A member asked:

Can i still lose weight if i drink diet coke every day?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Diet drinks generally have no calories, so drinking them will not increase the number of calories you take in. Make sure you're eating a balanced diet with plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and protein.
