There was a time when I would grab a 2 L bottle of diet coke after my swim. Of course, back then (not so long ago, about 15 years ago), that was but one of about 4 such bottles i downed a day. Plus, five- maybe six- cups (no wimpy sizes, here- 500 mL, for sure) of coffee in the morning and evening. But, now it’s just coffee and water that I imbibe.
