Are sugar substitutes addictive or is the thought of losing weight addictive.

Asked by MaryW (1731points) July 18th, 2010

My sister drinks several sodas a day with sugar substitute instead of sugar as the sweetner. She is gaining weight and is suffering migraines and diabetes 2. She will not stop. I have talked to her often. The only change she now makes is to say “Sorry, I know, I know.” to us before she drinks her 5 th or 6th for the day. So what do you think, is the sugar substitute addictive?
