Get Skinny With Diet Pepsi’s New Skinny Can

Most everyone’s new year’s resolution is to lose weight. Help make the task easier on yourself by cutting sugars and carbs where ever you can.

I used to be a big soda drinker and I know that is one area where I needlessly was consuming way too many calories from sugar and carbs. Luckily, Pepsi has created a new Diet Pepsi in a skinny can that has zero sugar, zero calories and zero carbs.

With its light, crisp taste, Diet Pepsi gives you all the refreshment you need, now in an attractive new skinny can that is slim and trim, just like you want to be! We’ve been told that the Skinny is going to be the hot (and diet friendly) new fashion accessory this Spring!

I got to try out a couple cans of the new Diet Pepsi this week and I love the can. It’s slim and trim and easy to hold.

As for the soda, I don’t usually drink diet soda because I don’t like the flavor of artificial sweeteners. In fact I hate Aspartame and I’ve heard reports of it not being great for your health. I guess if you are a diabetic though, it’s better to drink diet soda than regular, sugar-filled soda. If you are familiar with Aspartame and you like it, then you’ll love the new Skinny!

The new cans don’t hit retail shelves until March 2011, but keep your eyes peeled. And if you drink diet soda like Pepsi, leave a comment and tell us WHY you drink diet soda. I’d love to know!!

  1. Artificial sweeteners may help you lose weight (even though that is currently under debate), but the havoc they wreak on your body is so not worth it! I was a serious Diet Coke addict until a little over a year ago. I gave up all artificial sweeteners before my I started trying to get pregnant (I’m an all or nothing gal, so I even stopped chewing gum because it all has some sort of artificial sweetener in it), and I have never felt better! It’s best to switch to unsweetend or lightly sweetened tea and water if you are trying to cut back sugar and carbs from sodas…

    1. I personally do NOT drink diet soda or any kind of drinks with artificial sweeteners. I’m a crunchy granola type person myself and would sooner eat Kashi then stop at Dunkins.

      I only drank this soda to do the review and as I said in my review, I’m not crazy about it. Aspartame is not for me. BUT it is for some people. I’d rather see a diabetic drinking diet soda then regular soda…

      So I totally agree with you on the yucko of artificial sweeteners.

  2. Who cares what kind of can it comes in? Unsubscribing – this is apparently just an advertising blog.

    1. Well, you know it’s not an advertising blog! But point taken… I copy and pasted from the Pepsi press release and they are the ones pushing the new stupid can.

      I merely posted about this for those that are interested. If Pepsi isn’t your thing, then by all means, skip this post and drink something else! ;-)

  3. I have to agree with Lindsay … any kind of artificial sugars are bad bad bad for your body. You are better off drinking fruit juice or better yet EATING a juicy orange or granny smith apple, than drinking soda. I gave up soda a few years back to try and lose weight (no such luck but my problem isn’t calorie intake ..) and now if I drink even something as innocuous as Vernor’s for the stomach flu (helps with that icky queasy feeling)I feel it the next day with sluggishness and swollen fingers (sodium – have you looked at the content lately?!?!?) so its definitely NOT worth it. And diet drinks USUALLY taste pretty awful to me anyways .. so as Lindsay says, green tea or even a fruit herbal tea is sooo much better for your body, and few calories to speak of! Just my two cents worth :D

    1. Oh I absolutely agree with you! I’m a green tea girl myself. I gave up coffee and soda a while back to help with weight loss. I have lost 27 pounds since Sept (had a baby in Aug). Just 15 more pounds to go!

      And I might also add, that if I were going to drink soda, it would probably be Coca Cola, not Pepsi. :-)
