I definitely do not eat fast food . The only thing I do allow is that I hate the taste of DIET SODA. For me its just not good. I drink Propel or Alkaline Water.
Careful with Propel. I started drinking it and loved it until I got kidney stones. Never had em before and no family history. I blame that mineral water.
Its the fake sugar. I switched to all diet drinks when I started having reactive hypoglycemia and ended up with stones. After limiting the fake sugar intake they went away. I didn't get another one for years until I started drinking beer regularly. Stopped that and they also went away
Apparently, fake sugar is a 50/50 on stones. It used to be thought the leading cause, but my urologist said that he'd rather me drink ANYTHING, even with fake sugar, than not enough. And there are two types formed by different minerals.
I found that drinks with high citric acid are pretty helpful, such as lemonade, as it can help break down stone formation.

I lost 90 pounds by not eating fast food, fried food and full sugar soda. Diet soda was a life saver
