Is it allowed in Phase 1 in place of coffee?? I find it a great (sweet) pick me up in the afternoon when I am dragging at work.

Diet soda still contains sodium which can make you retain water. Last week I didn't change my soda habits and I still lost weight, this week I'm cutting back on the soda (I used have have more than 1 or 2 a day) and we'll see. I have noticed that replacing my soda with water is helping to keep me from dragging, and when I do have a soda I find I'm hungery sooner than I am when I don't. Just a thought to look for. However, I totally understand the need for that caffinated beverage at some point in the day.
