Why do people order diet soda when ordering a 2500 calorie meal?

[pavyracer]

Triple bacon cheesburger with no lettuce and tomato supersize the fries and a 40 ounce fukking Diet Coke!

[lakerboy]

yeah just like when they go into the doughnut shop and order a doughnut and then get a coffee with no sugar. fukked up society.

[underthe total]

i order diet soda because i like the taste better, and because i dont like consume sugar, but you will never catch me eating a 2500 calorie meal.

[DeeWizzle]

Duh, they're on a diet.

[FuzzyDunlop]

Taste solely, I can't stand the taste of diet soda. I do drink my coffee black at home, but get it with cream and sugar out.

[THE PROFIT]

I rink diet soda because I try not to eat massive amounts of sugar when not necessary. I will drink diet soda with a salad or with a double whopper

[onetrickpony]

who did this?

[BIGDAY]

I stick with good old H2O.

[Coldpimpin]

They buy diet soda for the same reason they buy a P90X and stick it in their closet, it makes them feel good.

[playersonly69]

They are on a diet. Better to save that 250 calories than drink a coke

[Chandler]

hey 300 calories less is 300 calories less.

the question is. when is pavy's wife gonna stop eating fast food and drinking soda?

I mean we've seen the pics.

get that girl a gym membership pal

common

[bobby heenan]

i eat fast food maybe 8 times a year...and i dont drink soda....basically water, coffee, and whiskey on the rocks

-patting myself on the back barry horrowitz style-

[SoV]

who did this?

ttwarrior, allegedly.

[brucethebear]

One of lifes paradoxes.
I guess it is a way to make you feel better (in your own mind) about eating badly.

Personally, I would rather drink water than diet drinks - actually, I'd prefer to drink beer.....

I've always said the same thing. I always see this taxi driver here who starts his shift at 5 pm. He's 500 lbs... He always goes to our 7/11 here 2 min before his shift and this is what he buys there for his cab.. i swear, no joke.

1 Large tomato Pizza
1 onion rings
1 six inch sub
2 chocolate bars
1 ice cream
2 bags of chips
1 chocolate donut

and a Diet Coke..


the guy eats 3600 calories in 1 sitting, then decides instead of drinking a reg coke of 150 calories, he drinks a diet coke. Like it's going to make a difference.

Diet Coke is alot better than what it used to be

[dwaechte]

This criticism sure is logical.

[onetrickpony]

ttwarrior, allegedly.

sounds about right

Pretty obese individual I'd have to say. Never met a 500 lb person in my life though. Surprised he can drive a taxi cab without it tilting one sided.

[playersonly69]

Saving 300-400 calories is better than nothing.

[Skidcom]

The extra 200 calories really do matter

[Stacocakes]

I get the diet coke as well. Just found that it tasted better then regular for some reason

[theclutch7]

diet coke is the original formula, just diet, when they introduced the new coke some years ago they took alot of the kick out of it. people drink diet because of no sugar, you can eat a big meal with out sucrose.
answer your question?rick

[denn333]

its is purely psychological.

[LLXC]

Cause they're retarded...

[keenecharger21]

every calorie counts yeaa righht

[HauntingTheHoly]

Because they are diabetic and on a carb-counting system. This still doesn't allow for counting of soda carbs (sugars) b/c the glycemic index (rate at which the sugar is absorbed) is through the roof compared to any foods a diabetic eats.

Pay me 5 points.

[aceking]

maybe it just taste better .

anyway fat people should pay double for plane seats . imagine you are between 2 ttwarriors .

[icancount2one]

I've seen 4-500 lb. diet drinkers order their burgers with a side of mayo to spread all over the bun, don't forget the deep fried mozzarella sticks first.

I watch all the obese morons suck on splenda and diet sodas, and it just makes me sick. These people are aware that they've become disgusting globs of humanity, but they have no desire to fix this problem, because here in the states it's totally normal to be a disgusting sedentary glob.

[Wiggums5]

less sugar of course

[Flyers21]

You see it all of the time, maybe people feel less guilty eating a bunch of crap with a diet soda.
