I need more energy!!!

I cut out caffeine two weeks ago. (I was an avid Diet Coke drinker and I don't drink coffee.) How can I gain more energy? I work in a classroom of nine 3 year old so I need it!!

No real solutions for you but I feel your pain. I'm a teacher too and a diet coke addict. I can quit for up to 6 weeks at a time then, as soon as end of term stress or something happens, it's the first thing I turn to. Better than a plate of cakes I guess but hardly ideal. I don't like coffee either.

I don't know how you feel about pills but gogoguarana.com has some supposedly natural pills that do contain some caffeine and some other things and are supposed to keep you awake. Better than pro plus!

Better balancing your meals in conjunction with better meal planning..

Do not load up on simple carbohydrate-filled foods in the morning.. get a good hefty dose of vegetables, protein, limited on fruit.. stay hydrated...

Make sure you are getting as much sleep as tolerated...
