Carbonation = Dehydrate?

If i am drinking diet soda that has no caffeine, nor sodium is it still dehydrating? I hear carbonation will dehydrate you?

edit: i'm drinking almost anything to get away from coffee..

No, carbonation won't dehydrate you. If that were true, swallowing air would dehydrate you as well.
