Dear Nathan,
I have had a struggle with the same thing. Switched over to the decaf diet coke and now every one is warning me about consuming to much artificial sweetner. Seems that there is a possibility that I could be frying my brains out with neutrasweet.<img src="/forum/images/graemlins/sick.gif" alt="" />
If I may I say one thing about your post on a positive note though...I have had the pleasure of serving the Lord through a jail ministry for a pretty good while, and have seen many young men who are probably in your age group get sent off to do some serious time.
Anyway, I seldom run into young men who profess a "coke" problem and mean sugar and caffine. Praise the Lord that He has kept you from so many of the terrible snares that satan seems to use against the young.
Stay strong in the Lord. And, oh yeah....
...HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! I salute you with my diet coke.<img src="/forum/images/graemlins/bravo.gif" alt="" />
