You are underweight! You seriously need to put on some pounds, I don't care if you're "naturally skinny" or whatever. It is not healthy! I put a link to a Body Mass Index Calculator I used, it proves you are under.
Plus diet soda can cause cancer.

Maybe she's mad because cokes are expensive and she doesn't want you drinking her drinks.
I'm really skinny and all I drink is diet drinks but that's more because I drink a lot of soda and non-diet drinks will rot your teeth. Every once in a while I'll have a regular Barq's Root Beer but that's because I love root beer and the Diet Barq's isn't as good. So I drink them because they don't have sugar not because of the calories. I'm sure there's probably something in diet drinks that aren't good for my teeth but I've yet to discover it so I'm gonna keep drinking them.

I don't think diet sodas will hurt you unless you have a problem with the ingredients ( allergies or something) Most diet sodas have NO (0) calories so won't effect your weight.

Do not drink diet sodas!!! they have so many chemicals in them like formaldehyde and aspartame which both are harmful to the body and can lead to cancer. your mom is SMART! listen to her, she is looking out for you, not looking to save $$. (i'm a healthy person)

Shes probably worried that you're insecure about yourself,and thinks it'll develope into some eating disorder...
Did you ask her why she yells at you?
Talk to her about it
