have read the book but don't recall reading much about what one can drink... eg... coffee more than one cup? diet drinks? especially for the first 2 weeks.

My take on it is diet soda and coffee are fine, but switch to decaf after the first one.

so you are saying there is no limit on diet drinks or coffee if it's decafinated? Now I know tea has caffeine... is there a tea without caffeine?

I know you can by decaf tea bags, I'm sure it's out there in instant and premixed form too...

thanks, yes, neighbor just called and told me she has decaf tea, all kinds... so will have to stock up... Not too much into diet sodas or any sodas for that matter...Do drink a lot more water since i started on this diet... Guess I'm just looking for variety...

:lol: HAHA, join the crowd of people waking to pee in the middle of the night. If someone seems to be tired and losing weight, they must be doing the SBD...
