RE : Diet Cokes
If you choose the decaf diet cokes, that is better. (See my post to Janet regarding caffeine). However, you mentioned that you have had a problem with water retention. 29 years ago I had a pregnancy related disease called toxemia. It causes the body to retain most of the water and becomes toxic in our systems. The nurses at the time informed me that carbonated beverages also encourage our bodies to retain water. And, I've noticed over the years since then that it seems to be true with me. With that in mind, I'm wondering if you gave up your Diet Cokes you might just notice less swelling from water retention - something to keep an eye on - maybe?

Sharon I wonder if they do contribute to my legs swelling? MIght be.
