I started drinking diet soda because drinking regular soda like it was water was suboptimal. I drank regular soda because water in restaurants often tastes funny, or it comes out in tiny glasses that rarely get refilled. I hate coffee & tea. So when I stop drinking diet soda, I usually end up drinking more alcohol because I don't like or want everything else :P
