I just saw a little clip on Fox News that says diet drinks actually make you gain weight. It says that the brain senses the sweet taste yet recieves no input of calories and therefore slows down your metabolism. Seeing as how I drink several diet drinks per day, I now see why ive always had a slightly rounded posture. Thank god those three piece chicken boxes dont have to go!! ;-)

BB, my wife is a nurse, and is always concerned about my health, and diet. She has told me, several times, a 3 piece chicken box, peach cobbler and ice cream for desert, and a diet coke does not constitute a low calorie, healthy meal. However, there are a few recent studies that show the 3 pounds of chocolate I eat every week is good for my heart. :wink: :-D

BB, the latest study also reports that extended use of Diet Mountain Dew causes substantial hair loss. You should be the poster child for this finding. Dew it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :smt005 :smt005 :smt005
