    Oddest thing I ever have observed ā€¦ from a person in front of me berating her husband for starting to draw her a normal soda in a fast-food restaurant, ā€œIā€™ve told you a thousand times, I only want diet soda. I donā€™t need all those extra calories!ā€ On her tray were two double hamburgers with all the fixings including the extra mayo she ordered, and a large order of french fries, plus a side of chicken tenders and a hot apple pie ā€˜for desertā€™. And that was just for her ā€“ the husband had his own tray of food.

    Now, thatā€™s about 2,500 calories of food, and sheā€™s worried about 120 calories from a sweetened 16-oz soda?

    Ever notice; people that drink a lot of diet soda typically are not thin??? Our bodys donā€™t recognize artificial sweeteners (sucrose either, which is corn sugar, glucose it recognizes) the body stores what it doesnā€™t recognize asā€¦FAT!
