They say soda is bad in general. Does that mean if you are trying to lose weight that you stay off it altogether or will switching from regular to diet enough?

It is not the calories in the diet soda that is bad for you. The artificial sweetener in some (esp. aspartame), may cause some health problems when excessive amounts of it are consumed (anything in excess is not necessarily good for a person). Caffeine in sodas are not good in excess either.

I sure hope not. If so, they shouldn't call it 'diet', should they?
Regular soda has about 100-120 calories per 12 oz can, from the high fructose corn syrup. I recall hearing that if you drink 1 can of regular soda per day, you can gain 8 lbs in one year. Sounds about right.

most diet sodas have 0g fat, 0g carbs and 0 calories.
the trick is to still drink lots and lots of water
(if it has 0 calories and sugar has calories - than it's sugar free!)

it retains more water so u lose less weight, and it makes you hungrier since it tastes like it has alot of calories but doesn't.
