Revenge of MN/Mex

So I was at the office, drinking the rest of a diet Pepsi... my attempt to eliminate some sugar from my diet... when BLAM!!! that same bloated feeling that I had from the MN/Mex food plus stomach pain (not the I'm going to die kind of pain, but still somewhat severe).

Then it dawned on me that not only did I have the "Nachos" in MN, but also my fair share of diet Coke to wash it down. So, anyone else have bad reactions to diet drinks?

For the moment, I'm swearing off of aspartame; I've generally tried to avoid it, but not zealously. I think I may have a reason to get serious about it. Also, it seems to leave me thirsty & with a dry mouth.

I don't drink much pop. One or two cans in a month is a lot for me. And it is *never* diet. Looks like I should keep it that way...

Ha yeah, I usually don't drink diet, either. Thanks for the heads up about why :)
