while I'm driving with a self absorbed state of mind as i do my makeup and straighten my hair, occasionally checking the scores of the NBA.

[Ggermanus]

I knew it!

[ShaeNielson]

No? I only drink diet coke and I wouldn't say Im fat. It tastes almost as good as regular coke, but with no calories. I see no reason to drink a shit ton of calories and sugar, to get a slightly better taste.

[Ggermanus]

How about the fact the the artificial sweeter Aspartame is a neurotoxin?

[ShaeNielson]

That's when you have to choose between being fat or dying of cancer.
Honestly everything is poisonous nowadays, better to just enjoy it in moderations.

[Ggermanus]

Pitiful, isn't it?

[dem134]

Not so much an irony but diet soda has aspartame in it. Look it up.

[Anonymous]

I'm almost underweight and i drink diet soda. Are you stupid? I rarely see fat people drink diet soda.

[Ggermanus]

It's actually a fact, Einstien

[Joc4Position]

Hahahaha I think diet soda taste nasty usually. Might as well just get a water or lemonade or something.

[ConsultantIsBack]

Well Lots of people drink diet soda. I drink diet soda and I have sexy AF abs and get on stage wearing board shorts.

[Ggermanus]

And if the Queen had balls she'd be King

[madhatters4]

i've seen plenty of non-fat people drinking diet soda.

[madhatters4]

also don't know what's ironic about that. is ironic seeing an overweight person at weight watchers?

[teawrecks]

The only diet pop this fat girl drinks is diet coke, because regular coke tastes nasty af.

[ChromAzonyx108]

Personally I like coke zero better than regular coke.

[Jersey2]

That is a famous Donald Trump Tweet, 'I have never seen a thin person drinking a diet coke'.

[Ggermanus]

I didn't know that.

Hey Jersey Boy, do you recognize my Avatar? Ever been in the Pine Barrens?

[Jersey2]

Jersey Devil :) I used to party in the Barrens back in the woods with hundreds of people and a bonfire. We called that area Jungle Jim's. Good times.

[Ggermanus]

Yeah, it's Mother Leed's 13th Child.

Pine Barrens is a creepy as it is beautiful.

[Dtegesd123]

Im not fat but after drinking one can of diet coke, i feel bloated and fat

[AhGojira]

Not really. A lot of tin people that want to stay thin and still drink soda drink diet soda.

[AhGojira]

*thin

[Chadster]

No it's just a fact that diet pop with aspartame increases your appetite and also makes you retain fluid.

[SunnyCaliGirl]

Diet Soda has more sugar in it also compared to normal soda

[Red_Arrow]

Absolutely and totally wrong. No idea where you get that idea. for instance, regular Coke has 44 grams of sugar, while Diet Coke has 1 gram of sugar.

[PiscesEyes]

@Red_Arrow maybe she means artificial sweetners. Diet and sugar free snakes even flavored water have artifical sweeters such as aspertame that the body can't break down and makes you crave more sweets.

[SunnyCaliGirl]

@PiscesEyes Yup sure thing

[Red_Arrow]

@PiscesEyes - Recent studies have debunked the myths like diet drinks making you crave more. Recent better controlled studies have found things that are bad for you in diet sodas, but also in any sodas. But they also found that the correlation (not causation) between weight gain and diet drinks can be explained by the fact that people who are gaining the weight are using diet drinks as a way to fight the calories. So the weight gain causes drinking diet soda, not diet soda causes weight gain. See www.newsweek.com/numbers-truth-behind-those-scary-diet-soda-myths-222350 and www.webmd.com/.../diet-sodas-and-weight-gain-not-so-fast And in any case diet soda contains little or no sugar.

[bloodmountain1990]

Nope, i see plenty of skinny and average people drinking diet pop.

[Anonymous]

I've never seen that. I've seen fat people putting regular versions of Coke and other sodas in their shopping carts, never diet versions of them

[SlikH2O]

My mom isn't fat and she drinks diet soda.
So no, I haven't noticed.

[legalboxers]

a guy I knew drank 4 bottles of diet pepsi a day (the 1 liter)

[Mesonfielde]

I don't think that statement is true.

[Ggermanus]

It's a question, not a statement

[Mesonfielde]

I mean, you only attribute importance to ordering diet soda if the person is fat. This is called cognitive bias.

[idkwtftoputhere]

I don't see the correlation

[Ggermanus]

Nor the irony, I suppose

[idkwtftoputhere]

No I got the irony, I just don't see a general trend of fat people drinking diet soda over skinny people drinking diet soda. Lol

[_lululemonxx]

no. so do skinny people.

[CHARismatic110]

Not necessarily. But diet soda is gross.

[Anonymous]

omg, you're right >.<

[polkadotti101]

I'm skinny and I have coke zero, lol ;)

[Anonymous]

Who gives a shit let them be
