I stay away form caffeine. Say you just woke up from a nap (which makes you feel tired, haha) and you want a boost. Know anything safe that will pick you up? Of course, low carb.

When I wake up from a nap I tend to want something to eat, RIGHT AWAY! I go for a hunk of cheese or a few nuts. If I feel like I am going to have a problem keeping to a healthy portion size, I add a hot drink. (I don't do caffeine either.)

Only pick-me-up I know that works is coffee. :\ I'm decaffeinated though so I don't bring it home. But sometimes I'll get a mostly-decaf coffee when I'm out shopping.

I think hot black tea might work too, but it has a caffeine like substance in it.
