My Diet Tip of the Day

Obviously soda is bad for you and ideally you want to stop drinking it, but I would not worry about doing it right away. You are going to start changing your diet, you don want to do it too much you fail. So you can leave diet soda in there as your treat - temporarily. But limit it to two per day. Aspartame causes cancer first off and natural sweeteners trick your brain into thinking they are getting sugar but because nothing results from it you end up craving more sugar and sabotaging your diet because of it. Also sweeteners cause you to be bloated and retain water. Limit it to two per day to start... Then eventually wean yourself off after 3 months when your other food becomes your norm. The healthier you become the less you will desire that crap anyway.
