Re: IS having Caffiene really bad on this diet?
Get out your copy of DANDR and look up caffiene in the index.
Basically caffiene messes with your insulin levels and since the goal of Atkins (other than weight loss of course!) is to keep blood sugars level, it's not a good thing.
What you're going through right now is Induction Flu....it's withdrawal from all that yukky stuff, and it'll pass, I promise you.
The temptation is to just grab a cup of coffee or whatever to get that fix, but don't do it...get the monkey off your back and get rid of the addictions completely.
Remember that aspartame is also not allowed as per DANDR, so ditch the soda.
You will feel better...really you will...this will pass and you'll feel all the much stronger for it!

Hang in there.
I kicked the coffee habit when I started. It was a rough week! But it's been a year and a half and I don't miss it at all now!!

Re: IS having Caffiene really bad on this diet?
As the others said, stick with it! The first week really is the hardest... I found out that the first month was a big turning point. For me, it really became nearly effortless after the first month (because I'd formed some eating habits, I guess). There are times when you might doubt this WOE, but push through and believe in the diet. We're all losing/have lost weight on this diet. So can you!No stats. Not weighing anymore ever. Will post "before and after" pictures when I want to. The end.
Vigilance, not perfection.

You can do it!! Kick that caffeine habit! I did in the first week, and it was a bit rough. I had bad Induction Flu, and I missed my coffee. Now, I don't miss it at all, I have plenty of energy. Its worth it, YOU are worth it. I love your pic, you are so beautiful!!

Caffeine is a nightmare for the body. Big ups, bigger downs. You won't believe how much serenity comes from avoiding beverages and foods that produce extreme highs and lows. I know it is hard at first because it is a horrible addiction, but go for it. You will not regret it!Comment
