DITTO!!!

Be careful with the tea...it has the same amount of caffeine as coffee and if you are trying to give up the caffeine for a de-tox then you will need to give up coffee, tea, cola of All varieties. Those studies that said more people gained weight on the diet soda than the regular are mostly bull**** too coz they didn't do…

Well they say water is best. BUT if you are like me and hate to drink water then diet sodas are good. They are actually allowed on the optifast VLCD plan so they cant be all bad. One thing to watch out for is the acid. However if you drink tea or coffee or eat tomatoes oranges etc you will get acid too.

So have a protein bar instead. Still has carbs to keep sugar level up and has more protein to help you feel full longer and keep muscle production up :)
