Hi Susan (just noticed that your name is Susan),
I've sent you a pm with the link and a cut and paste in case the link still doesn't work. Megan |

That was very nice of you to go to that trouble for me! I was quite interested, as I have a malignant, carnal relationship with Diet Coke with Lime. Now I see it for the tawdry affair it was. Sigh. I will mourn the break up, but try to move on with my life. Maybe I will be seduced by a glass of fresh, clean water tomorrow, and it will develop into a lifetime relationship.

...maybe squeeze some fresh lime/lemon juice into the water....very refreshing! It is a matter of retraining ourselves and our taste buds. I've found that after a while of having healthier alternatives you wonder what you ever saw in the former 'tawdry affair'.
Carbonated drinks are also reputed to prevent calcium absorption into bones which can of course lead to osteoporosis. So there's another good reason to end that Diet Coke affair! |

You DON'T want to have a sacral fracture. I've never had any thing so painful before. You think PN is painful. It's a walk in the park (yeah I know it's bad I have it) compared to the sacral fractures. And soft brittle bones are from osteoporosis. Anything that degrades bones should be advoided.

My bone density studies are okay so far, but that's not something I want to tempt fate with. So I will take your advice, Billye. I believe you about the pain of sacral fractures. But have you been able to hear me screaming in withdrawal this afternoon? And I think Coca Cola stock dropped.

Dakota,
You better taper the caffiene down. It can cause a really bad headache when you go thru withdrawals. But I'm glad you are stopping the cola's. Billye |
