Diet drinks on Cohen's

[weegie]

Hi,

I was just wondering if anyone knew if there was an alternative to Fanta Zero? I am unable to find it any stores in Sydney. I do drink the other Cohen friendly diet soda's now and again but would love an orange flavoured alternative.

Hope you are all having a great weekend,

Sandie

Fanta Zero is near impossible to find. I found it in Perth at 'The Reject Shop' just before Christmas and bought about 5 bottles ($1 for 1.25L bottle). Never seen it in any grocery store, think it may be discontinued...

It was better in theory, I didn't like it much overall. Gave a couple of bottles to my BF to drink. I prefer my pepsi light and occasional sprite zero. But yeah, it was nice for a change.

Hi Weegie,

I absolutely love the taste of pepsi max, no sugar and i think 100 times nicer than diet coke, also there is sprite zero, not too bad, diet dry ginger ale, and also there is a diet solo if you like lemon taste. I think you can get diet sunkist which is orange but i am not sure on that one.

You can get diet sunkist in the 1.25L bottles at Coles & Woolies

I do drink Sprite Zero but would just love an alternative treat when its a hot sunny day and just want something cool and fizzy to drink. I wasn't sure if Diet Sunkist was allowed on Cohens but i'll definitely give it a try.

Thanks very much for your help everyone

If it's not on your list, I'd check with your consultant.

I bought a different type of lemonade (scheweppes diet lemonade) on special and had her check it before I drank any and it turns out it was a no-no.

Just because it's a diet version/sugarfree doesn't mean it's cohen's friendly. Some have too much fruit base, wrong type of sweetners, too much caffine etc etc.

Hi Gremlin,

I will check with my consultant. Thanks very much for the advice.

My programme says nothing about Pepsi Max and Coke Zero - are you sure we can have it????

**Please say yes!!!!***

[sundaymorningstaple]

Don't know about Pepsi Max but Coke Zero has been allowed for at least two years (since I started the programme in Jan 0. And verified via Dr. C at least in Aus back in Sept 09.

I cannot find Diet Sprite in Singapore at all. I don't like Coke that much hence I havent been having much soft drinks, probably one can every week at the maximum. Coke Zero is er... super fizzy to me. I feel like I am drinking gas rather than a drink.

If anyone knows where to get Diet Sprite... in Singapore, please let me know!

I would love to know if Diet Sunkist is ok also. Will be watching forum with interest. I absolutely HATE Diet Sprite so something else to try would be awesome.

Pepsi Max and Coke Zero are both allowed. They are, I believe, new additions since the restriction on caffeine was lifted - before it had to be Diet Coke Caffeine Free or Pepsi Light to avoid caffeine.

Ta Jlou - that answer 5 stars!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Since you can't have milk in coffee and tea it seems this is the only Caffeine my poor body gets any more ... LOL.

Now the poor ol' coffee shop has closed down cause I never go there anymore... LOL

Hi everyone,

Quick question, does anyone know whether Diet Agrum is alowed? It is a schweppes drink... if not I will have to ask the clinic, but just thought I would check in here first!

Thanks

If it is not on your programme it's not allowed.
