^ Yeah, I've had type 1 (the non fat person type) since I was a teenager. I generally mix vodka with diet cranberry juice. But when they sold diet 7Up at the liquor store, I would buy it just for the sake of convenience. That's why I was thinking that maybe the SodaStream would be helpful to make diet soda when I need to.

As far as diet soda being on the "no list" for diabetics, I haven't heard that. It's not good for anyone and I generally avoid it, but sometimes you just want to drink something that has a little flavor to it. And when I'm mixing it with vodka, I'm already drink poison, so why not?
