Re: day one

Looks great! Good job.

The 1/2 & 1/2 is technically not allowed, but I used it the whole time...didn't seem to affect me too much.

Eggs can have that affect sometimes...don't worry, typically after eating like this for the first few days you might go the opposite way. If you find that, try some higher fiber veggies or a fiber supplement.

Re: day one

You can use cream in decaf quite happily.

Re: day one

If you find yourself having headache's I would suggest you cutting out the decaf. I had them the first 2 weeks and someone told me decaf wasnt actually caffine free. If you have no problems with it go for it..but the heavy cream is the best for your coffee and it takes alot less of it than the half n half.
Good luck in your journey!!!

Re: day one

Cincy said it well. Use heavy creme if you use anything. Personally, I found that I wasn't as crazy about coffee after I started drinking it without creme and sugar so I switched to decaf tea.

Re: day one

After you rid your body of carbs and end the insulin crashes you will find that you sleep better than you ever have before and then you will not need caffeine to function. It is just a drug habit, although one that most people can't break because of their carb consumption and resulting insulin rollercoaster. Good luck!
