Since a single regular soda gives far more calories than you shoud consume in a day, by itself, it actually makes some sense. Of course, getting a salad or even making their own burger at home would be more sensible yet...
A double quarterpounder with cheese and fries has more calories than you "should consume in one day"! If you are ordering this crap, don't "pretend" that you are on a diet by ordering the diet soda. You might as well indulge yourself with the reg. soda at least that way you won't be consuming appertain.
It's not solely about calories. Cutting out sugar is probably the single most important thing anyone can do to lose weight. Sure eating a double quaterpounder with cheese when you want to lose weight is dumb, but not consuming a ton of sugar with it is still a good idea.
