Is a little diet coke o.k. on a low carb diet?

The reason I ask is because I haven't drink any caffine since Monday and I am doing pretty good onb this this time (except for the headaches) But one diet coke a week should not hurt anything will it? I plan to have some deviled eggs for my afternoon snack and I just need something other than water. I mean that is all I have been drinking. So what do you think aboutmy diet coke.

novella....diet coke is probably ok...but watch out for the aspartame. the only sodas without aspartame is Diet Rite. Try it and if you stall, quit.

What miss Brandi said

I didn't stall drinking diet coke, but Atkins recommended if you have to drink soda drink the ones with Splenda like Brandi mentioned.

I drink cases of the caffeine free diet Coke every week (the water in this town is gag-a-maggottous and I am usually too lazy to brew the green or other herbal tea). Never had a problem with it stalling weight loss (Mother MUST have her bubbly!) Have purchased ICE CREAM made with Splenda and it is really, REALLY sweet.

I'll bet knowing this makes you feel TONS better.
