Day 48 Report - down 1.5 kg so far this week - and a skeptical noteabout Diet Coke

Day 48 Report

The scale ticked down yet again today.

At the beginning of the week I switched from Diet Coke as my main
beverage to plain, unsweetened green tea. This is after seeing no weight
loss one week and just 0.5 kg the week after that.

This week I've lost 1.5 kg so far and the week isn't quite over yet. The
only thing I changed is what I'm drinking.

I am really beginning to suspect that Diet Coke adversely affects diets
in a way that has more impact than mere temporary fluid retention. Could
the listed calories be untrue? If it was just water retention I would
have suddenly dropped over a couple of days and then been flat again.
But instead I seem to be proceeding at a good pace all week long.

Anyway, the total loss so far this week is 1.5 kg = 3.3 lb. This is a
total loss, since starting, of 9.0 kg = 19.8 lb. Almost 20 lb!
