The diuretic effects of caffeine in moderation (1 or 2 drinks a day) is probably a bit overblown as long as one is paying attention to hydration otherwise.
A more realistic issue is that the soft drink might be replacing more nutrient rich beverages or just adding empty calories to the equation. I once had a client lose several pounds by just stopping his cola habit (1 Big Gulp a day 5x/week).
